About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multicenter Study Of The Efficacy And Safety Of Pregabalin As Adjunctive Therapy In Children 1 Month Through <4 Years Of Age With Partial Onset Seizures

This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 doses of pregabalin to reduce seizure frequency as an add on therapy in pediatric subjects 1 month to <4 years of age with refractory partial onset seizures. It is hypothesized that both doses of pregabalin will demonstrate superior efficacy when compared to placebo by reducing the partial onset seizure frequency and that pregabalin will be safe and well tolerated.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pregabalin Dose Level 1Drug

    Pregabalin liquid dosed daily three times a day in equally divided doses escalated to 7.0 mg/kg/day beginning at Randomization through Taper Phase then tapered to 3.5 mg/kg/day during 1 week Taper Phase

  • Pregabalin Dose Level 2Drug

    Pregabalin liquid dosed daily three times a day in equally divided doses escalated to 14.0 mg/kg/day beginning at Randomization through Taper Phase then tapered to 3.5 mg/kg/day during 1 week Taper Phase

  • PlaceboDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Log Transformed 24-Hour Seizure Rate for All Partial Onset Seizures During the Double-Blind Treatment Phase

    All partial onset seizures experienced during treatment phase were recorded by central reader during the 48 to 72 hour video-electroencephalogram (EEG). Double Blind 24 hour EEG seizure rate for all partial onset seizures = ([Number of seizures in double blind 48 to 72 hour EEG assessment] divided by [number of hours of video-EEG monitoring])*24. The EEG assessment was done at the end of the fixed dose treatment. For log-transformation, the quantity 1 was added to the double blind 24 hour EEG seizure rate for all participants to account for any possible "0" seizure incidence. This resulted in final calculation as: log transformed (double-blind 24-hour EEG seizure rate + 1).

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 14

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Responder Rate: Percentage of Participants With at Least 50 Percent (%) or Greater Reduction From Baseline in 24-Hour Seizure Rate for All Partial Onset Seizures During the Double-Blind Treatment Phase

    Responder Rate was defined as percentage of participants who had a 50% or greater reduction from baseline in 24-hour seizure rate during the double-blind treatment phase. Double Blind 24 hour EEG seizure rate for all partial onset seizures = ([Number of seizures in double blind 48 to 72 hour EEG assessment] divided by [number of hours of video-EEG monitoring])*24. The EEG assessment was done at the end of the fixed dose treatment.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Pregabalin Dose Level 1 and Pregabalin Dose Level 2 in people with Partial Onset Seizures, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 72 sites in 23 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 72 sites in Russia, Philippines, Hungary, United States, Ukraine and 18 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Log Transformed 24-Hour Seizure Rate for All Partial Onset Seizures During the Double-Blind Treatment Phase (time frame: Day 1 up to Day 14). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02072824, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jan 2021.
