What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: Up to Day 390

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability Based on Dose

    Measured: Up to Day 390

  3. Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), Categorisation Based on Columbia Classification Algorithm of Suicide Assessment (C-CASA) Categories (1, 2, 3, 4 and 7) for Patients Aged ≥ 6 Years

    Measured: Baseline and from Day 0 to Day 360

  4. Change in Behavioural, Neurocognitive Measures Using Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scale (VABS)

    Measured: Baseline and from Day 0 to Day 360

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in Mean Weekly Number of Tonic-clonic and Clonic Seizures

    Measured: Baseline and from Day 0 to Day 360 and upon Study Completion/Withdrawal

  2. Number of Initial Treatment Responders Who Returned to Their Baseline Tonic-clonic and Clonic Seizure Rate During the Study (an Assessment of Tachyphylaxis)

    Measured: Baseline and from Day 0 to Day 360

  3. Percentage of Initial Treatment Responders Who Returned to Their Baseline Tonic-clonic and Clonic Seizure Rate During the Study (an Assessment of Tachyphylaxis)

    Measured: Baseline and from Day 0 to Day 360

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Clobazam in people with Dravet Syndrome, run by H. Lundbeck A/S at 9 sites in 2 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 12 inclusion and 0 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United States, Mexico. 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. 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 15 Feb 2017). 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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Up to Day 390). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 27 Mar 2017.
