What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Response Rate

    Response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with therapeutic success. Therapeutic success was defined as the cessation of visible seizure activity within 10 minutes with a sustained absence of visible seizure activity for 30 minutes following a single dose of MHOS/SHP615 without the need for additional rescue medication.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to 30 minutes post-dose

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Percentage of Participants Who Had Sustained Absence of Seizure Activity for at Least 1, 4 and 6 Hours

    Percentage of participants whose seizure event stopped within 10 minutes of single dose administration of SHP615 and who had sustained absence of seizure activity for at least 1, 4, and 6 hours were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to 1, 4 and 6 hours post-dose

  2. Number of Participants With Time to Resolution of Seizures (Convulsions)

    Time to resolution of seizures (convulsions) was calculated as time from IP administration to the end of the initial seizure or administration of rescue anti-convulsant medication, whichever occurs first. Initial seizure referred to the seizure that triggered the use of the IP. Number of participants with time to resolution of seizures (convulsions) from the administration of SHP615 were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)

  3. Number of Participants With Time to Recovery of Consciousness

    Time to recovery of consciousness (in minutes) was calculated only for participants who lost consciousness pre-dose at time from investigational product administration to recovery of consciousness post-dose or administration of rescue anticonvulsant medication, whichever occurs first. Number of participants with time to recovery of consciousness were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)

  4. Percentage of Participants Who Required Additional Anticonvulsant Medication for Ongoing Status Epilepticus (SE)

    Percentage of participants who required additional anticonvulsant medication for ongoing SE, 10 minutes after a single dose of SHP615 were reported.

    Measured: 10 minutes post-dose

  5. Percentage of Participants Who Failed to Respond to the Treatment With SHP615

    Treatment failure/non-responder was defined as participants with continuing seizure activity and/or the need for any additional rescue medication according to the participating healthcare setting protocol or guideline, for 10 mins or more after a single dose of the IP.

    Measured: 10 minutes post-dose

  6. Concentration of SHP615 in Plasma at 10 Minutes (C10)

    Concentration of SHP615 in plasma at 10 minutes were reported.

  8. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 10 Minutes (AUC0-10) of SHP615 in Plasma

    AUC0-10 of SHP615 in plasma were reported. Here "min ng/mL" was minutes nanogram per milliliter.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 10 minutes post-dose

  9. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 60 Minutes (AUC0-60) of SHP615 in Plasma

    AUC0-60 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 60 minutes post-dose

  10. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 180 Minutes (AUC0-180) of SHP615 in Plasma

    AUC0-180 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 180 minutes post-dose

  11. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of SHP615 in Plasma

    AUC(0-infinity) of SHP615 in plasma were reported.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose

  12. Time at Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of SHP615 in Plasma

    Tmax of SHP615 in plasma were reported.

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose

  13. Elimination Half-life (T1/2) of SHP615 in Plasma

    T1/2 of SHP615 in plasma were reported.

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 hours post-dose

  14. Number of Participants With Respiratory Depression

    Respiratory depression, included the following measures within 24 hours after administration of the IP: i) Persistent decrease in oxygen saturation to < 92 percent (%) measured at 10, 30 minutes, and 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose (i.e, < 92 % on room air for 2 minutes or more after dosing while monitoring [per healthcare setting protocol and/or the clinical judgment of the physician]) ii) Increase in respiratory effort such that assisted ventilation is used (bag-valve-mask ventilation or endotracheal intubation). Number of participants with respiratory depression were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)

  15. Number of Participants With Aspiration Pneumonia Reported as Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    TEAEs was defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose of investigational product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of IP. Number of participants with aspiration pneumonia identified as TEAEs were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)

  16. Change From Baseline in Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale at 24 Hours Post-dose

    Sedation-Agitation was assessed, using the "Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale" (SAS) by the following 7-point scale: 7. dangerous agitation; 6. very agitated; 5. agitated; 4. calm, cooperative; 3. sedated; 2. very sedated; 1. unarousable. Change from baseline in riker sedation-agition scale at 24 hours post-dose were reported.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours post-dose

  17. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. TEAEs was defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose of investigational product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of IP. Number of participants with TEAEs were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to follow-up (Day 8)

  18. Change From Baseline in Oxygen Saturation Percentage at 24 Hours Post-dose

    Oxygen saturation at baseline was measured and recorded on room air. The investigator had recorded the oxygen saturation, oxygen delivery system and amount of oxygen administered during the study. Change from baseline in oxygen saturation percentage at 24 hours post-dose were reported.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours post-dose

A Phase 3 study testing SHP615 in people with Nervous System Diseases, run by Shire at 23 sites in Japan.

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 6 inclusion and 17 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 31 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in Japan. 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 31 Jul 2020). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Response Rate (time frame: From start of study drug administration up to 30 minutes post-dose). 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 31 Jul 2020.
