Changes From Baseline in Cognition as Measured by the Leiter-R at the Indicated Time Points
he Leiter International Performance Scale or simply Leiter is an intelligence test for children and adolescents, with norms ranging from 2 to 20 years. For all ages, it yields an intelligence quotient (IQ) and a measure of logical ability. It is comprised of ten subtests, seven of which were relevant to the 12-18 years age group. The administration time was approximately 40 minutes. During the study, only the parent/caregiver completed this questionnaire while the participants were within the age range (i.e. <20 years). Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). The parent study did not measure baseline cognition, behavior, and learning so changes from baseline were not available for participants in this study.
Changes From Baseline in Behaviour as Measured by the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) at the Indicated Time Points
The CBCL is a widely used parent report questionnaire identifying behavioural and emotional problems in children. The checklist is comprised of a number of statements about the child's behavior, e.g. acts too young for his/her age. Responses were recorded on a likert scale: 0 = not true, 1 = somewhat or sometimes true, 2 = very true or often true. The preschool checklist contained 100 questions and the school-age checklist contained 120 questions. During the study, only the parent/caregiver completed this questionnaire while the participants were within the age range (i.e. <18 years). Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). The parent study did not measure baseline cognition, behavior, and learning so changes from baseline were not available for participants in this study.
Changes From Baseline in Learning as Measured by the Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning , 2nd Edition (WRAML2) at the Indicated Time Points
The WRAML2 is a standardized test that measures an individual's memory functioning. It evaluates both visual and verbal, immediate and delayed memory ability along with the acquisition of new learning. The WRAML2 core battery is composed of two verbal, two visual, and two attention concentration subtests, yielding a verbal memory index, a visual memory index and an attention-concentration index. Together, these tests yield the general memory index. The administration time is approximately 40 minutes. During the study, this test was administered if the participant was within the age range (i.e. >9 years). Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled. Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). The parent study did not measure Baseline cognition, behavior, and learning so changes from Baseline were not available for participants in this study.
Number of Participants With Sexual Maturation Based on the Tanner Stage I to Stage V of Puberty in Participants <=18 Years Old Throughout the Study
The number of participants who advanced a stage between the eligibility visit and the EW Visit was recorded. Tanner stage I is defined as no pubic hair at all (prepubertal Dominic state); stage II is defined as a small amount of long, downy hair with slight pigmentation at the base of the penis and scrotum (males) or on the labia majora (females); stage III is defined as when the hair becomes more coarse and curly, and begins to extend laterally; stage IV is defined as adult-like hair quality, extending across pubis but sparing medial thighs; and stage V is defined as when the: hair extends to medial surface of the thighs. The investigator assessed the participant's sexual development in participants <18 years old based on the Tanner Stages of Puberty.
Number of Days of Exposure to Retigabine/Ezogabine TID by Individual Participant
Total number of days each participant was exposed to Retigabine/Ezogabine are recorded here.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Percent Change From Baseline in the Seizure Frequency at the Indicated Time Points
The percentage reduction from Baseline in the seizure frequency was summarized using descriptive statistics. The frequencies and percentages were computed for a reduction in seizure frequency of >50% as well as for a 100% reduction (seizure-free). Increases of >50% in seizure frequency was also summarized. The percentage of seizure-free days wasere also analyzed. Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Number of Participants Who Were Responders During the Treatment Period
A ''responder'' is defined as >50% reduction from Baseline in the seizure frequency. Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Clinical Global Impression- Improvement (CGI-I) Assessment at the Indicated Time Points
The Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scale provided an overall clinician-determined summary measure. It had 2 components: the CGI-Severity of Illness (CGI-S) scale and the CGI- Improvement (CGI-I) scale which rated the change from Baseline. The CGI-I scale scores range from 0 to 7 and are interpreted as 0=not assessed, 1=very much improved, 2=much improved, 3=minimally improved, 4=no change, 5=minimally worse, 6=much worse, 7=very much worse. Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Clinical Global Impression-Severity of Illness (CGI-S) Assessment at the Indicated Time Points
The Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scale provided an overall clinician-determined summary measure. It had 2 components: the CGI-Severity of Illness (CGI-S) scale and the CGI-Improvement (CGI-I) scale which rated the change from Baseline. The CGI-S was a 7-point scale that required the investigator to rate the severity of the participant's epilepsy relative to the investigator's past experience with other participants with the same diagnosis. The CGI-S scale scores range from 0 to 7 and are interpreted as 0=not assessed, 1=normal, 2=borderline, 3=mild, 4=moderate, 5=marked, 6=severe, 7=extremely severe. Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Change From Baseline in Child Health Status as Measured by the Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) in Participants <18 Years Old at the Indicated Time Points
The CHQ comprises scales specifically developed for children and adolescents aged five years and older. The CHQ assesses a child's physical, emotional, and social well-being from the perspective of a parent or guardian. The questionnaire was completed by a parent/caregiver and administration time was approximately 30 minutes. The parent/caregiver completed this questionnaire while the participant was within the age range (i.e. <18 years). Baseline was the first pre-Retigabine assessment conducted in the parent study GSK113284 (NCT014945840). Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) Following Oral Administration of Retigabine/Ezogabine at the Indicated Time Points
AUC is defined as the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve, reflects the actual body exposure to drug after administration of a dose of the drug and is expressed in milligram*hour per Liter (mg*h/L). Blood samples for population PK analysis of retigabine/ezogabine were taken at clinic visits where routine clinical laboratory samples were also taken. Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled.
Apparent Clearance (CL/F) Following Oral Administration of Retigabine/Ezogabine at Indicated Time Points
Blood samples for population pharmacokinetic analysis of retigabine/ezogabine were taken at clinic visits where routine clinical laboratory samples were also taken. CL/F, where CL is the calculated as dose/AUC and F is the oral bioavailability of the drug. Because the study was terminated prematurely and the sample size is small, summary statistics were not compiled
