5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo controlled, 2-part study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ZX008 when used as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled seizures in children and adults with cyclin-dependent kinase like-5 (CDKL5) deficiency disorder (CDD).
Detailed Description
This is a 2-part multicenter trial. Part 1 is a 20-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose, parallel-group study to examine the efficacy and safety of ZX008 as an adjunctive therapy (to existing concomitant treatment with antiepileptic treatments [AETs]) in children and adults with a CDD diagnosis and uncontrolled seizures. Part 1 of the study is 20 weeks in duration and will consist of the following stages: Baseline Period (ie, Baseline [BL]; 4 weeks including the Screening Visit and baseline observation), Titration Period (ie, Titration; 2 weeks), Maintenance Period (ie, Maintenance; 12 weeks), and a 2-week Transition Period (ie, Transition; 2 weeks) to the open-label starting dose. Part 2 is a 54-week, open-label, flexible-dose, long-term extension for subjects who complete Part 1. Part 2 includes an Open-Label Extension (OLE) Treatment Period (52 weeks) with a Taper Period (ie, Taper; 2 weeks). The primary study analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ZX008 in children and adults with CDD will be based on Part 1 data in all randomized subjects.

12. IPD Sharing Statement

Plan to Share IPD
Yes
IPD Sharing Plan Description
Data from this trial may be requested by qualified researchers six months after product approval in the US and/or Europe, or global development is discontinued, and 18 months after trial completion. Investigators may request access to anonymized individual patient-level data and redacted trial documents which may include: analysis-ready datasets, study protocol, annotated case report form, statistical analysis plan, dataset specifications, and clinical study report. Prior to use of the data, proposals need to be approved by an independent review panel at www.Vivli.org and a signed data sharing agreement will need to be executed. All documents are available in English only, for a pre-specified time, typically 12 months, on a password protected portal. This plan may change if the risk of re-identifying trial participants is determined to be too high after the trial is completed; in this case and to protect participants, individual patient-level data would not be made available.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
Data from this trial may be requested by qualified researchers six months after product approval in the US and/or Europe or global development is discontinued, and 18 months after trial completion.
IPD Sharing Access Criteria
Qualified researchers may request access to anonymized IPD and redacted study documents which may include: raw datasets, analysis-ready datasets, study protocol, blank case report form, annotated case report form, statistical analysis plan, dataset specifications, and clinical study report. Prior to use of the data, proposals need to be approved by an independent review panel at www.Vivli.org and a signed data sharing agreement will need to be executed.
