Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Mean percentage in monthly seizure frequency during the maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of patients considered treatment responders.
Longest seizure free interval (i.e., seizure free days).
Change in the severity of symptoms of TSC as measured by Caregiver Global Impression of Change (CGIC) score during maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30) compared to Baseline.
Change in the Sheehan Disability Scale during maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30) compared to baseline.
Safety of the study drug in children, adolescents and young adults with seizures associated with TSC.
Measured in terms of incidence, nature, and severity of adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, clinical chemistry, hematology, electrocardiograms, and urinalysis, as well as treatment delays, dose reductions, and dose discontinuations. In addition, suicidal ideation will be assessed using S-STS.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study intends to show that basimglurant provides effective seizure control in children, adolescents and young adults with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC).
Detailed Description
The study drug (basimglurant) is a potent inhibitor of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) which controls a wide range of processes in the brain, spinal cord, retina, and peripheral nervous system. In animal studies, the inhibition of this receptor has shown therapeutic potential for the treatment of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). This receptor's inhibition decreases the frequency of seizures. In previous clinical trials, the study drug has shown an advantageous safety profile in children and adolescents. The objective of this study is to find an optimal dose at which the study drug will lead to a decrease in the duration, frequency and intensity of seizures in children, adolescents and young adults with TSC, while being well tolerated. All patients who positively respond and tolerate the medicine will be offered the possibility to continue in an open label extension.
