Active clinical trials for "Epilepsy"

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single doses of AUT00201 at 100 mg or matching placebo in patients with myoclonus epilepsy and ataxia due to potassium channel mutation (MEAK).

Epilepsy is a common neurological disease which effects all genders, ages and geographic regions. Self-management refers to "the ability of the individual, in conjunction with family, community, and healthcare professionals, to manage symptoms, treatments, lifestyle changes, and psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual consequences of health conditions". Optimal self-management may improve self-efficacy, knowledge about epilepsy of people with epilepsy (PWE) and family, medical compliance and avoidance of seizure triggers. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the epilepsy app for PWE to improve self-management

The CADET Pilot will investigate the safety and feasibility of deep brain stimulation (DBS) to treat children with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome using a novel DBS device (Picostim DyNeuMo-1). Following a 30-day preoperative/baseline assessment phase, all children will have a neurosurgical procedure to implant the device. Implantation will be followed by a 30-day phase of no stimulation (the device is off / inactive) and then a six-month phase of active stimulation (the device is on / active).

The objective of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of adjunctive therapy of LP352 in adults and adolescents with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the adjuvant use of cannabidiol administered twice daily in doses of 5-25 mg/kg/day through the proportion of responsive patients; that is, participants with at least 50% decrease in the frequency of epileptic seizures in the last month of the trial relative to baseline (pretreatment with AEDs only). Primary end point(s): Rate of responsive patients; that is, participants with at least 50% decrease in the frequency of epileptic seizures in the last month of the trial relative to baseline (pretreatment with AEDs only).

This project aims to conduct a pilot study based on the targeting of the epileptogenic zone previously localized very precisely by stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG). SEEG is used as part of the pre-surgical assessment. It consists, thanks to the intracerebral implantation of electrodes in the brain of patients, to perform an intracerebral electrophysiological recording and thus to precisely explore the epileptogenic regions. In order to study the neuromodulatory and therapeutic effects of tDCS on epileptic brains, non-invasive techniques for measuring electrophysiological brain activity such as magnetoencephalography (MEG) and high-resolution electroencephalography (HR EEG) will be used. Finally, since epilepsy is considered to be a disorder of brain functional networks associated with disturbed brain connectivity, the effects of tDCS on cortical excitability by studying the variations in functional connectivity induced by stimulation will be studied.

This is a double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized study of dose-ranging safety, tolerability, exploratory efficacy of adjunctive EQU-001 for seizures using the continuous reassessment method in patients diagnosed with epilepsy.

The purpose of the study is to assess the long-term use of lacosamide oral solution dosed at 2 mg/kg/day to 12 mg/kg/day when administered to pediatric study participants with epilepsy who have completed NCT01964560 (EP0034) or NCT00938912 (SP848).

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of brivaracetam.

This proposal will evaluate an individual-use, patch-type telemetry device for simplified, single-channel EEG recording from human patients along-side the traditional in hospital wired EEG.
