Active clinical trials for "Epilepsy"

The purpose of this study is to determine if low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is safe and feasible for treating depressive symptoms in patients with epilepsy. Patients will receive an accelerated protocol of TMS consisting of three consecutive days of treatment. Patients will have in-person follow up visits after one month and again after six months.

EP0060 is a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intravenous (iv) Lacosamide (LCM) in pediatric subjects >= 1 month to < 17 years of age with epilepsy.

This study evaluates the pharmacokinetic and safety of NRL-1 in epilepsy subjects. Subjects will receive a single intranasal dose of NRL-1 of either 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg or 20 mg and will be based on the subject's body weight.

This study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the investigational drug UCB0942in adult subjects with drug-resistant focal epilepsy across multiple centers in Europe.

The purpose of the study is to characterize the dose-response relationship with respect to efficacy of Padsevonil administered concomitantly with up to 3 anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) for treatment of observable focal-onset seizures in subjects with drug-resistant epilepsy.

The prevalence of epilepsy is about 0.5% to 1% worldwide, with high disability and mortality rate. The 128-channel electroencephalograph (EEG), combined with BESA dipole localization method, is able to provide more specific information about the brain activity and find out the epileptogenic focus. Based on this novel EEG recording method, cathode transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) targeting the epileptogenic focus can be used to decrease the excitability of the cortex, thus reducing the frequency of seizures. A single-center double-blinded randomized controlled and open-label extension trial will be carried out to study the efficacy of 128-channel electroencephalograph combined with BESA dipole localization method and Intervention on brain waves for epilepsy.

The trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel internet intervention (Desiconnect), which was designed to introduce relevant cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to Persons with Epilepsy (PwE) and comorbid depression. Therefore, 200 PwE and a current depressive disorder (major depressive disorder or dysthymic disorder) will be recruited and randomized to two groups: (1) a control group, in which they may engage with any epilepsy treatment (Care-as-Usual, CAU) and receive access to Desiconnect after a delay of three months (i.e., CAU/wait list control group), or (2) to a treatment group that immediately receives six-month access to Desiconnect and may also use CAU. The primary outcome measure is the depression scale of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), collected at three months post-baseline.

Assessment of long-term safety and efficacy of oral lacosamide (LCM) as an adjunctive therapy for uncontrolled primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (PGTCS) in subjects >= 4 years of age with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). This study will enroll subjects from the LCM SP0982 [NCT02408523] study.

This Phase 2 open-label, two-way study was conducted in adult subjects with epilepsy who were on stable regimens of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) and who were admitted to an Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU), General Clinical Research Center (GCRC), or similar facility for evaluation of their seizures. All subjects received a single DBF 12.5 mg dose during the Interictal State and a single DBF 12.5 mg dose during the Ictal/peri-ictal state with at least 14 days washout between the 2 doses.

A study of a drug to be used in addition with another drug to treat adults with Uncontrolled Partial-onset Seizures
