Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term administration of adjunctive oxcarbazepine extended-release (OXC XR) in the treatment of seizures of partial origin in adult subjects with refractory epilepsy receiving up to three concomitant anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs).
    Protection of trial subjects
    All potential study participants provided informed consent. Subjects who completed the randomized, double-blind, placebo-control trial (804P301) and who continued to meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria were eligible to participate for this open-label extension (OLE) safety trial (804P302). Eligible subjects who enrolled and received study medication in this OLE trial were monitored for safety and tolerability throughout the study. During treatment at study visits and/or at the end of study (or early discontinuation) visit, the following clinical assessments were performed: physical and neurological exam, vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate, temperature), weight, clinical laboratory testing (hematology/chemistry), 12-lead electrocardiogram, urine pregnancy test (women of childbearing potential only), review of subject's concomitant medications and assess/record adverse events.

    Dosage and administration details
    Oxcarbazepine extended-release (OXC XR) was supplied in 300mg and 600mg tablets. For the first 4 weeks (Day 1 to Day 28) of treatment, subjects took 1200mg OXC XR (two 600mg OXC XR tablets) once daily. From Week 5 to Week 48 (Day 29 to Day 337), the total daily dose of OXC XR could be titrated up or tapered down in increments/decrements of 300mg or 600mg every 3 days between a minimum total daily dose of 600mg/day and maximum total daily dose of 2400mg/day. From Week 49 to Week 52 (Day 338 to 365), subject's total daily dose of OXC XR was then tapered down in decrements of 600mg/day per week until subject is tapered off OXC XR. In addition, during the 52 weeks (12 months) of treatment, subjects continued their adjunctive anti-epileptic drug (AED) treatment(s) (one to three AEDs).

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: There are no statistical data to report other than descriptive statistics (median, minimum and maximum percent change). Since this is an open-label extension trial, there is only one arm. Therefore, no group comparisons are possible. In addition, no statistical comparison(s) between treatment period and baseline were prespecified.
