General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of gabapentin in the 52 weeks as add-on therapy in the treatment of pediatric subjects with partial seizures (including secondarily generalized) when other antiepileptics do not provide satisfactory effects.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.

Dosage and administration details |
Subjects aged 3 to 12 years received oral solution (250 milligram(mg)/5 milliliter(mL)) at the dose calculated based on their body weight; 40 milligram/kilogram/day (mg/kg/day) for 3 to 4 years old and 25 to 35 mg/kg/day for 5 to 12 years old but not exceeding 1800 milligram(mg) per day. Subjects aged 13 to 15 years received gabapentin tablet at the dose of 1200 or 1800 mg/day. The dose was adjusted within the range of maintenance doses. Gabapentin could be increased if necessary with the maximum dose of 50 mg/kg/day for subjects aged 3 to 12 years. All subjects could receive gabapentin tablet not exceeding 2400 mg per day.

Number of Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (All Causalities and Treatment-Related) [1] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug was considered an adverse event (AE), without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Treatment-emergent adverse events: those which occurred or worsened after baseline. Severe AEs: those which
interferes significantly with subject's usual function. An AE resulting in any of the following outcomes, was considered to be a serious adverse event: death; life-threatening; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect. Safety analysis set: All subjects who have received at least one dose of the study drug.

Response Ratio | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
The Response Ratio calculated by the following equation : Response Ratio = (T minus B) divided by (T plus B), where T is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 52-week treatment period, and B is
seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 6-week baseline period of the previous study A9451162 (NCT00603473). Intent to treat (ITT): Subjects who have received at least one dose of the study drug and in whom the number of epileptic seizures used for efficacy assessment has been counted in both the baseline and treatment periods. n=number of subjects who have total number of seizures at each assessment time point.

Responder Rate | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Responder Rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with a 50 percent or greater reduction in the seizure frequency per 28 days for the 52-week treatment period in comparison with the frequency per 28 days for the 6-week baseline period of the previous study A9451162
(NCT00603473). Intent to treat (ITT): Subjects who have received at least one dose of the study drug and in whom the number of epileptic seizures used for efficacy assessment has been counted in both the baseline and treatment periods. n=number of subjects who have total number of seizures at each assessment time point.

Percent Change in Seizure Frequency | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Percent change in seizure frequency (PCH) was calculated as follows: PCH = 100*(T minus B) divided by B, where T is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 52-week treatment period, and B is
seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 6-week baseline period of the previous study A9451162 (NCT00603473). Intent to treat (ITT): Subjects who have received at least one dose of the study drug and in whom the number of epileptic seizures used for efficacy assessment has been counted in both the baseline and treatment periods. n=number of subjects who have total number of seizures at each assessment time point.

Adverse event reporting additional description |
The same event may appear as both an AE and a SAE. However, what is presented are distinct events. An event may be categorized as serious in one subject and as nonserious in another subject, or one subject may have experienced both a serious and nonserious event during the study. EU BR specific AE tables were generated using latest coding.
