End point title |
Percentage of participants experiencing at least one Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) from the beginning at Entry Visit (EV) of the Evaluation Period to End of Safety Follow-Up Visit during the EP0073 study [1] | ||||||||
End point description |
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
Percentage of participants experiencing at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (reported by the participant and/or caregiver or observed by the Investigator or inpatient staff) are reported. The Safety Set (SS) consisted of all enrolled study participants who took at least 1 dose of UCB0942 in the EP0073 study.

End point description |
A 75% responder is defined as a participant with a ≥75% reduction in partial-onset seizure (POS) frequency for observable focal-onset seizures (Type IA1, IB, and IC) relative to the 2-week Prospective Outpatient Baseline Period defined in EP0069. It was calculated using formula: Count of 75% responders during the Period/ number of participants during the Period × 100. The full analysis set (FAS) consisted of all enrolled study participants who took at least 1 dose of UCB0942 and completed at least 1 seizure diary during the Evaluation Period in EP0073.

75% Responder Rate by 3-month interval (Month >42-45) over the Evaluation Period [16] | ||||||||
End point description |
A 75% responder is defined as a participant with a ≥75% reduction in partial-onset seizure (POS) frequency for observable focal-onset seizures (Type IA1, IB, and IC) relative to the 2-week Prospective Outpatient Baseline Period defined in EP0069. It was calculated using formula: Count of 75% responders during the Period/ number of participants during the Period × 100. The FAS consisted of all enrolled study participants who took at least 1 dose of UCB0942 and completed at least 1 seizure diary during the Evaluation Period in EP0073. Here, number of participants analyzed included those participants who were evaluable for the assessment.

Percent change in partial-onset seizure frequency relative to the Baseline Period defined in EP0069 by 3-month intervals over the Evaluation Period of the EP0073 study | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Percent change from Baseline in seizure frequency for observable focal-onset seizures (Type IA1, IB, and IC) to the corresponding interval was calculated using the following formula: change from Baseline in the 28 day adjusted seizure frequency/28 day adjusted seizure frequency during the EP0069 2- week Prospective Outpatient Baseline Period × 100. The numerator is calculated by subtracting the 28-day adjusted seizure frequency during the Period of interest from the 28-day adjusted seizure frequency during the EP0069 2-week prospective outpatient Baseline Period.

The number of seizure-free days is defined as the total number of days within an analysis Period or time interval for which no seizures were reported. The percentage of seizure-free days is to be computed as 100 times the number of seizure-free days divided by the number of days for which daily diary data was available in the specified analysis Period. Days without the corresponding daily diary data (ie, “Not Done” is ticked) are not used in these computations.

Changes in Quality of Life in Epilepsy 31-P (QOLIE-31-P) total score from Visit 3 (Week 2) of EP0069 through the assessment of the Evaluation Period of EP0073 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
The QOLIE-31-P includes 30 items grouped into 7 multi-item subscales (seizure worry, overall quality of life, emotional well-being, energy/fatigue, cognitive functioning, medication effects, and social function) and a health status item. Individual responses for the 30 subscale items are rescaled to 0 to 100 with higher scores reflecting better functioning. Each subscale score is then calculated by summing rescaled responses for that subscale and dividing by number of items with non-missing response. Responses for health status item are multiple of 10 ranging from 0 to 100 with higher score corresponding to better health status. The QOLIE-31-P total score was calculated as weighted sum of the subscale scores which ranges from 0 to 100 with higher score reflecting better functioning. FAS population was used. Here, number of participants analyzed included those participants who were evaluable for the assessment and ‘n’ signifies participants who were evaluable at specified time points.

Reporting group description |
All enrolled participants continued the same UCB0942 dose which they were receiving during last visit of study EP0069 and the dose could be further increased or decreased in participants to optimize the drug tolerability and seizure control for each participant. Increases or decreases to the dose of UCB0942 was made in steps not exceeding 200 mg/day per week however, 800 mg/day to 500 mg/day change was allowed. Daily UCB0942 film-coated tablets were administered orally in doses of 100 mg (50 mg bid), 200 mg (100 mg bid), 400 mg (200 mg bid), 600 mg (300 mg bid), or 800 mg (400 mg bid) for up to approximately 5 Years. Participants formed the Safety Set (SS). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Date |
Amendment |
||
10 Dec 2015 |
The following major changes were introduced in Protocol Amendment 1:
• A PSL 25mg tablet, which was previously unavailable, was introduced and a PSL maintenance dose of 100mg (50mg bid) was permitted to allow investigators to explore the range of doses from 100mg to 800mg per day using bid dosing.
• Pharmacokinetic (PK) blood samples for the measurement of plasma concentration of PSL and metabolites were added at several visits. These samples were taken to monitor study
participant compliance. Exploratory population PK analysis were performed together with evaluation of longer-term (up to 1 year) exposure-response relationships.
• No tapering from the EP0069 dose before the first dose was administered in EP0073 was specified.
• If the study participant had active suicidal ideation with a specific plan as indicated by a positive response (“Yes”) to Question 5 of the “Since Last Visit” version of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), the study participant was required to be referred immediately to a Mental Healthcare Professional and must have been withdrawn from the study. |
||
14 Nov 2016 |
The following changes were introduced in Protocol Amendment 2:
• The protocol information pertaining to potential drug-induced liver injury (PDILI) (exclusion criteria, withdrawal criteria, AEs of special interest, and assessment of safety) was updated
based on new standard language, which was applied across all protocols at UCB. Note that these additions did not reflect a change in the known safety of the compound. • The estimate of the approximate number of study participants from EP0069 who would be included in EP0073 was increased to approximately 40. • Additional contraceptive requirements for the partners of male study participants were removed (based on nonclinical data). |
||
09 Nov 2017 |
The primary purpose of this substantial amendment was to change the frequency for the ECG assessments after Year 2. Of note, no study participants had reached this milestone at the time of this protocol amendment, and therefore no impact on the safety analysis was expected. In addition, following the annual revision of the investigator’s Brochure 2017 for PSL, the following prohibited concomitant medications were added in this protocol: strong CYP2C19 inhibitors, strong CYP2C19 inducers, and CYP2C19 sensitive substrates. As the recruitment for EP0073 had completed, study participants who were already taking these medications prior to Amendment 3, may have continued to do so, but under close monitoring.
The other major changes in this amendment were as follows:
• A study participant with a benefit-risk ratio of 0 to 4 (on a scale from 0 to 10) was required to be withdrawn from the study. • AEs of special interest were required to be immediately reported. • The Pharmacokinetic Per-Protocol Set (PK-PPS) that was used for the PK analysis was defined. |
