Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluating Long Term Safety of Lacosamide (LCM) to Carbamazepine Controlled-release (CBZ-CR); Initial Monotherapy in Epilepsy Subjects 16 Years and Older (NCT NCT01465997)

NCT ID: NCT01465997

Last Updated: 2018-07-18

Results Overview

Treatment-emergent AEs were defined as those events which started on or after the date of first dose of SP0994 study medication, or events in which severity worsened on or after the date of first dose of SP0994 study medication. AEs which occurred within 30 days after last dose of study medication were considered treatment emergent.

Participant Flow

Enrollment started in May 2012 and concluded in January 2017 - 551 patients. Due to the political and civil unrest in Luhansk PAREXEL was not able to conduct further site visits to one site in Ukraine and to collect further data for 2 subjects,they were excluded from SP0994, leaving 549 patients in the Enrolled Set out of 551 initially enrolled.

A total of 549 subjects gave informed consent in SP0994 and were included in the Enrolled Set, 548 subjects received at least 1 dose of study medication and were included in the Safety Set (SS). Participant Flow refers to the Safety Population including all enrolled subjects who received at least 1 dose of study medication in the current study.
