Measure
Placebo
Subjects took matching doses of placebo during both the Titration Period and Maintenance Period.
Zonisamide
Subjects started the Titration Period on a Total Daily Dose (TDD) of zonisamide 50mg (25mg capsules twice daily in the morning and evening) for a total of 8 weeks. Doses increased in 100mg increments up to a targeted TDD of 300mg with a range of 100mg to 500mg. Subjects entered the Maintenance Period on the same dose they were on at the end of the titration phase, taking the dose once daily (in the evening) or twice daily for a total of 8 weeks. Subjects were withdrawn if they required a TDD outside of the suggested range.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Month 4

Population: Intent-to-Treat Population. Percentages are based on the number of subjects present in the Maintenance Phase.

Seizure frequency was assessed by a seizure diary, maintained daily from Baseline, in which the subject recorded the occurrence of any seizure. A responder is a subject who had at least a 50 percent or greater reduction in the seizure frequency of all seizures during the last 28 days of the Maintenance Period compared to the Baseline Period seizure frequency. Due to the exploratory nature of the objective for efficacy and the truncated study size, analysis of efficacy was based on observed cases, without imputation for missing data. As a result, there are some variations in sample sizes for efficacy at different visits, depending on if particular efficacy variables were missing for particular visits.
