Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

EP0024 is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intravenous (iv) lacosamide (LCM). Adjunctive iv LCM therapy (200 mg/day to 400 mg/day) will be administered for 5 days as replacement for oral LCM tablets in Japanese adults with partial-onset seizures.

Lacosamide (LCM)

On Day - 1, LCM oral tablets were administered in accordance with each subject's LCM dosage regimen in EP0009 (NCT01832038). The oral tablets were taken from EP0009 supply.

During the Treatment Period, subjects received a 30-minute infusion of intravenous (iv) LCM twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening, for 5 days.

The daily dose of iv LCM was the same as the subject's daily dose of oral LCM in EP0009 (200 - 400 mg/day).
