Brief Summary

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

Study is conducted to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of lacosamide (LCM) in patients receiving LCM in SP0994 \[NCT01465997\]. The study will enable collection of additional monotherapy safety data, and will facilitate access to treatment until commercial availability for monotherapy use.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Lacosamide

Lacosamide (LCM) will be administered orally twice daily from 200 mg/day to 600 mg/day (at approximately 12 hour intervals in the morning and in the evening) in 2 divided doses. Medication must not be chewed and must be swallowed with a sufficient amount of fluid. The investigator may maintain the subject's LCM dose, decrease the dose in decrements of 100 mg/day per week to a minimum dose of LCM 200 mg/day, or increase the dose in increments of 100 mg/day per week up to a maximum dose of LCM 600 mg/day.

Subjects stopping LCM should be tapered off LCM at recommended decreasing steps of 200 mg/day/week. A slower taper (eg, 100 mg/day/week) or faster taper is permitted, if medically necessary; however, the maximum duration of tapering should not exceed 6 weeks.
