Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Soticlestat as an Add-on Therapy in Children, Teenagers, and Adults With Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (NCT NCT04938427)

NCT ID: NCT04938427

Last Updated: 2024-08-21

Results Overview

MMD seizure frequency per 28 days was defined as the total number of MMD seizures reported during the period divided by the number of days during the period seizures were assessed multiplied by 28. Percent change from Baseline was defined as (frequency of seizures per 28 days during the full Treatment Period - frequency of seizures per 28 days at Baseline) divided by the frequency of seizures per 28 days at Baseline multiplied by 100.

Placebo
Soticlestat placebo-matching mini-tablets or tablets, orally or via gastrostomy tube (G-tube) or low-profile gastric tube (MIC-KEY) button or jejunostomy tube (J-tube), twice daily (BID), up to 4 weeks during titration. Participants continued to receive soticlestat placebo-matching mini-tablets or tablets for 12 weeks during maintenance. The total duration of the treatment was up to 16 weeks (Full Treatment Period). Soticlestat matching tapering was done to maintain the blind if participants decided to discontinue the treatment.
Soticlestat
Participants weighing \<45 kilograms (kg): Soticlestat, mini-tablets, at the dose of 40 mg to 200 mg, orally or via G-tube or MIC-KEY button or J-tube, BID based on body weight up to 4 weeks during titration. Participants continued to receive the dose that they were on at the end of the titration, for 12 weeks during maintenance. The total duration of the treatment was up to 16 weeks (Full Treatment Period) with the dose tapered down if participants decided to discontinue the treatment. Participants weighing ≥45 kg: Soticlestat mini-tablets or tablets with a starting dose of 100 mg BID followed by 200 mg BID and, then 300 mg BID, up to 4 weeks during titration. Participants continued to receive 300 mg BID for 12 weeks during maintenance.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline; Full Treatment Period: Weeks 1 to 16

Population: Modified Intent-to-treat (mITT) Analysis Set included all randomized participants who had received at least 1 dose of study drug and had been assessed for seizures for at least 1 day in the Full Treatment Period.

MMD seizure frequency per 28 days was defined as the total number of MMD seizures reported during the period divided by the number of days during the period seizures were assessed multiplied by 28. Percent change from Baseline was defined as (frequency of seizures per 28 days during the full Treatment Period - frequency of seizures per 28 days at Baseline) divided by the frequency of seizures per 28 days at Baseline multiplied by 100.

The Care GI-I is a 7-point Likert scale that the caregiver used to rate improvement in overall seizure control, behavior, safety and tolerability after the initiation of study drug relative to Baseline (before treatment with the study drug). The participant was rated as follows: 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse), and 7 (very much worse).

The CGI-I nonseizure symptoms instrument is a series of single-item assessments that the investigator used to rate improvement in the symptoms and impacts in select nonseizure domains (alertness, communication, and disruptive behaviors) since initiating the study drug. The participant was rated by the investigator for each domain as follows: 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse), and 7 (very much worse). Lower scores indicated improvement. Data for percentage of participants categorized based on the responses for each domain are presented.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 16

Population: mITT Analysis Set included all randomized participants who had received at least 1 dose of study drug and had been assessed for seizures for at least 1 day in the Full Treatment Period. Overall number of participants analyzed indicates the number of participants with data available for analyses.

The QI-Disability tool is a parent/caregiver-reported questionnaire evaluated the quality of life in children with intellectual disabilities. It contains 32 items covering 6 domains of quality of life: physical health, positive emotions, negative emotions, social interaction, leisure and the outdoors, and independence. Each QI-Disability item is rated on a Likert scale of: Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Often, and Very Often. Items were linearly transformed to a scale of 0 to 100, with higher scores representing better quality of life. Domain scores are calculated by averaging item scores. The domain scores are summed and divided by 6 to yield a total score. The total score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a better quality of life. A negative change from Baseline implies deteriorating quality of life. Mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) was used for analysis.

Overall number of participants analyzed indicates the number of participants with data available for analyses.

The CGI-I seizure intensity and duration instrument was used by the parent/caregiver to rate changes in intensity and/or duration of the most impactful seizures from the first assessment. The participant's symptoms were rated as follows: 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse), and 7 (very much worse). Lower scores indicate improvement. Percentages are rounded off to the nearest single decimal place.

Measure
Placebo
n=136 participants at risk
Soticlestat placebo-matching mini-tablets or tablets, orally or via G-tube or MIC-KEY button or J-tube, BID, up to 4 weeks during titration. Participants continued to receive soticlestat placebo-matching mini-tablets or tablets for 12 weeks during maintenance. The total duration of the treatment was up to 16 weeks (Full Treatment Period). Soticlestat matching tapering was done to maintain the blind if participants decided to discontinue the treatment.
