About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Non-Interventional, Observational, Multicenter Study to Investigate Dosage, Effectiveness, and Safety of Perampanel When Used as First Adjunctive Therapy in the Routine Clinical Care of Subjects >=12 Years With Partial Onset Seizures With or Without Secondary Generalization or With Primary Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures Associated With Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the retention rate of perampanel as a reliable proxy for overall effectiveness and tolerability in participants aged at least 12 years who are prescribed perampanel (for partial onset seizures [POS] with or without secondary generalization [SG] or for primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures [PGTCS] associated with idiopathic generalized epilepsy [IGE] as first adjunctive to antiepileptic drug (AED) monotherapy as part of their routine clinical care.

  • PerampanelDrug

    Also called Fycompa

    Perampanel oral tablets or oral suspension.

Study groups in NCT04252846
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PerampanelParticipants with a diagnosis of epilepsy (POS with or without SG or PGTCS associated with IGE) will initiate treatment with perampanel as first adjunctive treatment as per the clinical judgment of the treating physician as part of routine clinical care. All participants will be observed prospectively for up to 12 months after initiation of perampanel treatment.
Receives: Drug: Perampanel

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Retention Rate at Month 12

    Retention rate at 12 months is defined as the percentage of participants remaining on perampanel at 12 months.

    Measured: Month 12

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Retention Rate at Month 6

    Retention rate at 6 months is defined as the percentage of participants remaining on perampanel at 6 months.

    Measured: Month 6

  2. Pragmatic Seizure-free Rate at Months 6 and 12

    Pragmatic seizure-free rate is defined as the percentage of participants (based on all study participants) who are free of all seizures at 6 months (and for the previous 3 months) and at 12 months (and for the previous 6 months).

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  3. Completer Seizure-free Rate at Months 6 and 12

    Completer seizure-free rate is defined as the percentage of participants (based on a subset of study participants who remain on perampanel treatment at 6 and 12 months) who are free of all seizures at 6 months (and for the previous 3 months) and at 12 months (and for the previous 6 months), respectively.

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  4. Median Percent Change From Baseline in Seizure Frequency at Months 6 and 12

    Seizure frequency change will be measured at 6 months (averaged over the previous 3 months) and at 12 months (averaged over the previous 6 months).

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  5. 50 Percent (%) Responder Rate at Months 6 and 12

    50% responder rate is defined as the percentage of participants with greater than or equal to (>=) 50% reduction in seizure frequency (averaged over the 3 months before the 6-month visit, and over the 6 months before the12-month visit) relative to baseline.

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  6. Seizure Worsening Rate at Months 6 and 12

    Seizure worsening rate is defined as the percentage of participants with >=10% increase in seizure frequency (averaged over the 3 months before the 6-month visit, and over the 6 months before the 12-month visit) relative to baseline.

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  7. Last Dose of Perampanel at Months 6 and 12

    Measured: Months 6 and 12

  8. Percentage of Participants by Perampanel Dose Titration Speed

    Measured: Up to Month 12

  9. Duration of Treatment on Perampanel

    Measured: Up to Month 12

  10. Percentage of Participants Reporting one or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs),Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), TEAEs Leading to Discontinuation, and TEAEs by Severity

    Measured: Up to Month 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy and Partial Onset Seizures, run by Eisai Limited at 36 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 sites in Italy, France, Spain, Russia, Portugal and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Retention Rate at Month 12 (time frame: Month 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Feb 2023.
