A 12-Month Study To Evaluate The Safety And Tolerability Of Pregabalin As Add-On Therapy In Pediatric Subjects 1 Month To 16 Years Of Age With Partial Onset Seizures And Pediatric And Adult Subjects 5 To 65 Years Of Age With Primary Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 28 days after last dose of study drug (up to 13 months) that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. AEs included both serious and non-serious AEs. Treatment-related AE was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to study drug in a participant who received study drug. Relatedness to study drug was assessed by the investigator.

Physical examination assessed: general appearance, dermatological, head and eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and throat, pulmonary, cardiovascular, abdominal, genitourinary (optional), lymphatic, musculoskeletal/extremities. Neurological examination assessed: level of consciousness, mental status, cranial nerve assessment, muscle strength and tone, reflexes, pin prick and vibratory sensation, coordination and gait. Investigator judged clinically significant change from baseline in physical and neurological examination findings.

Pre-defined criteria of vital signs abnormalities: maximum (max.) increase or decrease from baseline in sitting/supine systolic blood pressure (SBP) >=30 millimeter of mercury (mmHg); maximum increase or decrease from baseline in sitting/supine diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >=20 mmHg.

Tanner stage defines physical measurements of development based on external primary and secondary sex characteristics. Participants were evaluated for pubic hair distribution, breast development (only females) and genital development (only males), with values ranging from stage 1 (pre-pubertal characteristics) to stage 5 (adult or mature characteristics).

In this outcome measure number of participants with increase and decrease of >=7% in body weight, from baseline up to 12 months are reported.

Categories for which data is reported are: 1) maximum (max) PR interval increase from baseline (IFB) (millisecond [msec]) percent change (PctChg) >=25/50%; 2) maximum QRS complex increase from baseline (msec) PctChg>=50%; 3) maximum QTcB interval (Bazett's correction) increase from baseline (msec): change >=30 to <60; change >=60; 4) maximum QTcF interval (Fridericia's correction) increase from baseline (msec): change >=30 to <60; change >=60. 'PctChg>=25/50%': >= 25% increase from baseline when baseline ECG parameter is > 200 msec, and is >= 50% increase from baseline when baseline ECG parameter is non-missing and <=200 msec.

28-days seizure rate was defined as number of seizures per 28-day period. 28-days seizure rate have been reported separately for partial onset seizure and primary generalized tonic clonic seizure. Partial onset seizure: a seizure that starts in one area of the brain. This kind of seizure is brief, lasting seconds to less than 2 minutes. Primary generalized tonic clonic seizure: a seizure that starts in one area of the brain, then spreads to both sides of the brain as a tonic-clonic seizure and usually last 1 to 3 minutes.

Number of participants with C-CASA code 4 are reported. C-SSRS responses mapping to C-CASA suicidal ideation code 4 are as follows: "Yes" on "wish to be dead", "non-specific active suicidal thoughts", "active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intent to act", "active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan", "active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan".

Number of participants with C-CASA code 1 or 2 or 3 are reported. C-SSRS responses mapping to C-CASA suicidal behavior codes 1, 2, or 3 are as follows: (1) completed suicide; (2) suicide attempt (response of "Yes" on "actual attempt"); (3) preparatory acts toward imminent suicidal behavior ("Yes" on "aborted attempt", "interrupted attempt", "preparatory acts or behavior").

CogState brief battery consisted of 2 tasks- detection and pediatric identification task using a laptop computer with external response buttons. Prior tasks, participants were briefed rules, given an interactive demonstration and a sufficient number of practice trials. For each task, participant responded "yes" using a response button with dominant hand. Participants had to "respond as fast and as accurately as possible." Detection task: measured simple reaction time to assess psychomotor function. Participant pressed a "YES" response key as soon as they detected an event (ie, a card turning face up presented in the center of the computer screen). A participant's RCI was calculated by dividing the change from individual baseline score by ([square root 2] times WSD), where WSD is within-subject standard deviation from Cogstate detection task normative data. Improvement in cognition when RCI <=-1.65, decline in cognition when RCI =>1.65.

Prior tasks, participants were briefed rules, given an interactive demonstration and a sufficient number of practice trials. For each task, participant responded "yes" using a response button with dominant hand. Participants had to "respond as fast and as accurately as possible." Pediatric identification task: measured choice reaction time to assess visual attention. An event (a card turning face up) occurred in center of computer screen and participant decided if event met a predefined and unchanging criterion (is the color of the card black?); answered "YES" if criterion was met. A participant's RCI was calculated by dividing the change from individual baseline score by ([square root 2] times WSD),WSD=within-subject standard deviation from Cogstate task normative data. Improvement in cognition: RCI <=-1.65, decline in cognition: RCI =>1.65.
