About this study

This is a Phase 1b/2 study that consists of 3 parts.

In part 1, participants will receive ABS-1230 for 12 weeks, with a follow-up period of 2 weeks.

In part 2, participants will receive ABS-1230 or placebo for 12 weeks, with a follow-up period of 2 weeks.

All participants who complete part 1 or part 2 will have the option to continue receiving ABS-1230 in an open-label extension study (part 3).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Aged 1 month to <22 years
  • Clinician-confirmed diagnosis of KCNT1-related epilepsy
  • Has an average of at least 4 countable motor seizures per week
  • Is taking no more than 6 antiseizure medications (ASM) and is able to keep stable doses of ASMs for the duration of Part 1 or Part 2

Exclusion criteria

  • Is currently taking phenytoin, carbamazepine, stiripentol, or quinidine
  • Has a medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit the participant's ability to participate in the study or might compromise participant safety or interfere with evaluation of the study drug.

Primary outcomes

  1. Part 1: Safety and tolerability of ABS-1230 (incidence and severity of adverse events)

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (up to 12 weeks)

    Safety and tolerability of ABS-1230 by determining the incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events

  2. Part 2: Efficacy of ABS-1230

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (up to 12 weeks)

    Percentage change from baseline in countable motor seizures (normalized per 28 days) as recorded in the seizure diary

  3. Part 3: Safety and tolerability of ABS-1230 (incidence and severity of adverse events)

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 of Part 3 to End of Study or Early Termination (up to 1 year)

    Safety and tolerability of ABS-1230 by determining the incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events

Secondary outcomes

  1. Maximum Plasma Concentration [Cmax] of ABS-1230

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (up to 12 weeks)

    Pharmacokinetics of ABS-1230

  2. Total Exposure [AUCtau] ABS-1230

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (up to 12 weeks)

    Pharmacokinetics of ABS-1230
