About this study

This is a Phase 2b, multicenter, open-label extension, one-year, safety, tolerability, and efficacy study in adults who previously completed an applicable double-blind SPN-817 clinical study. This study will include a double-blind Dose Titration/Bridging Period of 8-10 weeks in which SPN-817 will be titrated to the participant's maximum tolerated dose based on response. Following the Dose Titration/Bridging Period, participants will enter an Open Label Extension (OLE) Period of 42-44 weeks. When participants finish the OLE Period, they will initiate a Tapering Period (up to 4 weeks) followed by an End-of-Tapering Period video contact (VC) after the last dose of study drug. The duration of study treatment before starting the 4-week Tapering Period will be one year (52 weeks).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Completed antecedent SPN-817 double-blind study
  • Taking a stable dosage regimen (maintained during the antecedent study) of at least one antiseizure medication (ASM) and no more than 4 ASMs

Exclusion criteria

  • Has current nonepileptic events that could be confused by the participant and/or study staff as epileptic seizures
  • Has any suicidal behavior or suicidal ideation related to Item 4 (active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan) or Item 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent) based on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) assessments in the antecedent study and at Visit 1 or more than one lifetime suicide attempt.

Treatment and study plan

SPN-817

Drug

SPN-817 starting at 0.25 mg bid up to 4.00 mg bid

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events

    Time frame: Week 1-Week 52

    The percent of participants who took at least one dose of SPN-817 and reported at least one adverse event during the 1-year SPN-817 Treatment Period

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percent change (PCH) from baseline in quantifiable focal onset seizure frequency per 28 days over the 1-year SPN-817 Treatment Period

    Time frame: Baseline and Treatment Period (Week 1-52)

    Percent change in 28-day frequency of quantifiable focal seizures during the 1-year Treatment Period relative to baseline

  2. Proportion of participants experiencing ≥50% reduction in focal seizure frequency per 28 days from baseline

    Time frame: Baseline and Treatment Period (Week 1-52)

    Greater than or equal to 50% reduction in 28-day frequency of focal seizures during the 1-year Treatment Period relative to baseline.

  3. Proportion of participants experiencing seizure freedom

    Time frame: Baseline and Treatment Period (Week 1-52)

    100% reduction in 28-day frequency of focal seizures during the Treatment Period relative to baseline

  4. Percentage of seizure-free days over the 1-year SPN-817 Treatment Period

    Time frame: Week 1-Week 52

    The number of seizure-free days reported for each participant divided by the total number of days with seizure data reported, multiplied by 100.
