A Trial of the Efficacy and Safety of CVL-865 as Adjunctive Therapy in the Treatment of Focal Onset Seizures
United States154 participantsStarted 2020-01-27
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if CVL-865, when taken regularly with other anti-seizure medicines, works to prevent seizures in adults with drug-resistant focal onset seizures. It will also learn about the safety of CVL-865.
The main question it aims to answer is whether CVL-865, when taken regularly with other anti-seizure medicines, lowers the number of seizures in those with a diagnosis of epilepsy with drug-resistant focal onset seizures.
This study has an 8-week Screening/Baseline Period, a 13-week Treatment Period (including a 2-week Titration Phase, an 8-week Maintenance Phase, and a 3-week Taper Phase), and a 4-week Safety Follow-Up Period.
Participants will take CVL-865 or a placebo twice a day during the 10-13 week Treatment Period, visit the clinic every few weeks for checkups, tests, and surveys, and fill out an e-Diary.

* Participants must have history of an average of 4 or more spontaneous and observable focal onset, as defined in the ILAE Classification of Seizures, focal aware (except participants with only focal aware seizures without a motor component), focal impaired awareness, and focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures per 28-day period for at least 3 months (84 days) prior to signing the ICF
* Participants who have tried and failed at least 2 appropriate Anti- epileptic drugs (AEDs) in the past and also currently taking 1 to 3 permitted AEDs at a stable dose for 4 Weeks prior to the Screening Visit
* Participants with a minimum of 8 focal onset, focal aware, focal impaired awareness, or focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures during the 8 week baseline period with no 21-day period free of any of these seizure types
* Participants must have had magnetic resonance imaging or contrast enhance computed tomography scan of the brain that demonstrated no progressive structural central nervous system abnormality at the time of the diagnosis of epilepsy
