There are currently 78 active clinical trials seeking participants for Epilepsy research studies. The states with the highest number of trials for Autism participants are Florida, California, Texas and New York.
Cortical Excitability in Post-traumatic Epilepsy
Recruiting
To test whether measures of cortical excitability derived from motor cortex transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in patients with traumatic brain injury reflect heightened excitability relative to healthy controls and whether such measures can be used to distinguish patients with post-traumatic epilepsy from patients with head trauma but no epilepsy

Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors: A Potential Novel Treatment for Epilepsy
Recruiting
About 30% of persons with epilepsy have seizures that do not respond to drugs. The ketogenic diet is an effective treatment option for them, but this high fat diet is strict and difficult to maintain. The properties of gliflozins, which often are used to treat type 2 diabetes, make them a potential replacement for the ketogenic diet. This pilot study will determine whether gliflozins induce ketosis and could be used to treat adults with epilepsy safely.

Incorporating Multidimensional Psychosocial Interventions Improves the Well-being of Individuals With Epilepsy
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to incorporate multidimensional self-management programs into the routine care of epilepsy patients. Consenting patients will enroll in one of four interventions that help improve medication adherence, increase seizure awareness and documentation, improve memory and deal with stress and depression.

Effects of Green Light Exposure on Epileptic Spikes in Patients With Refractory Epilepsy
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary data in advance of a larger clinical trial aimed to test whether a single session of green light exposure can lead to a clinically significant reduction in epileptic spikes in patients with medically-refractory epilepsy. As this is a potentially fragile patient population, the study will test safety and tolerability as well as efficacy.
