Epilepsy Paid Clinical Trials in Michigan

The purpose of this study is to determine whether BHV-7000 is effective in the treatment of idiopathic generalized epilepsy with generalized tonic-clonic seizures and includes an additional open-label extension (OLE) phase. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine whether BHV-7000 is effective in the treatment of refractory focal epilepsy. Read Less

Primary objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of cenobamate in pediatric subjects 2-17 years of age with partial-onset (focal) seizures Read Less

The purpose of this post-approval study is to further evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of Medtronic DBS therapy for epilepsy on seizure reduction in newly implanted participants through 3 years of follow-up. Read Less

This is a study of AMT-260 in Adults with Unilateral Refractory Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE). It is designed to investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of AMT-260 in Adults with MTLE Administered via Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided Convection-enhanced Delivery (CED).

To demonstrate that the RNS System is safe and effective as an adjunctive therapy in individuals age 12 through 17 years with medically refractory partial onset epilepsy. Read Less

The purpose of this project is to conduct a trial to assess whether patients that receive a tablet-based waiting room priority communication tool (the "Epilepsy Visit Planner") have improved outcomes compared to patients that do not receive the tool. The project's hypotheses are: * Patients that receive the Epilepsy Visit Planner will have improved patient-provider communication compared to the non-planner group. * Patients that receive the Epilepsy Visit Planner will have improved quality of life scores. * The Epilepsy Visit Planner will score highly on process measures of feasibility and acceptability, demonstrating suitability for future larger scale study. Additionally, there is a related survey project that is not part of the clinical trial and will not be included in this registration information. Read Less

This project will test the accuracy of a novel diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWMRI) approach using a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) to predict an optimal resection margin for pediatric epilepsy surgery objectively. Its primary goal is to minimize surgical risk probability (i.e., functional deficit) and maximize surgical benefit probability (i.e., seizure freedom) by precisely localizing eloquent white matter pathways in children and adolescents with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. This new imaging approach, which will acquire a DWMRI scan before pediatric epilepsy surgery in about 10 minutes without contrast administration (and also without sedation even in young children), can be readily applied to improve preoperative benefit-risk evaluation for pediatric epilepsy surgery in the future. The investigators will also study how the advanced DWMRI-DCNN connectome approach can detect complex signs of brain neuronal reorganization that help improve neurological and cognitive outcomes following pediatric epilepsy surgery. This new imaging approach could benefit targeted interventions in the future to minimize neurocognitive deficits in affected children. All enrolled subjects will undergo advanced brain MRI and neurocognitive evaluation to achieve these goals. The findings of this project will not guide any clinical decision-making or clinical intervention until the studied approach is thoroughly validated. Read Less

This clinical trial is designed to test whether a single stereotactic intracerebral administration of inhibitory nerve cells into subjects with drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy is safe (frequency of adverse events) and effective (seizure frequency). Read Less

We aim to determine the clinical utility of 'dynamic tractography': a novel method for visualizing electrical neural transfers that incorporates the underlying white matter tracts and supporting linguistic processing. We will also determine how well objective electrophysiology biomarkers will improve the prediction of language outcomes following epilepsy surgery. This project will ultimately optimize understanding of how the human brain develops its language network dynamics. Read Less

The NSR-GENE study is a longitudinal cohort study of approximately 300 parent-child trios from the Neonatal Seizure Registry and participating site outpatient clinics that aims to evaluate whether and how genes alter the risk of post-neonatal epilepsy among children with acute provoked neonatal seizures. The researchers aim to develop prediction rules to stratify neonates into low, medium, and high risk for post-neonatal epilepsy based on clinical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and genetic risk factors.
