Epilepsy Paid Clinical Trials in North Carolina

The purpose of the study is to test the efficacy, safety and tolerability of brivaracetam monotherapy in study participants 2 to 25 years of age inclusive with childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) or juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE). Read Less

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

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

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

The primary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of cenobamate (YKP3089) in pediatric subjects with partial-onset (focal) seizures following single and multiple-dosing. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of lacosamide (LCM) versus an Active Comparator chosen based on standard of care (StOC) in severe and nonsevere seizure burden (defined as total minutes of electroencephalographic neonatal seizures (ENS) per hour) in neonates with seizures that are not adequately controlled with previous anti-epileptic drug (AED) treatment.

This study wants to make it easier to find kids with a type of epilepsy called childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) who might have problems with ongoing seizures and thinking. Right now, doctors use tests that can be expensive and take a long time. Eysz is developing a system that looks at how kids move their eyes which might help find CAE more quickly and accurately. This study will compare Eysz with the usual tests to see if it can predict seizures and thinking problems in kids with CAE. The goal is to find these problems earlier and help kids do better in school and life. Read Less

A randomized trial to compare patient-completion success of REDCap and Electronic Health Record (EHR)-based anxiety & depression instrument delivery methods. Study hypothesis is that the screening completion proportion will vary across the 4 modalities tested. Read Less

This trial is intended to study the safety and effectiveness of an new anti-epileptic drug (AED) on Primary Generalized Tonic-Clonic (PGTC) Seizures. Eligible Subjects, adults and adolescents, will continue to take their usual AEDs and receive either cenobamate or placebo. Subjects will have a 50% chance or receiving cenobamate or placebo (sugar pill). Subjects will initially receive 12.5 mg of cenobamate or placebo (study drug) and increase the dose every two weeks until they reach a target dose of 200 mg. Subjects will take study drug at approximately the same time in the morning (once a day) with or without food. If tolerability issues arise, dosing can be changed to evening. Also, once a subject reaches 200 mg, the dose can be decreased one time to 150 mg, if necessary. The treatment period is 22 weeks and there is a 3 week follow up period, which includes a one week decrease in study drug to 100 mg prior to stopping. Adolescents will follow the same every two week regimen and receive cenobamate as an oral suspension based on weight. Subjects who complete may be eligible for an extension study and will not have to complete the follow up period. Subjects will track their seizure types and frequency in a diary throughout the study.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate a 6 month change in quality of life in subjects who receive collaborative care calls compared to those subjects who receive usual neurology care. This is a 2-site trial comparing a 24 week neurology-based collaborative care program to usual neurology care among a total of 60 adults with post-traumatic epilepsy. 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.
