About
CB03-154 is an investigational drug developed by Shanghai Zhimeng Biopharma Inc. for the treatment of Focal Epilepsy.
Full description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of CB03-154 on focal seizure frequency by comparing with placebo, see how safe the study drug is and assess how well it is tolerated after dosing in adults with focal epilepsy taking 1 to 3 AEDs in the double-blind trial. The study will also test the 50% response rates of the study drug and see how it is taken up and eliminated by the body. An additional part of the study is to look how will the study drug influence the trends of frequency and seizure severity in the double-blind trial.

Inclusion criteria
Ability of the subjects or his/her authorized representative be fully informed of the nature and risks of the study and give informed consent in writing prior to entering the study.
Male and female aged 18 to 70 years, inclusive.

Diagnosis (≥2 years) of focal epilepsy according to the International League Against Epilepsy [ILAE] Classification of Epilepsy (2017).
Prior neuroimaging within the last 5 years and documentation are available to rule out progressive structural central nervous system abnormalities at the time of the diagnosis of epilepsy.
Treatment with a stable dose of 1 to 3 allowable current AEDs for at least one month prior to screening, during baseline, and throughout the duration of the DBP.
Prior to screening and during baseline period, subjects must have at least 6 focal seizures without status epilepticus, with or without focal to bilateral tonic-clonic.
If a female, must be:
If a female of child-bearing potential, must have a negative pregnancy test result at Screening and Check-in.
If a male, if heterosexually sexually active with a female partner of child-bearing potential and has not had a vasectomy, must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception and deemed appropriate by the Investigator and must not donate sperm during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study drug.
Able to keep accurate seizure diaries.
Exclusion criteria
Subject has had documented previous EEGs indicating other patterns of epilepsy besides the focal epilepsy prior to dosing the study drug.
Subject has seizures secondary to drugs or alcohol use, ongoing infection, metabolic diseases or progressive central nervous system diseases or lesions at the investigator's assessments.
Subject has the history of pseudo seizures, conversion disorders, or other non-epileptic seizure conditions, or other non-epileptic ictal events that could be confused with seizures at the investigator's discretion and/or EEG evidence.
Subject has the presence or previous history of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, some other related syndrome or evidence of both focal and generalized epilepsy at investigator's decisions.
Subject has the history of status epilepticus within 6 months prior to screening.
Subject has only uncountably repetitive seizures occurring within 6 months prior to screening.
Subject has the history of neurosurgery for seizures <1 year prior to enrolment, or radiosurgery <2 years prior to enrolment. Subjects has the implantment and activation of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), or other neurostimulation for epilepsy treatment <1 year prior to enrolment, or with stimulation parameters that have been stable for <3 months prior to enrolment, or with anticipated left battery lifetime shorter than trial duration.
Subject has any of the following findings will be excluded:
Subject has any clinically significant abnormalities on physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests or ECG prior to first dose of the study drug which could jeopardize or would compromise the subject's safety or ability to participate in this study as deemed by the Investigator and the Medical monitor.
Subject has the history or presence of significant medical or surgical condition including but not limited to cardiac, hepatic, renal, respiratory, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, hematologic, psychiatric disease, or history of cancer within the past 2 years, with the exception of appropriately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, or any condition which could jeopardize or would compromise the subject's safety or ability to participate in this study in the opinion of the investigator and/or the medical monitor at enrolment.
Subject with active pathogen infections or carrier including but not limited to testing positive at Screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody or syphilis.
Subject has schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, or active suicidal plan/intent in the past 6 months as indicated by a positive response ('Yes') to either Question 4 or Question 5 of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening, or a history of suicide attempt (including an active attempt, interrupted attempt, or aborted attempt) within 2 years prior to enrolment, or more than 1 lifetime suicide attempt.
Subject ever used vigabatrin without no vigabatrin-related visual field abnormalities confirmed by examination within the past 6 months at screening (concomitant use of vigabatrin is not allowed).
If felbamate will be a concomitant AED during study, the subject must be on felbamate for at least 2 years, and with a stable dose for at least 2 months prior to screening and without planned changes of the dose during the study. Subject must not have a history of white blood cell (WBC) count below 3000/μL (3.00 *109/L), platelets below 75,000/mm3 (75*109/L), liver function tests above 1.5 times the ULN, or other indication of hepatic or bone marrow dysfunction while receiving felbamate. If felbamate was ever used before, it must have been discontinued for at least 2 months prior to screening.
Subject has taken other (non-AED) prescription, nonprescription, dietary (e.g., grapefruit or passion fruit), or herbal products that are potent inducers or strong or moderately inhibitors of the CYP3A4 pathway for 2 weeks prior to the baseline.
Subject has received an investigational medicinal product within 3 months or within 10 half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) or IMP of monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, growth factors, soluble receptors, other recombinant products, or fusion proteins within 6 months prior to the first dose of study drug.
Subject is known allergic or hypersensitive to any of excipients of CB03-154 tablet formulation.
Subject has had multiple drug allergies or a severe drug reaction to an AED(s), including dermatological, hematological, or organ toxicity reactions.
