About
The XEN1101 Phase 2 clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of increasing doses of XEN1101 administered as adjunctive treatment in adult patients diagnosed with focal epilepsy, followed by an optional open-label extension (OLE).
Full description
The XEN1101 Phase 2 clinical trial is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study with an optional open-label extension (OLE) to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of XEN1101 administered as adjunctive treatment in adult patients aged 18 to 75 years diagnosed with focal epilepsy. Approximately 300 patients will be randomized in a blinded manner to one of three active treatment groups or placebo in a 2:1:1:2 fashion (XEN1101 25 mg : 20 mg : 10 mg : Placebo). After screening, patients will have 8 weeks of baseline to assess frequency of seizures, followed by 8 weeks of treatment and a 6-week post treatment follow-up period. In order to be included in the study, patients must already be treated with a stable dose of 1 to 3 allowable current anti-epileptic drugs for at least one month prior to screening, during baseline, and throughout the double-blind portion (DBP) of the study. During the treatment period, patients will be given XEN1101 or placebo once daily in the evening. An OLE will be available to eligible patients who complete the DBP. All patients will receive a 20 mg daily dose of XEN1101 during this extension period.

History of neurosurgery for seizures <1 year prior to enrollment, or radiosurgery <2 years prior to enrollment
Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, or active suicidal plan/intent in the past 6 months, or a history of suicide attempt in the last 2 years, or more than 1 lifetime suicide attempt
History or presence of any significant medical or surgical condition or uncontrolled medical illness at screening, or history of cancer within the past 2 years, with the exception of appropriately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma
Any clinically significant abnormalities on pre-study physical examination, vital signs, laboratory values or ECG indicating a medical problem that would preclude study participation including but not limited to:

If received in the past, felbamate must have been discontinued 2 months (or no less than 49 days) prior to Screening.
