Trial Outcomes

Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Score at the End of the Maintenance Phase

Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how much the participant's illness has improved or worsened relative to a baseline state at the beginning of the treatment. Scores on the scale are rated as: 1, very much improved; 2, much improved; 3, minimally improved; 4, no change; 5, minimally worse; 6, much worse; or 7, very much worse. (NCT00235755)
Timeframe: Week 16/end of treatment phase

Patient Global Impression (PGI) Score at the End of the Maintenance Phase

PGI is a participant-rated scale of improvement that was administered at the end of the Maintenance Phase in order to assess the participant's impression of his or her own improvement. PGI assessments were scored using a 7-point scale: 1, very much improved; 2, much improved; 3, minimally improved; 4, no change; 5, minimally worse; 6, much worse; or 7, very much worse. (NCT00235755)

Percent Change From Baseline (BL) in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency During the Maintenance Phase

28-day total partial seizure frequency in the BL period = (No. of total partial seizures reported in the BL period divided by the No. of days of available total partial seizure data in the BL period) x 28 days. 28-day total partial seizure frequency in the Maintenance Phase = (No. of total partial seizures reported in the Maintenance Phase divided by the No. of days of available total partial seizure data in the same phase) x 28 days. Percent change = (value in the Maintenance Phase minus value at BL divided by the BL value) x 100%. Negative values indicate a reduction in seizure frequency. (NCT00235755)
Timeframe: Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 5 through Week 16

Percent Change in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure (PS) Frequency From Baseline (BL) to the End of the Double-blind (DB) Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases)

28-day total PS (PSs [also called focal seizures] are seizures limited to a specific area of the brain) frequency in the BL period = (Number [No.] of total PSs reported in the BL period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the BL period) x 28 days. 28-day total PS frequency in the DB period = (No. of total PSs reported in the DB period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the DB period) x 28 days. Percent change = ([value in the DB period minus value at BL] divided by the BL value) x 100%. Negative valu es indicate a reduction in seizure frequency. (NCT00235755)
Timeframe: Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), DB Phase (Week 1 through Week 16)

Percentage of Seizure-free Days During the DB Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases)

A seizure-free day was a day without any seizures. For a participant to be seizure free during the DB Phase, the participant had to be seizure free both Week 7 to Week 18 and Week 1 to Week 6. A participant could be seizure free Week 7 to Week 18 (during the Maintenance Phase), but not seizure free Week 1 to Week 6. Hence, there are fewer participants being reported as seizure free from Week 1 to Week 18 than from Week 7 to Week 18. The percentage of seizure-free days was calculated as the total number of days without seizures in the DB period divided by the number of days in DB period x 100%. (NCT00235755)
Timeframe: Week 1 through Week 16

Interventionpercentage of days (Median)

Percentage of Seizure-free Days During the Maintenance Phase

A seizure-free day was a day without any seizures. The percentage of seizure-free days was calculated as the total number of days without seizures in the Maintenance Phase divided by the number of days in the Maintenance Phase x 100%. (NCT00235755)
Timeframe: Week 5 through Week 16

Change From Baseline in Post-void Residual Urine Volume at Weeks 8 and 16 of the Maintenance Phase

Post-void residual (PVR) urine refers to the amount of urine remaining in the bladder after normal urination. To investigate the possible effects of retigabine on bladder function, all participants underwent post-void residual bladder ultrasound at Baseline and during the Maintenance Phase. The PVR bladder ultrasound was performed by a urologist, a qualified ultrasound technician, or a qualified study nurse who was certified to do PVR bladder ultrasound. Change from Baseline in PVR residual volume was calculated as the values at Week 10 and Week 16 minus the value at Baseline. (NCT00235755)

Number of Participants Who Were Seizure-free During the DB Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases)

Participants were considered to be seizure-free if they had not reported any seizures during the DB treatment period (Weeks 1-18). For a participant to be seizure free during the DB Phase, the participant had to be seizure free both Week 7 to Week 18 and Week 1 to Week 6. A participant could be seizure free Week 7 to Week 18 (during the Maintenance Phase), but not seizure free Week 1 to Week 6. Hence, there are fewer participants being reported as seizure free from Week 1 to Week 18 than from Week 7 to Week 18. (NCT00235755)

Quality of Life Assessed by Quality of Life in Epilepsy-Problems Questionnaire (QOLIE-31-P) at BL (Week 0) and Weeks 4, 8, and 16

The QOLIE-31-P is a 31-item questionnaire evaluating a participant's QOL perception in 7 domains: seizure worry, emotional well being, energy/fatigue, cognitive functioning, medication effects, social functioning, overall QOL. Precoded numeric values for some domains are such that a higher number reflects a more favorable health state; others are such that a higher number reflects a less favorable state. Precoded values are first converted to 0-100 point scores; higher converted scores always reflect better QOL. The overall score is derived by weighting and then summing the 7 domain scores.
