clobazam and Developmental Disabilities

clobazam has been researched along with Developmental Disabilities in 3 studies

Clobazam: A benzodiazepine derivative that is a long-acting GABA-A RECEPTOR agonist. It is used as an antiepileptic in the treatment of SEIZURES, including seizures associated with LENNOX-GASTAUT SYNDROME. It is also used as an anxiolytic, for the short-term treatment of acute ANXIETY.
clobazam : 7-Chloro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen at position 1 is substituted by a methyl group, whilst that attached to the other nitrogen is substituted by a phenyl group. It is used for the short-term management of acute anxiety and as an adjunct in the treatment of epilepsy in association with other antiepileptics.

Developmental Disabilities: Disorders in which there is a delay in development based on that expected for a given age level or stage of development. These impairments or disabilities originate before age 18, may be expected to continue indefinitely, and constitute a substantial impairment. Biological and nonbiological factors are involved in these disorders. (From American Psychiatric Glossary, 6th ed)

Trial Outcomes

A Comparison of the High Dose Group to Low Dose Group of the Percent Reduction in Number of Drop Seizures.

Number of drop seizures (average per week) was obtained from seizure diaries. The average drop in seizures per week for patients who did not complete the maintenance period was calculated based on the time from the beginning of the maintenance period to date of withdrawal. (NCT00162981)
Timeframe: 4-week baseline period and the 4-week maintenance period

InterventionPercent Reduction (Median)
Clobazam Low Dose29
Clobazam High Dose93

Percent Reduction in Number of Drop Seizures.

Number of drop seizures (average per week) was obtained from seizure diaries. The average drop in seizures per week for patients who did not complete the maintenance period was calculated based on the time from the beginning of the maintenance period to date of withdrawal. (NCT00162981)
Timeframe: 4-week baseline period and 4-week maintenance period

Parent/Caregiver Global Evaluations of the Patient's Overall Change in Symptoms.

"The parent/caregiver was asked to rate the patient's overall change in symptoms and overall change in seizure activity and Quality of Life since the beginning of clobazam treatment by checking very much improved, much improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse, or very much worse."
