thyroxine and Abdominal Epilepsy

thyroxine has been researched along with Abdominal Epilepsy in 6 studies

Thyroxine: The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
thyroxine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'-, 5- and 5'-positions.

Trial Outcomes

Change in Serum Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) From Baseline to Treatment Period End (Comprised of a 4-week Titration Period and an 8-week Maintenance Period)

Due to premature termination of enrollment prior to achieving the planned sample size (a total of 28 subjects), this primary safety variable was assessed for descriptive purposes only. A negative value indicates an improvement. (NCT01375374)
Timeframe: From Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 84 (Treatment Period End)

Interventionnmol/L (Median)
Lacosamide-12.80

Change in Serum Thyroid Hormone Free Thyroxine Level From Baseline to Treatment Period End (Comprised of a 4-week Titration Period and an 8-week Maintenance Period)

The change in the serum thyroid hormone free thyroxine level from Baseline to the end of the Maintenance Period was summarized descriptively by visit. (NCT01375374)
Timeframe: From Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 84 (Treatment Period End)

Interventionpmol/L (Median)
Lacosamide2.70

Change in Sex Hormone Calculated Free Androgen Index Levels From Baseline to Treatment Period End (Comprised of a 4-week Titration Period and an 8-week Maintenance Period)

The change in sex hormone calculated free androgen index (100 x Testosterone/sex hormone binding globulin) levels from Baseline to the end of Maintenance Period was summarized descriptively by visit. A negative value indicates an improvement. (NCT01375374)
Timeframe: From Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 84 (Treatment Period End)

InterventionFree Androgen Index (Median)
Lacosamide9.493

Change in Total Cholesterol Level From Baseline to Treatment Period End (Comprised of a 4-week Titration Period and an 8-week Maintenance Period)

The change in total cholesterol levels from Baseline to the end of the Maintenance Period was summarized descriptively by visit. A negative value indicates an improvement. (NCT01375374)
Timeframe: From Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 84 (Treatment Period End)

Interventionmmol/L (Median)
Lacosamide-0.540
