Featured Epilepsy Studies

The following are epilepsy studies that apply to particular groups within the Seizure Tracker™ population. Click a title to expand its details.
STARS
The STARS study is searching for people who experience prolonged epileptic seizures (i.e. lasting more than 3 minutes) to join this clinical research study. The STARS Study is testing an inhaler containing an investigational drug that has been designed to potentially stop a prolonged seizure once it has begun.

If you or the person you care for are experiencing prolonged seizures, consider participating in the STARS study.

Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance
The TSC Biosample Repository stores samples of blood, DNA, and tissues from individuals affected by TSC that scientists can use in their research. The samples we collect are linked to clinical data in the TSC Natural History Database. These samples and linked clinical data help researchers conduct experiments to find biomarkers of TSC, test potential drug treatments, and determine why TSC is so different from person to person.

Implemented in 2006, the TSC Natural History Database captures clinical data to document the impact of the disease on a person’s health over his or her lifetime. More than 2,000 people with TSC are enrolled in the project across 18 U.S.-based clinical sites and the TSC Alliance. The TSC Alliance provides funding to participating clinics to perform data entry, monitors the integrity of the database, and makes data available to investigators to answer specific research questions and identify potential participants for clinical trials and studies.
Description: Study design is a Phase IIb prospective multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial. The goal will be to enroll 80 infants with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex who are less than 6 months of age prior to the onset of their first seizure.

Ketamine add-on Therapy for Established Status Epilepticus Treatment Trial (KESETT)
Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if treatment of patients with two doses of ketamine plus levetiracetam versus levetiracetam alone leads to more effective control of status epilepticus.

Prophylactic Anti-Seizure Medication vs No Anti-Seizure Medication for Patients With Primary Motor Cortex Brain Metastases
Brief Summary: This is a randomized trial for patients with brain metastases in the primary motor cortex who have not had seizures to receive either the prophylactic anti-seizure medication levetiracetam (also known by its trade name Keppra) or proceed with standard of care management, which does not currently include prophylactic levetiracetam. Patients who enroll to this trial will be randomized to receive prophylactic levetiracetam or not receive prophylactic levetiracetam.

RENAISSANCE 2: SPN-817 Phase 2, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study in Adults with Focal Onset Seizures
Brief Summary: This is a Phase 2 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of SPN-817 in adults with focal onset seizures.

Clinical Outcomes of Pregnant Individuals With Epilepsy - Prospective Study
Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate the pregnancy, delivery, neonatal, and epilepsy outcomes in individuals with epilepsy undergoing pregnancy at the Maternal and Infant Health Programs at the University Health Network - Sinai Health and followed for epilepsy at the Toronto Western Hospital Epilepsy Clinic. In particular, we are interested in the association between following recommended epilepsy management guidelines for pregnant individuals with epilepsy and those aforementioned outcomes.

Human Thalamus in Propagation of Temporal Lobe Seizures and Memory Formation
Brief Summary: The goal of the study is to examine how two key subregions of the human thalamus (ANT and PLV) are connected with other brain structures (Aim 1), how seizures involve the two thalamic subregions differently and how the map of cortico-thalamic ictal propagation matches the intrinsic connectivity maps identified in the same individuals (Aim 2), and the effect of ANT and PLV stimulations on memory formation (Aim 3).

Early Post-Traumatic Seizures Prevention Trial (E-PTS Trial)
Brief Summary: Rationale/gaps in existing knowledge: The prophylaxis for post-traumatic seizures (PTS) remains controversial due to a lack of class I evidence. Investigators plan to conduct a high-quality, prospective, multicentric, randomized study regarding seizure prophylaxis in traumatic brain injury (TBI) with phenytoin, levetiracetam, and the placebo in three respective treatment groups, along with the effect of drug polymorphism on seizure occurrence. Novelty: Literature is scarce regarding the ideal management of early PTS in traumatic brain injury (TBI), a major public health problem. Further, no study has evaluated the effect of genetic polymorphism on seizure occurrence in traumatic brain injury. This Multicentric study will be the first of its kind, not only in India but also globally. Objectives: To evaluate the seizure incidence \& efficacy of the respective anti-epileptic drug in each treatment arm. Assessment of clinical \& functional outcomes, safety profile, and cost-effectiveness in each group. Effect of genetic polymorphisms on seizure incidence among study participants Methods: A Multicentric prospective randomized placebo-controlled double-blinded clinical trial is planned. After satisfying eligibility criteria and informed consent, TBI patients will be randomly allocated into three arms 'phenytoin arm', 'levetiracetam arm', and 'placebo'. Drug polymorphism will be analyzed in all the patients using quantitative real-time PCR. Expected outcome: This study will provide high-quality evidence in PTS management and will establish the role of prophylactic anti-epileptics in PTS. This study also opens the plethora of undesignated roles of genetic polymorphism in the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam and phenytoin in traumatic brain injury patients.

Real-world Clinical Response to Cenobamate Early add-on in France, Germany and Spain
Brief Summary: Aim of the study is to better characterize the clinical profile of adjunctive cenobamate by collecting data from the current standard clinical practice in France, Germany, and Spain, to describe the real-world clinical response among adult patients affected by focal epilepsy not adequately controlled despite a history of 2 or 3 ASMs before starting treatment with cenobamate (including previous and concomitant ASMs).

Seizure Prediction Using Wearable EEG
Brief Summary: This study is a non-interventional clinical trial analyzing EEG recordings from people with epilepsy. Participants wear a comfortable EEG headband at home for several weeks. The goal is to study changes in brain activity that occur before seizures (called "pre-ictal patterns") and to test whether a software algorithm can predict seizures in real-time based on these patterns. No treatments or medications are being tested. The study will help evaluate whether seizure prediction is possible using wearable EEG devices and can support the development of future tools that give patients early warnings before seizures occur.

Why Participate in Clinical Trials?
  • The treatments for seizures will not improve without patients participating in research.
  • Clinical trials help us understand if a promising new medication or device is safe.
  • Participating in a research study may give you access to a therapy not available to others with epilepsy.
  • Clinical trials not only research medication, they can also focus on disease prevention and quality of life.
