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.

This Study Will Assess the Etiology, Potential Risk Factors, and Seizure Types in Patients Over 50 With Epileptic Seizure Disorder, Using Laboratory Tests, EEG, and Neuroimaging Findings.
Brief Summary: This study underscores the importance of studying the etiology, clinical characteristics, and types of epilepsy in the elderly to improve diagnosis and management in our community.
Optimizing Therapy in Epilepsy Using Seizure Forecasts Via EEG and Wearables
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using seizure forecasts based on subscalp EEG.
Glioblastoma Remote Monitoring and Care - Research Protocol
Brief Summary: The purpose of this research is to learn more about how what the Apple watch measures, in terms of walking data, heart rate, breathing rate, and sleep habits, relates to how participants feel. During the course of the treatment, the symptoms participants experience change, and whether the Apple watch can detect these changes. Ultimately, this knowledge is being used to design proactive tools and signatures that can predict complications or symptom changes before they happen.
Cenobamate Open-Label Extension Study for YKP3089C025
Brief Summary: 52 Week Open-Label Safety Study of Cenobamate for Subjects who Complete YKP3089C025 (core study)
LEvetiracetam to Prevent Seizures in Symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease in Adults With Down Syndrome
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether levetiracetam can prevent epileptic seizures in patients with Alzheimer's disease associated with Down syndrome. It will also analyze whether it can delay the neurodegeneration associated with this disease. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will receive the active drug (levetiracetam), and the other will receive a placebo. Both groups will receive the treatment for 96 weeks. Each patient will participate for a total of 2 years and 5 months.
Application of tDCS Stimulation in Controlling Refractory Status Epilepticus
Brief Summary: The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of targeting tDCS stimulation for treatment of Refractory status epilepticus
Roll-over Study to Collect and Assess Long-term Safety of Everolimus in Patients With TSC and Refractory Seizures Who Have Completed the EXIST-3 Study [CRAD001M2304] and Who Are Benefitting From Continued Treatment
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety in patients with TSC and refractory seizures who are currently receiving everolimus treatment in the Novartis-sponsored EXIST-3 study and who are determined to be benefiting from continued treatment as judged by the investigator at the completion of EXIST-3
Mapping of Human Cognition
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare organization of normal brain function as detected using Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in normal subjects as opposed to patients with epilepsy or brain tumors, to ascribe precise anatomic labels (including Brodmann Areas) and functional significance to each region involved in cognitive processes as detected by cortical stimulation mapping (CSM) in patients with implanted subdural electrodes (SDE) or depth (sEEG) electrodes, to describe the locations of these regions in Talairach space, for a population of patients without overt structural abnormalities in these regions, to generate a spatial probability map of locations of cortical regions "essential" for these processes, to compare the loci of "crucial" language, visual, motor and cognitive sites as determined by CSM with the loci determined by a battery of tasks using fMRI for each individual and to use these data in patients undergoing intracranial electro-corticographyto determine the loci of essential, involved and uninvolved brain areas, and use sophisticated mathematical analyses of these intracranial recordings to study information flow between these areas.
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.
