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.

Criteria for Advanced Prosthetic Foot Prescription
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to develop criteria for prosthetic foot prescription for Veterans and Service Members with transtibial limb loss. The objectives are to: 1) Determine the appropriate functional outcome tests and measures to support the prescription of a type of Energy Storing and Returning (ESR) non-articulating, articulating or active plantarflexion prosthetic ankle-foot for a Veteran or Service Member with transtibial limb loss. 2) Correlate patient goals and subjective measures with objective data to determine the appropriate prosthetic ankle-foot category that will facilitate the greatest overall function to the user. 3) Develop criteria for the appropriate prescription of non-articulating ESR, articulating ESR, and active plantar flexion ESR ankle-foot units.
Anatomy-based Fitting in Cochear Implant Users
Brief Summary: In this study, the performance with the CI is investigated over time in three groups of freshly implanted CI users. Both the standard frequency-band distribution and anatomy-based fitting will be used to compare outcomes.
A Study to Determine if BHV-7000 is Effective and Safe in Adults With Refractory Focal Onset Epilepsy
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether BHV-7000 is effective in the treatment of refractory focal epilepsy.
Late-Onset Seizures: Trial of Vascular Risk Investigation and Treatment
Brief Summary: A growing body of evidence suggests patients with late-onset seizures are at an increased risk of stroke, but the potential for reducing cardiovascular morbidity through risk factor screening and management is unknown. The investigators aim to determine whether individuals with new-onset unprovoked seizures after middle age should undergo vascular risk assessment. In a cluster project the investigators assess the effect of vascular risk factor screening in an observational study as well as a cohort study. The project has two interlinked components: a prospective single group study, in which risk factor assessment is performed and subsequent management is followed for one year; and a register-based cohort study examining the long-term effects of the intervention on a system level.
Natural History of Treated Neurocysticercosis and Long-Term Outcomes
Brief Summary: Neurocysticercosis is a brain disease due to the larval stage of the pork tapeworm (Taenia solium). The most common symptoms patient experience from infection inside the substance of the brain (parenchymal disease) are seizures and headaches. When the infection is either inside the fluid pockets inside the brain (ventricular disease) or in the space around the brain (subarachnoid disease) patients can have chronic headaches, relapsing aseptic meningitis, hydrocephalus, stroke, and may require neurosurgical intervention. The purpose of this study is to treat patients with anthelmintic therapy (praziquantel and/or albendazole) and anti-inflammatories in alignment with currently accepted best practices and guidelines, depending on the neurocysticercosis subtype. The purpose of the study is to better understand and characterize clinical, biologic, and management factors during treatment that influence long term outcomes. In order to understand this further we collect patient clinical information, patient survey responses, blood, urine samples, and additional cerebral spinal fluid if already being collected for clinical care....
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).
Dose-Escalation Study of Cenobamate (YKP3089) in Pediatric Subjects With Partial-Onset Seizures
Brief Summary: The primary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of cenobamate (YKP3089) in pediatric subjects with partial-onset (focal) seizures following single and multiple-dosing.
Seizure Prevention in Traumatic Brain Injury With Levetiracetam and Lacosamide
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence of early post-traumatic seizures. The study will also assess the benefit of lacosamide compared to levetiracetam in regards to agitation and behavioral adverse effects in patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury requiring seizure prophylaxis.
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.
