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.

Early Check: Expanded Screening in Newborns
Brief Summary: Early Check provides voluntary screening of newborns for a selected panel of conditions. The study has three main objectives: 1) develop and implement an approach to identify affected infants, 2) address the impact on infants and families who screen positive, and 3) evaluate the Early Check program. The Early Check screening will lead to earlier identification of newborns with rare health conditions in addition to providing important data on the implementation of this model program. Early diagnosis may result in health and development benefits for the newborns. Infants who have newborn screening in North Carolina will be eligible to participate, equating to over 120,000 eligible infants a year. Over 95% of participants are expected to screen negative. Newborns who screen positive and their parents are invited to additional research activities and services. Parents can enroll eligible newborns on the Early Check electronic Research Portal. Screening tests are conducted on residual blood from existing newborn screening dried blood spots. Confirmatory testing is provided free-of-charge for infants who screen positive, and carrier testing is provided to mothers of infants with fragile X. Affected newborns have a physical and developmental evaluation. Their parents have genetic counseling and are invited to participate in surveys and interviews. Ongoing evaluation of the program includes additional parent interviews.

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.

Study of the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of ZONISADE in Children 1 Month to 17 Years of Age With Partial-onset Seizures
Brief Summary: The purpose of this research is to determine the optimal dose, safety and tolerability of zonisamide oral suspension in children ages 1 month to 17 years of age who have partial-onset (focal) seizures. The study consists of four periods: a Screening Period (about 14 days), a Titration Period (8 weeks), a Maintenance Period (4 weeks), and a Follow-Up Period (1 week).

Epidyolex® in Lennox Gastaut, Dravet Syndrome and Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: an Observational Study in ITALY
Brief Summary: This is a prospective, observational study on approximately 70-100 Real World participants affected by LGS, DS, or TSC treated with Epidyolex® as prescribed in the summary of product characteristics. The eligible participants are expected to participate in the study for a duration of 52 weeks of treatment.

Epidemiology Study on Neonatal Seizure
Brief Summary: A Multicentre, observational and cohort study to get the incidence of new-onset or newly-diagnosed seizure in neonatal population. EEG will used to record the change of brain electric activity and diagnose. Other data also will be collected since first seizure until confirmed diagnosis.

Prospective Regional Epilepsy Database
Brief Summary: PREDICT is an observational study following adults with an unprovoked seizure or epilepsy in the health care region of western Sweden. The objective is to identify biomarkers and/or genetic predisposition of relevance for diagnosis and/or treatment of epilepsy and study the long-term prognosis and consequences of epilepsy.

Evaluation of the Epilepsy-related Quality of Life, Seizure-related Accidents and Validation of the Mjn-SERAS Solution in the Normalised Patient Environment with Real-World Data
Brief Summary: The study will be prospective, multicentre, postmarketing clinical study, with a controlled and randomized design, to perform the analysis of 130 subjects with a clinical diagnosis of epilepsy, patients whose clinical semiology of their epilepsy is considered to be of interest for the validation in the day-to-day life a medical device (mjn-SERAS), which has already been validated and certified in Europe with CE mark Class IIa. This new validation will take place in the participant's normalised environment, in individuals between 12 and 65 years of age, of both sexes with a diagnosis of drug-resistant epilepsy to determine the impact in quality of life of the mjn-SERAS on the early detection of epileptic seizures and the generation of a pre-seizure alert with a time window of a minimum of 1 minute.

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.
