EP0213 Open-Label, Single-Arm, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Fenfluramine (Hydrochloride) in Infants 1 Year to Less Than 2 Years of Age With Dravet Syndrome Brief summary The primary purpose of this study is evaluate the safety and tolerability of fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) 0.2 to 0.8 mg/kg/day in infants 1 year to less than 2 years of age with Dravet syndrome. Medical Condition Dravet Syndrome Min. Age 1 Years Max. Age 23 Months Who Can Join? All Status Recruiting Inclusion criteria - Participant is ≥1 to <2 years of age as of the day of the first administration of study drug - Participant has a documented diagnosis or likely diagnosis of Dravet syndrome according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria and as agreed by the Epilepsy Study Consortium (ESC) - Participant must be currently receiving ≥1 concomitant anti seizure medication (ASM) at a stable dose for ≥4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit and is expected to remain stable throughout the study. Rescue medications for seizures are not counted towards the total number of ASMs - Participant must have drug resistant epilepsy as defined as a history of failure of adequate trials of 2 tolerated, appropriately chosen and used antiepileptic drug schedules (whether as monotherapies or in combination) to achieve sustained seizure freedom - Participants must have ≥1 countable motor seizures (CMS) during the Baseline Period. The CMS include distinct seizures of generalized tonic-clonic, bilateral clonic, focal motor, bilateral tonic, atonic (drop), bilateral tonic/atonic, or focal to bilateral tonic-clonic type. If the participant fails to have ≥1 qualifying seizures in 28 days, the Baseline Period may be extended by an additional 14 days with Sponsor approval. Participants with an extended Baseline Period must still have ≥1 CMS in the 28 days immediately prior to the day of the first administration of study drug - Body weight is ≥8 kg - Males and females Exclusion criteria - Participant has a known hypersensitivity to fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) or any of the excipients in the study drug - Participant has an exclusionary cardiovascular or cardiopulmonary abnormality based on echocardiogram (ECHO), electrocardiogram (ECG), or physical examination and is not approved for entry by the central cardiac reader - Participant has a diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension - Participant has a clinically significant medical condition, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, or portal hypertension, or has had clinically relevant symptoms or a clinically significant illness currently or in the 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit, other than epilepsy, that in the opinion of the Investigator would negatively impact study participation, collection of study data, or pose a risk to the participant - Participant has current or past history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, such as cardiac valvulopathy, myocardial infarction or stroke, severe ventricular arrhythmias, or clinically significant structural cardiac abnormality, including but not limited to mitral valve prolapse, atrial or ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, and patent foramen ovale with reversal of shunt. (Note: Patent foramen ovale or a bicuspid aortic valve are not considered exclusionary.) - Participant has a current or past history of glaucoma -Participant has moderate to severe hepatic impairment, assessed based on the Child-Pugh classification system - Participant has moderate to severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate <50 mL/min/1.73 m^2 calculated with the updated Bedside Schwartz equation for children - QT interval corrected (QTc) >450 msec - Participant is taking >4 concomitant ASMs - Participant is receiving concomitant treatment with cannabidiol other than Epidiolex/Epidyolex or is being actively treated with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or any marijuana product for any condition - Participant is receiving concomitant therapy with any of the following: centrally-acting anorectic agents; monoamine-oxidase inhibitors; any centrally-acting compound with clinically appreciable amount of serotonin agonist or antagonist properties, including serotonin reuptake inhibition; other centrally-acting noradrenergic agonists, including atomoxetine; or cyproheptadine. Disallowed medications are subject to washout of ≥5 half-lives before the first day of study drug administration - Participant is currently receiving another investigational product(s) or has received another investigational product within 30 days or within <5 times the half-life of that investigational product, whichever is longer, prior to the Screening Visit - Participant has previously been treated with Fintepla (fenfluramine HCl) prior to the Screening Visit Study Medication Description Study Medication: Fintepla Other Descriptive Name: fenfluramine hydrochloride Placebo No Comparator: No Share this study Share Facebook Share Twitter Share LinkedIn Refer to a friend Via email Study Dates May 2024 Actual Start Date of Enrollment January 2027 Planned Study Completion Date General Information Study ID: EP0213 EudraCT Number: 2021-006882-39 CT.gov Number: NCT06118255 Phase: Phase 3 Locations Click here to find out where the clinical study is conducted Interested in our clinical studies?
