Sixty-two patients with uncontrolled partial seizures participated in a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled add-on-trial. Thirty-two patients received loreclezole and 30 a placebo as add-on therapy. Loreclezole was targeted at a plasma level of 1-2 mg/l. In spite of an antiepileptic therapy, u

β¦ Synopsis
Thirteen drug-resistant epilepsy patients received loreclezole as add-on therapy. The trial lasted 6 months. Loreclezole was dosed to reach a target plasma concentration between 1 and 3 mg/l. The seizure frequency in the total group decreased by 23%. A reduction of 50% or more was observed in four patients. These effects are most likely related to loreclezole, as doses and plasma levels of the associated anti-epileptic drugs remained unchanged during the study. Loreclezole was tolerated well and no changes in haematological or biochemical parameters were observed.

The effect and safety of loreclezole were evaluated during a long-term follow-up trial targeting higher plasma concentrations than those of the preceding controlled trial. The result is better than in the double-blind trial, in which loreclezole doses were administered to reach plasma concentrations
