Study Summary

The study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an investigational drug-ganaxolone - on partial seizure frequency in adults with epilepsy taking a maximum of 3 antiepileptic medications (AEDs).

Primary Outcome

Seizure frequency was based on the number of seizures per 28 days, calculated as the number of seizures over the time interval multiplied by 28 and divided by the number of days in the interval. Baseline 28-day seizure frequency was calculated as the number of seizures in the Baseline period (≤ 56 days) divided by the number of days with available seizure data in the Baseline period and multiplied by 28. Baseline was defined as non-missing value of last assessment before first dose. Primary anal
