Study Summary

The primary efficacy objective of the study is to determine if adjunctive therapy of natalizumab 300 mg intravenous (IV) every 4 weeks reduces the frequency of seizures in adult participants with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. The secondary efficacy objective is to assess the effects of natalizumab versus placebo in drug-resistant focal epilepsy on additional measures of seizure frequency.

Primary Outcome

Seizures included were focal aware seizures with motor signs, focal impaired awareness seizures and focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizure. Focal aware seizures without motor signs were not included. Seizure clusters (where individual seizures cannot be distinguished) were counted as 1 seizure per cluster on each day that they are present. Study baseline seizure frequency (number of seizures per 28 days) was calculated based on participant's seizure diary data during prospective baseline phase.

Interventions

  • OTHER Placebo
  • DRUG Natalizumab
