Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 Oct 2025

Reason given: Study was not initiated.

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This project is aiming to better understand the use of perampanel as an appropriate standard-of-care therapy for treatment refractory status epilepticus (RSE), to identify determinants of outcomes, and establish safety. The study will recruit 25 patients at WSU. The study will last for about 96 weeks and will involve a screening visit and two in clinic visits at 3 and 6 months. If the subjects give written informed consent and meet all eligibility criteria they will be clinically evaluated and will be given the study drug. This study will involve recording of patients medical history, drug history and epilepsy history. A physical exam and a and neurological exam will also be performed to study the heath status of the participant. Results and patient information will be stored in a database for analysis to find commonality among key factors that have been seen in past research.
