What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Time frame: From the first Fycompa (Perampanel) administration date up to 24 weeks

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions

    Time frame: From the first Fycompa (Perampanel) administration date up to 24 weeks

  3. Number of Participants With Unexpected Adverse Events

    Time frame: From the first Fycompa (Perampanel) administration date up to 24 weeks

  4. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events

    Time frame: From the first Fycompa (Perampanel) administration date up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Effective Outcome as Measured by Investigator's Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scores

    The CGI-C score is a clinician's rating scale for assessing Global Improvement of Change. The CGI-C rates improvement by 7 categories: very much improved (1), much improved (2), minimally improved (3), no change (4), minimally worse (5), much worse (6), very much worse (7). The CGI-C score ranges from 1 to 7, with lower scores indicating improvement. Effective outcome is defined as CGI-C score of: very much improved (1), much improved (2), or minimally improved (3).

    Time frame: Up to 24 weeks
