Study summary

The study intends to show that basimglurant (NOE-101) provides effective seizure control in children, adolescents and young adults with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC).

Read the detailed description

The study drug (NOE-101, basimglurant) is a potent inhibitor of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) which controls a wide range of processes in the brain, spinal cord, retina, and peripheral nervous system. In animal studies, the inhibition of this receptor has shown therapeutic potential for the treatment of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). This receptor's inhibition decreases the frequency of seizures. In previous clinical trials, the study drug has shown an advantageous safety profile in children and adolescents.

The objective of this study is to find an optimal dose at which the study drug will lead to a decrease in the duration, frequency and intensity of seizures in children, adolescents and young adults with TSC, while being well tolerated. All patients who positively respond and tolerate the medicine will be offered the possibility to continue in an open label extension.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Ability and willingness to provide informed assent or written consent or consent from their legal representative.
  • Fluency in the language of the study staff
  • Age 5 to 30 years at study entry
  • A documented history of TSC
  • seizure history
  • Currently receiving one or more anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs)
  • Stable medications or interventions for epilepsy
  • Willingness to complete Patient Reported Outcome assessments
  • For female patients of :

    1. Willingness to undergo serum or urinary pregnancy testing at screening and during the trial period.
    2. Willingness to use .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria (summary):

  • Neurologic disease other than TSC
  • Recent anoxic episode
  • Patient weight below 15kg
  • unstable medical condition(s)
  • Pregnancy or lactation
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Relapsed and refractory

Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean percentage in monthly seizure frequency during the maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30).

    Time frame: 30 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of patients considered treatment responders.

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  2. Longest seizure free interval (i.e., seizure free days).

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  3. Change in the severity of symptoms of TSC as measured by Caregiver Global Impression of Change (CGIC) score during maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30) compared to Baseline.

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  4. Change in the Sheehan Disability Scale during maintenance dosing in Period 2 (Weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (Weeks 27-30) compared to baseline.

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  5. Safety of the study drug in children, adolescents and young adults with seizures associated with TSC.

    Measured in terms of incidence, nature, and severity of adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, clinical chemistry, hematology, electrocardiograms, and urinalysis, as well as treatment delays, dose reductions, and dose discontinuations. In addition, suicidal ideation will be assessed using S-STS.

    Time frame: 82 weeks

Other outcomes

  1. Change in seriousness of disease as assessed by Most Impactful Symptoms Scale in Periods 2 (weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (weeks 27 to 30) compared to baseline.

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  2. Frequency of seizures detected by the wearable device evaluated as the change from Baseline compared to study treatment in Period 1 (weeks 13 to 16) and Period 4 (weeks 27 to 30).

    Time frame: 30 weeks

  3. Intensity of seizures detected by the wearable device evaluated as the change from Baseline compared to study treatment Periods 1 and 4.

    Time frame: 30 weeks

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 4, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
