An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 30 days after last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.
Time frame: Baseline up to Year 5 and follow-up (30 days after last dose)
Mean Number of Seizures
Seizures were episodes of disturbed brain activity that cause changes in attention or behavior. The different types of seizures observed were complex partial, secondarily generalized tonic-clonic, simple partial and others. Mean number of seizures were calculated between each study visit.
Time frame: Month 6 thereafter every 6 months up to Month 54 or End of Study (EOS) and follow-up (30 days after last dose)
