The primary objective of the study is to evaluate vigabatrin pharmacokinetics (PK) in neonates receiving vigabatrin for infantile spasms (IS); and to determine the safety of vigabatrin.
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Allocation
NA
Masking
NONE
Oral vigabatrin as a single 25 mg/kg dose on Days 1 and 5, 25 mg/kg twice a day (50 mg/kg daily dose, orally) on Days 2-4
Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic profile of vigabatrin after oral administrations in infants(>=1 and <6 months of age)
Serial blood for plasma generation will be collected on Days 1 and 5 and vigabatrin concenrations determined to the determine the pharmacokinetic profile of vigabatrin
Time frame: 24 hrs post dose on Day 1 and 12 hrs post dose on Day 5
To determine the safety of vigabatrin following oral dose administrations in infants (>=1 and <6 months of age)
Safety and tolerability parameters such as adverse events, clinical safety laboratory tests and vital signs will be summarised using descriptive statistics
Time frame: Safety collected throughout the 5-day study
