A Study to Test the Safety and Tolerability of Brivaracetam in Children and Adolescents With Seizures

Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Long-Term Safety and Tolerability of Brivaracetam Used as Adjunctive Treatment in Pediatric Study Participants With Epilepsy

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of brivaracetam.

EP0156 is designed to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of BRV in pediatric study participants with epilepsy who participated in the neonatal study N01349 [NCG03325439] and/or have participated in the open-label, long-term, follow-up pediatric study N01266 [NCT01364597]. EP0156 will also assess the long-term safety and tolerability of BRV in Japanese pediatric study participants with partial-onset seizures who will be directly enrolled into the study in Japan. Pharmacokinetic data will also be evaluated in Japanese study participants.

Inclusion Criteria:

Inclusion criteria for directly enrolled (DE) study participants in Japan only

• Study participant is ≥ 4 years to < 16 years of age
• Study participant has presence of an electroencephalogram (EEG) reading compatible with the diagnosis of focal epilepsy within the last 10 years
• Study participant has uncontrolled partial-onset seizure (POS) after an adequate course of treatment with at least 1 antiepileptic drug (AED)
• Study participant had at least 1 POS during the 4-week Screening Period

Exclusion Criteria:

Exclusion criteria for all study participants

• Study participant has any clinically significant illness
• Study participant has clinically significant laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or may interfere with the interpretation of study results
• Study participant has a clinically significant ECG abnormality
• Study participant had major surgery within 6 months prior to the ScrV
