This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of intravenous (IV) ganaxolone versus placebo co-administered with IV antiepileptic drug (AED) according to standard of care for the treatment of RSE. Approximately 70 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive ganaxolone IV solution or placebo IV solution along with standard of care (SOC) IV AED.

Inclusion Criteria:
Participant, participant's parent, guardian, or LAR must provide signed informed consent/assent, and once capable (per institution guidelines), there must be documentation of consent/assent by the participant demonstrating they are willing and aware of the investigational nature of the study and related procedures. Where allowed by law, where the participant lacks the capacity to make informed decisions regarding his/her medical treatment options, the treating clinician may follow their deferred consenting practices. The clinician will make the final decision based on the best interests of the participant.
Male or females 18 years of age and older at the time of the first dose of IP.
SE warranting imminent progression of treatment meeting the following criteria:
a) A diagnosis of SE, warranting imminent progression of treatment for seizure control, with or without prominent motor features based on clinical and EEG findings:
i. Diagnosis is established by:
ii. For any type of SE:
Participants must have received a benzodiazepine and at least 1 of the following IV AEDs for treatment of the current episode of SE administered at an adequate dose and for a sufficient duration, in the judgement of the investigator, to demonstrate efficacy. The benzodiazepine and at least 1 of the IV AEDs must have been administered at a dose that would be expected to be effective for the termination of the current episode of SE.
Body mass index (BMI) < 40 or, if BMI is not able to be calculated at screening, participant is assessed by investigator as not morbidly obese.

| Placebo |
| Drug |
Placebo will be administered as IV solution. |
|
| Standard of care | Drug | A non-anesthetic medication not previously used for treatment of SE within the current episode and will be administered at a dose sufficient for the termination of SE according to investigator judgment. |
|
| Up to 72 hours |

| Change from Baseline in Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at the time of hospital discharge | The mRS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms to death where 0 - No symptoms; 1=No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms; 2=Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities; 3=Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted; 4=Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted; 5=Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent; 6=Dead. Higher scores will indicate high degree of disability. | Baseline and Up to Day 31 |
| Change from Baseline in level of responsiveness as assessed by the Full Outline of UnResponsiveness (FOUR) Score scale | The FOUR Score is a 17-point scale (with potential scores ranging from 0 - 16). Decreasing FOUR Score is associated with worsening level of consciousness. The FOUR coma scale includes 4 parameters with a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of "4" for each of them: eye reactions (eye opening and tracking), motor responses (pain response and simple commands), stem reflexes (pupillary, corneal and cough) and respiratory patterns (respiratory rhythm and respiratory attempts in patients on a ventilator). The points are summed up, their sum is estimated. The interpretation of results will be as 15 to 16 score: clear consciousness; Less than 15: Impairment of consciousness; from 4 to 8: Coma and 0-4: Death. Lower the score, the greater the coma gravity. | Baseline and at 24, 36 and 72 hours |
| Change from Baseline in level of sedation/ agitation as assessed by Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (RASS) | The RASS is a medical scale used to measure the agitation or sedation level. It is a 10-point scale that ranges from -5 to +4 with -5=unarousable and +4=combative. Zero means the patient is alert and calm. higher scores indicate more agitation. | Baseline and at 24, 36 and 72 hours |
| Percentage of participants with mRS > 3 at the time of hospital discharge | The mRS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms to death where 0 - No symptoms; 1=No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms. 2=Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities. 3=Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted. 4=Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted. 5=Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent. 6=Dead. Higher scores will indicate high degree of disability. | Up to 122 hours |
| Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) following IP initiation and at hospital discharge | The CGI-I is a 7-point Likert scale that the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legally authorized representative (LAR)(s) and clinician uses to rate the change in overall seizure control, behavior, safety, and tolerability after initiation of the IP relative to Baseline (prior to treatment with the IP). It was rated as: 1- "very much improved", 2- "much improved', 3- "minimally improved", 4- "no change", 5- "minimally worse", 6- "much worse", and 7- "very much worse". Higher scores indicated worse condition. | Baseline and at 24, 36, and 72 hours |
| Number of hours on positive pressure ventilation attributable to the episode of SE or its treatment | Healthcare Utilization Questionnaires include the Hospitalization Questionnaire and the Positive Pressure Ventilation (PPV) and Intubation Questionnaire. The Hospitalization Questionnaire should be collected at hospital discharge or at final study visit/contact. The need for non-invasive or invasive ventilatory support within 24 hours prior to IP initiation and following IP initiation and within 48 hours following IP discontinuation should be collected as close as possible to the event. | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Number of hours on positive pressure ventilation | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Length of stay (days) in intensive care unit (ICU) | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Length of stay (days) in hospital | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Percentage of participants requiring artificial ventilation after initiation of IP | Up to 122 hours |
| Percentage of participants not requiring IV anesthesia for SE treatment within 36 hours of IP initiation | Up to 36 hours |
| Percentage of participants not requiring IV anesthesia for SE treatment within 72 hours of IP initiation | Up to 72 hours |
| Percentage of participants not requiring IV anesthesia for SE treatment through the final study follow-up visit/contact | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Percentage of participants who do not develop super refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) through the final study follow-up visit/contact | Up to 4 Weeks |
| Change from Baseline in Euro Quality of Life (five-level EuroQoL five-dimensional [EQ-5D-5L]) score | The EQ-5D-5L is the EuroQoL 5D-5L, a descriptive system that comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The participant is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension. The digits for the five dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the participant's health state. A positive score means quality of life improvement, a negative score, a worsening of quality of life. Higher scores indicate more problems. | Baseline and Up to 4 Weeks |
| Number of AEDs at discharge | Up to 122 hours |
| Percentage of participants requiring supplemental oxygen after initiation of IP | Up to 4 Weeks |
