Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Incidence of Adrenal Cortical Adenomas
Minimum of one year after last dose of BGG492 in study BGG492A2207 or BGG492A2212

Incidence of adrenal cortical adenomas as assessed by non-contrast MRI of the abdomen (CT or ultrasound of the abdomen was permitted if MRI was contraindication)

Incidence of Uterine Endometrial Stromal Sarcomas
Minimum of one year after last dose of BGG492 in study BGG492A2207 or BGG492A2212

Incidence of uterine endometrial stromal sarcomas as assessed by sonogram/biopsy (females)

To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BGG492 capsules during the maintenance period in patients suffering from partial onset seizures
38 weeks

By measuring the number and percent of patients having any AE (advent event) by primary system organ class and/or preferred term. By laboratory, vital sign, and ECG data, summary statistics of values and change from baseline

Reduction in migraine pain
2 hours
Outcome Measure: Photoparoxysmal response (PPR) and standardized photoparoxysmal response (SPR) determined by EEG on all treatment days.
Days 1, 2 and 3

Secondary Endpoints

To evaluate the efficacy over time by the change in partial seizure frequency original Baseline Period in the double-blind study CBGG492A2207 to the Open-label Extension Maintenance Phase.
38 weeks
Responder rate: To evaluate the maintenance of efficacy by the change in responder rate and numbers of patients becoming seizure free from the original Baseline Period to the Open-label Extension Maintenance Phase.
38 weeks
Seizure counts: To evaluate the maintenance of efficacy and safety as assessed in percent change of seizure frequency of BGG492 capsules from the original Baseline Period to the Open-label Extension Maintenance Phase.
