Summary

This study tests a liquid form of cannabidiol (CBD) in 100 people aged 12 to 75 who have focal-onset seizures. CBD is already approved for certain rare seizure disorders, and researchers want to see if it can also help reduce focal seizures. Participants will take CBD oil by mouth, and doctors will track changes in seizure frequency and any side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
cannabidiol oral solution (CBD oil)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new treatment option for people with focal-onset seizures who don't respond well to current medications.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase, small trial (100 people) with no placebo group, so results may not be conclusive. CBD can cause side effects like drowsiness or liver issues.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Participants are eligible to be included in the main study only if all of the following criteria apply: 1. Participant has a documented diagnosis of focal epilepsy according to the ILAE Classification of Epilepsy, 2017, characterized by focal seizure types with typical interictal/ictal EEG findings (eg, history of an EEG with focal sharp waves or slowing). Participants with a documented diagnosis of focal epilepsy and a normal EEG are eligible for inclusion. 2. Participant is currently treated with at least 1, but no more than 4, antiseizure medications on a stable regimen. 3. Participant is aged 12 to 75 years old, inclusive, at Screening. Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply: 1. Has a concurrent, confirmed diagnosis of non-epileptic seizures or events that can confound the assessment of the efficacy measures, in the opinion of the investigator. 2. Has clinically significant unstable medical condition(s), other than epilepsy. 3. History of suicidal behavior, current suicidal risk as determined from history, or presence of active suicidal ideation as indicated by a positive response to Item 4 or Item 5 on the C-SSRS or is considered at risk of suicide or self-harm based on the clinical judgement of the investigator following interview with the participant and/or caregiver. 4. Has known or suspected hypersensitivity to cannabinoids or any of the excipients of the study intervention, such as sesame oil. 5. Is currently treated with Epidiolex or received treatment with Epidiolex within 28 days prior to Screening (Visit 1). 6. Is currently using or has used recreational or medicinal cannabis, cannabinoid/CBD based medications, products, or supplements (botanical or synthetic) within 28 days prior to Screening (Visit 1) and/or is unwilling to abstain for the duration of the study. 7. Presence of only nonmotor focal aware seizures or primary generalized epilepsies.
