Assess if seizure-freedom rates with adjunctive perampanel during the 311 Core Study (NCT02849626) are maintained long-term in pediatric patients with POS (with/without secondarily generalized seizures [SGS]) or PGTCS.

In the US, perampanel is approved for POS (adjunctive/monotherapy) in patients aged ≥4 years and PGTCS (adjunctive) in patients aged ≥12 years. Seizure freedom is maintained long-term with perampanel in patients aged ≥12 years with SGS or PGTCS.
Seizure-freedom rates were assessed in patients who achieved seizure freedom during the Core Study Maintenance Period and then remained seizure free for 6 and/or 12 months (calculated from the start of their seizure-free period). Data were stratified by concomitant enzyme-inducing anti-seizure medications (EIASMs) (with/without) and age (4–<7/7–<12 years).
For POS, 13/17 (76.5%) seizure-free patients during the Core Study remained seizure free for 6 months (with EIASMs, n=3/5 [60.0%]; without EIASMs, n=10/12 [83.3%]; 4–<7 years, n=1/3 [33.3%]; 7–<12 years, n=12/14 [85.7%]), and 6/11 (54.5%) remained seizure free for 12 months (with EIASMs, n=2/5 [40.0%]; without EIASMs, n=4/6 [66.7%]; 4–<7 years, n=0/1; 7–<12 years, n=6/10 [60.0%]). For SGS, 3/8 (37.5%) seizure-free patients remained seizure free for 6 months (with EIASMs, n=0/1; without EIASMs, n=3/7 [42.9%]; 4–<7 years, n=0/3; 7–<12 years, n=3/5 [60.0%]), and 1/5 (20.0%) patients remained seizure free for 12 months (with EIASMs, n=0/1; without EIASMs, n=1/4 [25.0%]; 4–<7 years, n=0/2; 7–<12 years, n=1/3 [33.3%]). For PGTCS, 6/10 (60.0%) seizure-free patients remained seizure free for 6 months (no PGTCS seizure-free patients received EIASMs; 4–<7 years, n=1/2 [50.0%]; 7–<12 years, n=5/8 [62.5%]), and 3/7 (42.9%) patients remained seizure free for 12 months (4–<7 years, n=0/1; 7–<12 years, n=3/6 [50.0%]).

Despite small patient numbers, seizure-freedom rates are maintained during long-term perampanel treatment in pediatric patients, consistent with analyses in adolescents/adults.
