Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to characterize the multiple-dose safety and tolerability profile of TAK-935 in adult participants with developmental and/or epileptic encephalopathies.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-935. TAK-935 is being tested to treat people who have developmental and/or epileptic encephalopathies. This study will look at safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of people who take TAK-935. Study drug will be administered in a double-blind manner in Part 1 and in an open-label manner in Part 2.

The study will enroll approximately 20 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the two treatment groups in Part 1-which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • TAK-935

  • Placebo (dummy inactive pill) - this is a tablet that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient

Participants will receive placebo or 100 milligram (mg) TAK-935 tablets, orally or through stable G-tube/PEG tube, BID, in Part 1 (Day 1) and dose will be increased to 200 mg (Day 11) BID and to 300 mg (Day 21) BID in dose titration period. All participants who complete the Double-Blind Treatment Period in Part 1 will have the option to continue directly into the Open-Label Treatment Period in Part 2 where they will receive TAK-935 as two 100 mg tablets (total dose is 200 mg TAK-935) orally or through G-tube/PEG tube, BID and dose will be increased to three 100 mg tablets (total dose is 300 mg TAK-935), orally, BID (Day 41). This dose level will be maintained until the final visit (Day 85) for the dose de-escalation phase.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in North America. The overall time to participate in this study is 121 days excluding screening period of 30-41 days. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, and a follow-up phone call will be conducted on Day 91 and at the end of the 30-day follow-up period (Day 121), participants will return to the clinic for a follow-up assessment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE), as Reported by the Participants or Participant's Caregivers or Observed by the Investigator, After TAK-935 Treatment [From first dose up to 30 days post last dose (approximately up to 120 days)]

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug

  5. For participants with G-tube/PEG tube, G-tubes/PEG tubes should have been placed and been functioning for at least 3 months prior to screening. Naso-gastric tubes are not allowed.

Exclusion Criteria:
  1. Has received TAK-935 in a previous clinical study or as a therapeutic agent.

  2. Was admitted to a medical facility for treatment of status epilepticus requiring mechanical respiration within 3 months before Screening.

  3. Had a vagal nerve stimulator implanted within 6 months before Screening and settings have been changed within 1 month of the Screening Visit and/or anticipated to change during the study.

  4. Is on ketogenic diet that has been started within 6 months of the Screening Visit, has been changed within 1 month of the Screening Visit, or is anticipated to change during the study.

  6. Has a history of suicidal behavior or any suicidal ideation of type 4 or 5 on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening. If the participant is unable to comply with the C-SSRS due to developmental status, a parent proxy may be used for the completion of the C-SSRS. The Investigator may also use clinical judgment, which must then be documented in the source document.

  7. Positive for human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infections. (Note that participants who have been vaccinated against hepatitis B [hepatitis B surface antibody (Ab)-positive] who are negative for other markers of prior hepatitis B infection [example, negative for hepatitis B core Ab] are eligible. Also note that participants who are positive for hepatitis C Ab are eligible as long as they have a negative hepatitis C viral load by quantitative polymerase chain reaction [qPCR]).
