Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: ZX008

ZX008 is supplied as an oral solution in a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL. Subjects will be titrated to an effective dose beginning with 0.2 mg/kg/day (maximum: 30 mg/day).

Drug: ZX008 (Fenfluramine Hydrochloride)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Long-term safety and tolerability as measured by treatment emergent adverse events, including clinical labs, vital signs, and examination findings. [Pre-baseline Up to 156 weeks]

    Sensitivity of the key efficacy analysis will be assessed for changes in dose or type of concomitant AED medications

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Proportion of subjects who achieve reduction from baseline in convulsive seizure frequency [Baseline up to 156 weeks]

  2. The longest interval between convulsive seizures will be calculated for each subject over the entire open-label treatment period. [Up to 156 weeks]

  • Subjects who are >18 to ≤35 years of age at the time of screening and did not participate in one of the core studies may be eligible for participation.

  • A documented medical history to support a clinical diagnosis of Dravet syndrome, where convulsive seizures are not completely controlled by current antiepileptic drugs.

  • Parent/caregiver is willing and able to be compliant with diary completion, visit schedule and study drug accountability.

  • Subject's parent/caregiver has been compliant with diary completion during the core study, in the opinion of the investigator (eg, at least 90% compliant).

Key Exclusion Criteria:
  • Current or past history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, myocardial infarction or stroke.

  • Current cardiac valvulopathy or pulmonary hypertension that is clinically significant and warrants discontinuation of study medication.

  • Current or past history of glaucoma.

  • Moderate or severe hepatic impairment.

  • Receiving concomitant therapy with: centrally-acting anorectic agents; monoamineoxidase inhibitors; any centrally-acting compound with clinically appreciable amount of serotonin agonist or antagonist properties, including serotonin reuptake inhibition; atomoxetine, or other centrally-acting noradrenergic agonist; cyproheptadine, and/or cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6/3A4/2B6 inhibitors/substrates.

  • Currently taking carbamazepine, oxcarbamazepine, eslicarbazepine, phenobarbital, or phenytoin, or has taken any of these within the past 30 days, as maintenance therapy.

  • A clinically significant condition, or has had clinically relevant symptoms or a clinically significant illness at Visit 1, other than epilepsy, that would negatively impact study participation, collection of study data, or pose a risk to the subject.
