Summary

Approximately 30% percent of subjects with partial seizures are refractory to treatment with single or combination antiepileptic drugs. The present study will compare the efficacy of two different dosages of pregabalin CR dosed once daily as compared to placebo, when used as adjunctive therapy in subjects requiring adjunctive therapy for partial onset epilepsy, using a randomized, parallel group design.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of epilepsy with partial onset seizures (seizures may be simple or complex, with or without evolution into a bilateral, convulsive seizure)
  • Currently taking 1 to 3 anti-epilepsy medicines (AEDs) at stable dosages, and who have taken at least 2 prior (or ongoing) AEDs

Exclusion Criteria

  • Primary generalized seizures (for example, absence, myoclonic seizures or Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome)
  • Status epilepticus within one year prior to screening
