No peer-reviewed publication reporting this trial's results has been linked yet. This can indicate results are unpublished — a known publication-bias signal. We re-check periodically.
Summary
This study evaluates the effect of withdrawing amifampridine phosphate treatment from patients with LEMS. One half of the patients will continue to receive amifampridine phosphate and the other half will receive placebo, during this double-blind study.
