Summary
The study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an investigational drug-ganaxolone -
on partial seizure frequency in adults with epilepsy taking a maximum of 3 antiepileptic
medications (AEDs). The study will also evaluate the effectiveness of ganaxolone in females
with catamenial epilepsy.
Catamenial epilepsy refers to a relationship between seizure frequency and a woman's
menstrual cycle, where the number of seizures increases around the time of a woman's
menstrual cycle.
