Announcement: Clinical Trials at University of California, Irvine

There are two clinical trials going on at the University of California, Irvine Epilepsy Center.

The first is for a new drug called Lacosamide and will last for about 34 weeks.  People 17-65 years old with partial-onset seizures are eligible.

If you are interested, click here to find out more.

Second is the Clobazam study which I alluded to in my previous post about women and epilepsy.  It is targeted for women 15-45 years old with partial seizures who are interested in getting rid of their catamenial seizures.  There are many other requirements to qualify for the study, so if you are interested, please click here.

I hope these clinical trials may help some people achieve seizure freedom!
