Introduction: The non-interventional Phase IV PROVE study (NCT03208660) assessed retention, efficacy, safety and tolerability, and perampanel dosing in patients with epilepsy during routine clinical care. This analysis evaluated final data from patients aged <4 years and 4-<12 years.
Methods: Data were obtained retrospectively from medical/pharmacy records of patients in the United States initiating perampanel after January 1, 2014, according to treating clinician recommendations.
Purpose: Report final data from adolescent (12-<18 years) and adult (≥18 years) patients from PROVE (NCT03208660), a multicenter, retrospective, non-interventional, Phase IV study to assess retention, efficacy, safety, and dosing of perampanel in patients with epilepsy during routine clinical care.
Methods: Data were retrospectively collected from medical/pharmacy records of patients in the US initiating perampanel after January 1, 2014, according to treating clinicians' recommendation. Retention rate was the primary efficacy endpoint.
PROVE is a retrospective, phase IV study assessing retention, dosing, efficacy, and safety of perampanel when administered to patients during routine clinical care. We report an interim analysis of preadolescent (1 to <12 years) and adolescent (12 to <18 years) patients. Data were obtained from medical records of patients with epilepsy initiating perampanel after January 1, 2014; cut-off date for this analysis was October 10, 2018.

This study provided children with treatment-resistant epilepsy (TRE) access to plant-derived highly purified cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex® in the US; Epidyolex® in the EU; 100 mg/mL oral solution). These children had failed to achieve seizure freedom with available treatment options and were ineligible to participate in randomized controlled trials that only included patients with Lennox-Gastaut and Dravet syndromes.
