Abstract: Purpose: The safety and effectiveness of perampanel in clinical settings involving Chinese pediatric patients are limited, as perampanel has only recently been approved for use in China, in September 2019. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of perampanel as an adjunctive therapy for pediatric patients with epilepsy aged ≥ 4 years in Xinjiang, Northwest China.

“…Therefore, adjunctive perampanel therapy has been demonstrated as an effective and safe treatment for both adult and pediatric patients with FOS. However, in China, as perampanel was not approved for treating FOS until September 2019 (13), there have been only 4 observational studies on the efficacy and safety of adjunctive perampanel in treating FOS in Chinese adult patients (11,14,18,19) and 6 observational studies on perampanel add-on in treating Chinese pediatric patients with epilepsy (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32), none of which was on perampanel early add-on therapy. In the current multicenter, openlabel, single-arm interventional study, we aimed to assess efficacy and…”
