10. Subject has moderate or severe hepatic impairment. Asymptomatic subjects with mild hepatic impairment (elevated liver enzymes < 3x ULN and/or elevated bilirubin <2x ULN) may be entered into the study after review and approval by the Medical Monitor in conjunction with the sponsor, in consideration of comorbidities and concomitant medications.
11. Subject has severe renal impairment (estimated glomerlular filtration rate <30mL/min/1.73m2)
12. Subject is receiving concomitant therapy with any of the following: centrally-acting anorectic agents; monoamine-oxidase inhibitors; any centrally-acting compound with clinically appreciable amount of serotonin agonist or antagonist properties, including serotonin reuptake inhibition; other centrally-acting noradrenergic agonists, including atomexetine; or cyproheptadine (see Appendix 1 for a complete list of prohibited medications). (Note: Short-term medication requirements for prohibted medications will be handled on a per case basis by the Medical Monitor.)
13. Subject has positive result on urine tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Panel or whole blood cannabidiol (CBD) at the Screening Visit.
14. Subject is taking felbamate for less than 1 year prior to screening and/or does not have stable liver function and hematology laboratory tests, and/or the dose has not been stable for at least 60 days prior to the Screening Visit.
15. Subject is known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive.
16. Subject is known to have active viral hepatitis (B or C)
17. Subject is currently receiving an investigational product.
18. Subject has participated in another clinical trial within the past 30 days (calculated from that study’s last scheduled visit). Participation in non-treatment trials will be reviewed by the medical monitor.
19. Subject is at imminent risk of self-harm or harm to others, in the investigator’s opinion, based on clinical interview and responses provided on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). Subjects must be

Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome in Children and Adults
MedDRA version: 20.1
Level: PT
Classification code 10048816

Intervention(s)
|
Product Name: FENFLURAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE Pharmaceutical Form: Oral solution INN or Proposed INN: Fenfluramine CAS Number: 404-82-0 Current Sponsor code: ZX008 Other descriptive name: Fenfluramine HCl, DL-Fenfluramine, (±)-Fenfluramine Concentration unit: mg/ml milligram(s)/millilitre Concentration type: up to Concentration number: 5- Pharmaceutical form of the placebo: Oral solution Route of administration of the placebo: Oral use

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Main Objective: The primary objective of Part 1 is to evaluate the effect of ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/day versus placebo as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled seizures in children and adults with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) based on the change in frequency of seizures that result in drops between baseline and the combined Titration and Maintenance Periods (T+M) The primary objective of Part 2 is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ZX008 in children and adults with LGS with regard to adverse events (AEs), laboratory parameters, physical examination, neurological examination, suicidality, cognition (BRIEF), vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and respiratory rate), electrocardiograms (ECG), echocardiograms (ECHO), body weight, and BMI.
|
Secondary Objective: The key secondary objectives of Part 1 are: • Evaluation of effect of ZX008 0.2 mg/kg/day vs placebo as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled seizures in children and adults with LGS based on the change in frequency of seizures that result in drops between baseline and T+M • Evaluation of effect of ZX008 0.2 and 0.8 mg/kg/day (independently) vs placebo on the endpoints listed in Protocol synopsis. The secondary objectives of Part 2 are assessment of effect of ZX008 relative to the baseline on the effectiveness measures, and determination of incidence of medical services used to treat seizures; of status epilepticus and of rescue medication.
|
Primary end point(s): Part 1 Efficacy: The efficacy endpoint for Part 1 of the study is: • Number, frequency, and duration of countable seizures that result in drops for the 0.8 mg/kg/day
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Data from Part 1 will constitute the primary analyses of the study and will be performed upon database lock after the last subject enrolled has completed the last study visit of Part 1. The frequency of seizures that result in drops during the Part 2 OLE Treatment Period will be compared to baseline frequency measured prior to randomization in Part 1. Both the mean and median change from baseline will be presented and the statistical significance of the change will be assessed using a Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Other secondary assessments will be compared to baseline from prior to Part 1, or by visit throughout Part 1 and Part 2, as appropriate.
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: NA
|
Secondary end point(s): Number, frequency, and duration of countable seizures that do not result in drops
• Number, frequency, and duration of all countable seizures by type
• Proportion of subjects who achieve a =25%, =50%, =75%, or 100% reduction from baseline in seizure frequency
• Number of seizure-free days
• Clinical Global Impression – Improvement as assessed by parent/caregiver
• Clinical Global Impression – Improvement as assessed by principal investigator
• Affective symptoms of parent/caregiver using the HADS scale
• Number of episodes of status epilepticus
• Number of instances of rescue medication use and number of doses
• Incidence in use of medical services to treat seizures
Efficacy endpoints for Part 2 are identical, with the exception of the HADS and CGI assessments, which are exploratory during the open-label extension.

• Neurological examination
• BRIEF to measure changes in cognition of the subject
• Columbia Suicidality Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
• 12-lead ECGs
• Doppler ECHOs
• Body weight and BMI
Exploratory:
The exploratory endpoints for Part 1 and Part 2 of the study are:
• VABS
• QOLCE
• Zarit Caregiver Burden Inventory
Pharmacokinetics:
Steady-state plasma fenfluramine and norfenfluramine PK parameters (average plasma concentration (Cavg ss) and area under the concentration time curve from time zero to time=t (AUC0-t) after administration of ZX008 derived using a PBPK model.
Part 2
The primary objective of Part 2 is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ZX008 in children and adults with LGS with regard to AEs, laboratory parameters, physical examination, neurological examination, vital signs, ECG, ECHO, and body weight.
