Completed · Phase 1 · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Dravet Syndrome

In brief

This is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, 2-period study in 3 sequential groups of 8 healthy subjects each. The safety and pharmacokinetics of escalating single and multiple oral doses of EPX-100 will be assessed in fasting healthy subjects and following a high-fat meal.
