Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

- * Evidence by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the past that has ruled out a progressive cause of epilepsy.
- * Participant must have been receiving stable doses of allowable ASMs (a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3 ASMs).
- * Participant and/or caregiver (if applicable) self-reports at least 2 countable focal onset seizures per month for focal onset patients, or 1 countable generalized tonic-clonic seizure per month in the 3 months immediately prior to the Screening/Observation Period for PGTCS patients.
- * History of pseudo or psychogenic seizures, or cluster seizures only, within the 12-month period preceding study entry where the individual seizures cannot be counted, or an episode of convulsive status epilepticus requiring hospitalization and intubation in the 12 months prior to Screening.

- * Has received any other experimental or investigational drug, device or other therapy within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to Screening, or any prior use of gene therapy.
- * Vigabatrin: Use in the last 5 years without stable visual fields tested twice over the 12 months after the last dose of vigabatrin.
- * Felbamate: If used as a concomitant ASM, patients must be on felbamate for at least 2 years, with a stable dose for 2 months prior to Screening. If a patient received felbamate in the past, it must have been discontinued 2 months prior to Screening.
