A RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, PARALLEL GROUP, MULTI-CENTER TRIAL OF PREGABALIN AS ADJUNCTIVE THERAPY IN PEDIATRIC AND ADULT SUBJECTS WITH PRIMARY GENERALIZED TONIC-CLONIC SEIZURES - PROTOCOL A0081105
The study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of two doses of
pregabalin as add-on treatment in pediatric and adult subjects with Primary Generalized
Tonic-Clonic (PGTC) seizures as compared to placebo. It is hypothesized that both doses of
pregabalin will demonstrated superior efficacy when compared to placebo by reducing PGTC
seizure frequency and that pregabalin will be safe and well tolerated.

- Any change in anti-epileptic treatment regimen (type of medication or dose; VNS
alteration) within 28 days of the screening visit or during the baseline phase
- Progressive or potentially progressive structural CNS lesion or a progressive
encephalopathy.
- Progressive inborn errors of metabolism.
