- Response Ratio of Gabapentin in Japanese Pediatric Patients With Partial Seizures [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]The Response Ratio calculated by the following equation was assessed as the primary endpoint: R Ratio = (T-B) / (T+B) where T is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 12-week treatment period, and B is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 6-week baseline period.
- Responder Rate [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]Responder Rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with a 50% or greater reduction in the seizure frequency per 28 days for the 12-week treatment period in comparison with the frequency per 28 days for the 6-week baseline period.
- Percent Change in Seizure Frequency (PCH) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]PCH calculated by the following equation was assessed as secondary endpoint: PCH = 100 (T-B) / B where T is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 12-week treatment period, and B is seizure frequency per 28 days (i.e., the number of seizures per 28 days) calculated from the total number of seizures for the 6-week baseline period.
