Abstract
⺠LEV PK was evaluated in a phase 2 study in TBI patients with high risk of PTE. ⺠LEV 55 mg/kg/d was given â¤Â 8 h after TBI for 30 days, with PK done on days 3/30. ⺠PK was similar to PK in chronic epilepsy patients, across different administration routes and across ages. ⺠Plasma levels were similar to those seen in positive animal antiepileptogenic studies. ⺠The study lays the groundwork for LEV evaluation in a phase 3 study of PTE prevention.
