Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

UCB is developing BRV(Brivaracetam) as an adjunctive antiepileptic treatment in subjects 16 years and older suffering from focal epilepsy. N01379 will give subjects who have completed N01358 the opportunity to access BRV (Brivaracetam)  under the present protocol. N01358 is an adequate and well-controlled study to provide additional data confirming the efficacy and safety of BRV (Brivaracetam) as an AED (Anti Epiletic Drug) in adults (more than or equal to16 years) with refractory POS whether or not secondarily generalized. N01379 will explore the long-term safety and efficacy of BRV (Brivaracetam) in subjects with POS (Partial Onset Seizures) whether or not secondarily generalized while providing access to BRV (Brivaracetam) for subjects who may benefit from open-label treatment with BRV (Brivaracetam) .

Study is globally in recruitment. In India recruitment has started.
