- Percentage of Subjects on Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy at Any Time Between Visit 1 and End of Study [ Time Frame: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years) ]Percentage of Subjects on Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy at any time between Visit 1 and End of Study.
- Duration of Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy Treatment From Visit 1 to End of Study [ Time Frame: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years) ]Duration of total Lacosamide Monotherapy From Visit 1 to End of Study.
- Occurrence of At Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) From Visit 1 to End of Study [ Time Frame: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years) ]
A TEAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence (eg, noxious or pathological changes) in a subject or clinical investigation subject compared with pre-existing conditions, that occurs during any phase of a clinical trial including Pretreatment, Run-In, Wash-Out, or Follow-Up Phases.
An TEAE is defined as being independent of assumption of any causality (eg, to trial or concomitant medication, primary or concomitant disease, or trial design).
- Occurrence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) Leading to Subject Withdrawal From Visit 1 to End of Study [ Time Frame: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years) ]
