Evaluating Long Term Safety of Lacosamide (LCM) to Carbamazepine Controlled-release (CBZ-CR); Initial Monotherapy in Epilepsy Subjects 16 Years and Older
A Multicenter, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Follow up Study Evaluating the Long-term Safety of Lacosamide in Comparison With Carbamazepine Used as Monotherapy in Subjects With Partial-onset or Generalized Tonic-clonic Seizures ≥16 Years of Age Coming From the SP0993 Study.

Compare safety of Lacosamide (LCM) to Carbamazepine Controlled-Release (CBZ-CR) as monotherapy in newly or recently newly diagnosed subjects with primary safety variables including spontaneous reports of Adverse Events (AEs), withdrawal of subjects due to AEs, reporting of Serious AEs (SAEs).
