Conditions

  • Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Interventions

DRUG

Early Vigabatrin

Subjects randomized to vigabatrin will be treated with vigabatrin 100mg/kg/day until 24 months of age or until they show evidence of clinical seizures or electrographic seizures on video EEG. If electrographic or clinical seizures occur while on study drug, they will transition into the Open label phase of the study and continue to be followed until 36 months of age.

DRUG

Delayed Vigabatrin (Placebo)

Subjects randomized to placebo will be treated with matching placebo at 100mg/kg/day until 24 months of age or until they show evidence of clinical seizures or electrographic seizures on video EEG. If electrographic or clinical seizures occur while on study drug, they will transition into the Open label phase of the study and continue to be followed until 36 months of age.
