Interventions
- AV078 — DRUGAV078 is a selective inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) administered orally once daily. Dosing may be adjusted based on measured drug concentrations to achieve target exposure levels.
- Placebo — DRUGMatching oral placebo administered once daily. The placebo is formulated to match AV078 and may undergo dose adjustments similar to active treatment to maintain blinding.
Study Details
This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of oral AV078 in participants with refractory epilepsy due to tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Approximately 42 participants will be randomized in a 5:1 ratio to receive AV078 or placebo. The study will include a Screening Period collecting 4 weeks of pre-treatment Baseline data on seizure frequency, and progress to a 12-week Treatment Period, followed by an in person final follow-up visit approximately 2 weeks after the last dose.

Arms
- Experimental: AV078Participants will receive oral AV078 once daily in addition to their stable background anti-seizure medication regimen for 12 weeks. Dosing will be titrated based on measured drug concentrations to achieve target exposure levels.
- Placebo Comparator: PlaceboParticipants will receive matching oral placebo once daily in addition to their stable background anti-seizure medication regimen for 12 weeks. Dose adjustments may be performed in a manner similar to active treatment to maintain blinding.
Primary Outcome Measure
Change From Baseline in Seizure Frequency [ Time Frame: Baseline (28-day period prior to treatment) to end of treatment (Week 12) ]
