Participant has a documented diagnosis or likely diagnosis of Dravet syndromeaccording to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria and as agreedby the Epilepsy Study Consortium (ESC)
Participant must be currently receiving ≥1 concomitant anti seizure medication (ASM)at a stable dose for ≥4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit and is expected to remainstable throughout the study. Rescue medications for seizures are not counted towardsthe total number of ASMs
Participant must have drug resistant epilepsy as defined as a history of failure ofadequate trials of 2 tolerated, appropriately chosen and used antiepileptic drugschedules (whether as monotherapies or in combination) to achieve sustained seizurefreedom
Participants must have ≥1 countable motor seizures (CMS) during the Baseline Period.The CMS include distinct seizures of generalized tonic-clonic, bilateral clonic,focal motor, bilateral tonic, atonic (drop), bilateral tonic/atonic, or focal tobilateral tonic-clonic type. If the participant fails to have ≥1 qualifying seizuresin 28 days, the Baseline Period may be extended by an additional 14 days withSponsor approval. Participants with an extended Baseline Period must still have ≥1CMS in the 28 days immediately prior to the day of the first administration of studydrug

Participant is receiving concomitant therapy with any of the following:centrally-acting anorectic agents; monoamine-oxidase inhibitors; anycentrally-acting compound with clinically appreciable amount of serotonin agonist orantagonist properties, including serotonin reuptake inhibition; othercentrally-acting noradrenergic agonists, including atomoxetine; or cyproheptadine.Disallowed medications are subject to washout of ≥5 half-lives before the first dayof study drug administration
Participant is currently receiving another investigational product(s) or hasreceived another investigational product within 30 days or within <5 times thehalf-life of that investigational product, whichever is longer, prior to theScreening Visit
