  • Clinician Global Impression of Severity (CGI/S) Score [At Day 365 (EOT)]: The CGIC/S is a comprehensive neurodevelopmental assessment that covers the following domains: sensory, motor, cognition, emotional/behavioral health, communication, social, and adaptive functioning. This assessment is a 2-question survey per domain to be completed by the clinician. Individual domain scores are reported. The severity of impairment in each domain is rated by the clinician in a scale of 1 through 7 where 1 = Normal, not at all ill; 2 = Borderline ill; 3 = Mildly ill; 4 = Moderately ill; 5 = Markedly ill; 6 = Severely ill; 7 = Among the most extremely ill. Higher scores indicate poor clinical outcome.

Higher scores indicate poor clinical outcome.

Secondary outcomes

  • Number of Treatment Responders [Day 1 up to the taper period, up to Week 52]: Treatment Responders are defined as participants with ≥ 50% reduction from baseline in caregiver-reported total countable seizures
  • Number of Participants Who Achieved Seizure-Free Status [Week 12, and every 4 weeks thereafter, up to date of withdrawal or Week 24, whichever occurs first]
  • Percentage of Participants Still Receiving GWP42003-P [Week 12, and every 4 weeks thereafter, up to date of withdrawal or Week 24, whichever occurs first]

Other outcomes

  • Infant and Toddler Quality of Life Questionnaire Short Form 47 (ITQOL-47) Score [At Day 365 (EOT)]: The Infant and Toddler Quality of Life Questionnaire Short Form 47 (ITQOL-47) was developed for use in infants and toddlers from 12-months-to-5 years of age and assesses levels of health and well-being. The caregiver will complete the assessment on an electronic device. For each concept, item responses are scored, summed, and transformed on a scale from 0 (worst health) to 100 (best health). Higher scores indicate better clinical outcome.

+Eligibility

Sex: All, ages: 1 Month to 23 Months

Key Inclusion Criteria:

* Participants with TSC (1 month to < 2 years of age), or DS (1 year to < 2 years of age), or LGS (1 year to < 2 years of age) within the specified age range at the time of initial informed consent.
* Parent(s)/legal representative is/are willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study.
* Parent(s)/legal representative is/are willing and able (in the investigator's opinion) to comply with all study requirements (including accurate electronic participant-reported outcome \[ePRO\] diary completion).
* Participants with TSC must have a diagnosis per the 2012 International Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Consensus Conference. Participants with LGS or DS must have a diagnosis that is consistent with International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) guidelines and confirmed by the Epilepsy Study Consortium (ESCI).
* Participants who have uncontrolled seizures, and who are currently receiving 1 or more antiseizure medication (ASMs).
* A suitable VEEG, as available in the medical record, within 1 year of Visit 1. When a historical VEEG is not available, and if clinically indicated and appropriate (due to uncertainties or new seizures), a VEEG will be completed and read to confirm diagnosis prior to Visit 3. All VEEGs are to be read at baseline by the investigator and by an independent reviewer.
* Has seizures which are not adequately controlled through their current ASMs, defined as ≥ 1 seizure reported on the seizure diary during the screening/baseline period

Key Exclusion Criteria:

* Has tumor growth which, in the opinion of the investigator, could affect participant safety.
* Has clinically significant abnormal laboratory values, in the investigator's opinion, at screening/baseline.
* Has clinically significant abnormalities in the electrocardiogram (ECG) measured at screening/baseline.
* Has any concurrent cardiovascular conditions, that will, in the investigator's opinion, interfere with the ability to assess their ECGs.
* Has any known or suspected hypersensitivity to cannabinoids or any of the excipients of the study intervention such as sesame seed oil.
* Has significantly impaired hepatic function prior to Visit 3, defined as:

  * Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 3 × upper limit of normal (ULN) and (total bilirubin \[TBL\] > 2 × ULN or international normalized ratio \[INR\] > 1.5).
  * Serum ALT or AST > 5 × ULN.
  * Serum ALT or AST > 3 × ULN with the presence of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia (> 5%).
  * Elevated ALT or AST should be discussed with the medical monitor prior to Visit 3; the medical monitor may allow for a confirmatory re-draw prior to Visit 3.
* Has received another study intervention within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 or plans to take another study intervention during the study.
* Has any other clinically significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the participant, other participants, or site staff at risk because of participation in the study, may influence the result of the study, or may affect the participant's ability to take part in the study.
* Any clinically significant abnormalities identified following a physical examination of the participant that, in the opinion of the investigator, would jeopardize the safety of the participant if they took part in the study.
* Has previously been enrolled into this study.
* Has plans to travel outside their country of residence during the study, unless the participant has confirmation that the study intervention is permitted in the destination country.

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
