Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEE): Understanding

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEE): Overview

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy (DEE) refers to a group of severe epilepsies that are characterized both by seizures, which are often drug-resistant, as well as encephalopathy, which is a term used to describe significant developmental delay or even loss of developmental skills. In the DEEs, there are two factors that contribute to the developmental delay. Developmental delay or even loss of developmental skills. In the DEEs, there are two factors that contribute to the developmental delay.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies represent a group of severe epilepsy syndromes characterized by early-onset seizures and significant cognitive impairment. Symptoms typically include frequent and severe seizures (such as myoclonic, tonic, or atonic seizures), developmental delays, behavioral issues (like hyperactivity and aggression), cognitive deficits, and motor impairments. These conditions often lead to a regression of previously acquired developmental skills, with many affected individuals experiencing lifelong challenges in cognitive and motor functions.

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies represent a complex group of severe neurological disorders characterized by early-onset seizures and significant cognitive impairment. The pathophysiology of DEE is multifaceted, involving both genetic mutations and structural brain abnormalities that disrupt normal brain development and function. Key factors include the impact of frequent seizures on cognitive development, as well as the underlying genetic defects that can lead to varying degrees of neurodevelopmental delay. For instance, mutations in genes such as SCN1A and KCNQ2 are commonly associated with specific DEEs, influencing the severity of seizures and developmental outcomes.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies are severe epilepsy syndromes with frequent seizures and developmental impairments, often starting in infancy or early childhood. Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, EEG, genetic testing, and neuroimaging like MRI. Symptoms can evolve, complicating diagnosis, and initial tests may not always reveal abnormalities. Management focuses on seizure control, which may improve cognitive outcomes but rarely resolves underlying developmental challenges.

Treatment for Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies focuses on managing seizures and improving quality of life. Anti-seizure medications like clobazam and vigabatrin are tailored to the specific syndrome. Refractory cases may require interventions like vagus nerve stimulation, ketogenic diets, or surgery. Emerging therapies, including gene therapies, aim to address genetic causes while balancing seizure control with minimizing medication side effects.

It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEE) Emerging Drugs

LP352: Lundbeck

LP352 is an oral, centrally acting, 5-HT2c superagonist in development for the potential treatment of seizures associated with DEEs such as Dravet syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD), and other epileptic disorders. LP352 is designed to modulate GABA and, as a result, suppress the central hyperexcitability that is characteristic of seizures. LP352 has demonstrated negligible observed impact on 5-HT2b and 5-HT2a receptor subtypes in preclinical studies to date. 5-HT2b and 5-HT2a receptor agonism have been associated with significant adverse side effects. LP352 has novel chemistry and attributes. It was designed to be more specific and selective for the 5-HT2c receptor subtype, giving it the potential to reduce seizures in patients with DEEs while overcoming the known or perceived safety limitations of available drugs in the 5-HT2 class. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies.

NBI-921352: Neurocrine Biosciences

NBI-921352 is an investigational selective Nav1.6 sodium channel inhibitor for the potential treatment of SCN8A-DEE. Neurocrine acquired exclusive rights to NBI-921352 from Xenon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and received orphan drug and rare pediatric disease designations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for NBI-921352 in SCN8A-DEE. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies.

CAP-002: Capsida Biotherapeutics

CAP-002 is a wholly owned first-in-class next-generation IV-administered gene therapy that is designed to stably supplement STXBP1 protein throughout the brain after a single intravenous infusion while providing a superior safety profile compared to traditional gene therapy approaches by lowering dose and de-targeting non-therapeutic organs. This potential disease modifying therapy aims to correct the underlying disease pathology to alleviate disease manifestations for patients with STXBP1-DEE. The STXBP1 program is in IND-enabling studies to support initiation of clinical trials in the first half of 2025.
