Active clinical trials for "Lennox Gastaut Syndrome"

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral topiramate in patients with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect on the frequency of all seizures (convulsive and drop) in participants treated with TAK-935 compared to placebo.

This is an open label study to evaluate the safety of ZX008 (fenfluramine) in patients with Dravet syndrome (DS) or Lennox Gastaut syndrome (LGS) who are being administered cannabidiol (CBD).

To evaluate the efficacy of GWP42003-P as adjunctive treatment in reducing the number of drop seizures when compared with placebo, in participants with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS).

This study was designed to evaluate the cognitive effect, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of rufinamide on Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) inadequately controlled in pediatric participants already taking other anti-epileptic drugs.

Twenty to thirty percent of children with epilepsy continue to suffer from seizures, even when treated with currently available anticonvulsant medications. Children with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) are particularly handicapped by atonic-myoclonic seizures. Preliminary data suggest that even when other medications have failed, these seizures may respond rapidly and dramatically to a high-fat-low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet. The purpose of the study is to assess if the classic ketogenic diet is efficacious in reducing seizure frequency, medication toxicity, and improves quality of life.

This is a single center open-label pilot clinical trial of patients 1-70 years of age with greater than 6 seizures per month diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, Tuberous Sclerosis, or focal seizures. Twenty patients will be enrolled and treated with a stable dose of orally administered turmeric oil daily for 3 months. Patients and caregivers will be asked to keep a seizure diary logging all clinical events during the course of the study. Serum comprehensive metabolic panel, complete blood count with differential, and antiseizure medication levels, will be monitored at baseline, 1.5 months, and at the end of 3 months.

Lennox-Gastaut syndrome is a severe epileptic encephalopathy of childhood. In that syndrome, various type of seizure occur, mainly tonic seizures, atonic seizures and atypical absences. The tonic seizure occur mostly at night. The hypothesis is that the melatonin could have a positive effect in that syndrome, by reducing the epileptic activity (assessed in the polysomnographic record by counting the number of interictal and ictal discharges) and stabilizing the structure of sleep. The study is double blind, randomised, cross-over designed.

This study is being conducted to evaluate the effects of GWP42003-P on cognition in pediatric participants, aged 3 to 10 years, with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS).

The main aims of this study are to gather information about how many children, teenagers and adults in Spain have been diagnosed with Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome as well as to learn about the number of new Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome cases in persons in Spain. Participants' data will be taken from their medical records (charts), which were already collected as a part of their routine care in public hospitals in Spain between 01 January 2021 and 31 December 2022.
