Dravet Syndrome Understanding

Dravet Syndrome: Overview

Dravet Syndrome is a severe and progressive genetic epilepsy characterized by frequent, prolonged and refractory seizures that usually begin within the first year of life. Dravet Syndrome is classified as a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy due to the developmental delays and cognitive impairment, in addition to seizure activity, that stem from the genetic mutation that causes the disease. Approximately 85% of those diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome have a mutation of the SCN1A gene.1 Dravet Syndrome is not usually caused by an inherited mutation. In 90% of these patients, the mutation is not found in the patient’s parents Dravet Syndrome can be diagnosed, if a patient exhibits specific symptoms, genetic testing may be done via an epilepsy panel, to look for SCN1A and other genes commonly associated with epilepsy. Dravet syndrome is characterized by frequent, prolonged and refractory seizures that usually begin within the first year of life. However, the effects of Dravet syndrome are not limited to seizures, developmental delays, movement and balance issues and also language and speech disturbances. Dravet syndrome has a high rate of premature death due to the severity of this type of epilepsy. Up to 20% of children and adolescents living with Dravet die before adulthood.

' Dravet Syndrome - Pipeline Insight, 2022' report by DelveInsight outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Dravet Syndrome pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Dravet Syndrome treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Dravet Syndrome commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development.

Dravet Syndrome Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Dravet Syndrome report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Dravet Syndrome Emerging Drugs
  • Soticlestat : Takeda
Soticlestat is a potent, highly selective, oral, first-in-class inhibitor of the enzyme cholesterol 24-hydroxylase (CH24H) ), with the potential to reduce seizure susceptibility and improve seizure control. CH24H is predominantly expressed in the brain, where it converts cholesterol into 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24HC) to adjust the homeostatic balance of brain cholesterol. 24HC is a positive allosteric modulator of the NMDA receptor and modulates glutamatergic signaling associated with epilepsy. Glutamate is one of the main neurotransmitters in the brain and has been shown to play a role in the initiation and spread of seizure activity. Recent literature indicates that CH24H is involved in over-activation of the glutamatergic pathway through modulation of the NMDA channel and that increased expression of CH24H can disrupt the reuptake of glutamate by astrocytes, resulting in epileptogenesis and neurotoxicity. Inhibition of CH24H by soticlestat reduces the neuronal levels of 24HC and may improve excitatory/inhibitory balance of NMDA channel activity.. It is being investigated by Ovid and Takeda for the treatment of rare developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs), a group of highly refractory epilepsy syndromes including Dravet Syndrome and LGS. Soticlestat is in Phase 3 stage of development for the treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
  • Lorcaserin : Eisai Inc.
Lorcaserin is a selective serotonin 5-HT2c receptor agonist. Stimulation of 5-HT2c receptors with lorcaserin may increase GABA-mediated inhibition and result in reduced seizure activity in Dravet syndrome patients. It is in Phase 3 stage of development for treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
  • EPX100 : Epygenix Therapeutics
EPX-100 is a first-generation antihistamine safely used from the 1950-1970s. EPX-100 was found to be a powerful suppressor of spontaneous convulsive behavior and electrographic seizures in zebrafish disease models for Dravet Syndrome. EPX-100’s antiepileptic action is not through a histaminergic mechanism of action but acts via modulation of serotonin (5HT) signaling pathways. It is in Phase 2 stage of development for the treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
  • STK-001 : Stoke Therapeutics
STK-001 is an investigational new medicine for the treatment of Dravet syndrome currently being evaluated in ongoing clinical trials. Stoke believes that STK-001, a proprietary antisense oligonucleotide (ASO), has the potential to be the first disease-modifying therapy to address the genetic cause of Dravet syndrome. STK-001 is designed to upregulate NaV1.1 protein expression by leveraging the non-mutant (wild-type) copy of the SCN1A gene to restore physiological NaV1.1 levels, thereby reducing both occurrence of seizures and significant non-seizure comorbidities. STK-001 has been granted orphan drug designation by the FDA as a potential new treatment for Dravet syndrome. It is in phase 2 stage of development for the treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
  • VRP324 : Virpax Pharmaceuticals
VRP324 Intranasal pharmaceutical-grade Schedule V cannabidiol (CBD). Highly purified pharmaceutical-grade cannabidiol (CBD), approved in the United States, has demonstrated efficacy with an acceptable safety profile in patients with Lennox-Gastaut or Dravet syndrome. CBD acts on cannabinoid (CB) receptors of the endocannabinoid system, which are found in numerous body areas, including the peripheral system and the central nervous systems, including the brain. The endocannabinoid system regulates many physiological responses of the body and neuronal excitability responses relevant to the pathophysiology of many disease types, including epilepsy. It is in Pre-Clinical stage of development for the treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
  • AntagoNAT : OPKO Health
AntagoNATs are oligonucleotide compounds that target non-coding natural antisense transcripts leading to an upregulation of a desired functional protein. CAMP4 has prioritized OPKO’s lead AntagoNAT compound to progress into clinical trials for the treatment of Dravet syndrome. It is in Pre-Clinical stage of development for the treatment of Dravet Syndrome.
