Safety and Tolerability Study of SPN-817 in Adult Patients With Treatment Resistant Epilepsy
This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of SPN-817 in adults with treatment resistant seizures
Functional Brain Mapping for Patients with Epilepsy
We aim to determine the clinical utility of 'dynamic tractography': a novel method for visualizing electrical neural transfers that incorporates the underlying white matter tracts and supporting linguistic processing. We will also determine how well objective electrophysiology biomarkers will improve the prediction of language outcomes following epilepsy surgery. This project …
PET/MRI/EEG Imaging Study in Epilepsy
This study aims to better understand how epilepsy alters brain function through neuroimaging of healthy people and people with epilepsy. The study investigates how changes in brain metabolism (sugar consumption, measured by positron emission tomography \[FDG-PET\], and blood flow, measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging \[fMRI\]) relate to abnormal interictal …
Subcutaneous Intersectional Short Pulse Stimulation in Epileptic Patients
A subgaleal electrode-based system combined with the novel intersectional short-pulse (ISP) stimulation was developed to enable non-invasive, high-intensity neuromodulation. ISP consists of ultra-brief, distributed pulses to maximize electric field strength in target areas while minimizing adverse effects on non-target tissues. Early preclinical studies demonstrate its efficacy in disrupting pathological oscillations …
PHArmacotherapy Assessed Using Neuroprobing With TransOsseal Magnetic Stimulation
The goal of this observational study is to investigate how prescribed anti-seizure medications (ASMs) affect cortical excitability in adults with epilepsy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the magnitude of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-evoked potentials (TEPs) measured with electroencephalography (EEG) change between OFF and ON medication states? …
The Safety and Efficacy Evaluation of Everolimus as an Adjunctive Treatment for Focal Refractory Epilepsy
The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of everolimus as an adjunctive therapy for refractory epilepsy. The significance lies in addressing whether the mTOR inhibitor sirolimus has antiepileptic adjunctive effects for a broader range of patients with refractory epilepsy, with the hope of providing a new …
Contribution of Fast-ripples to the Improvement of the Neurosurgical Management of Drug-refractory Epilepsy
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of fast-ripples (FR) information on the neurosurgery management of patients with drug-refractory epilepsy investigated by Stereo-ElectroEncephaloGraphy (SEEG), as measured by freedom from disabling seizures one-year post-surgery. 220 patients (for whom 4-6 usual clinical macro-electrodes will be replaced by hybrid …
Seizure Prediction Using Wearable EEG
This study is a non-interventional clinical trial analyzing EEG recordings from people with epilepsy. Participants wear a comfortable EEG headband at home for several weeks. The goal is to study changes in brain activity that occur before seizures (called "pre-ictal patterns") and to test whether a software algorithm can predict …
The Value of EEG in Stroke Units
Τhe aim of the study is to investigate the role of EEG both in predicting epileptogenesis in patients with acute stroke and in detecting and clarifying the clinical significance of subclinical epileptic seizures in a stroke unit. More specifically, the performance of routine EEG in patients with ischemic or hemorrhagic …
Genetic Diagnosis and Personalized Medicine for Patients With Epilepsy
Background Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder. It affects 50 million people worldwide and has the highest incidence in pediatric age. According to the latest classification of the ILAE (International League against Epilepsy), epilepsies are divided into lesional (symptomatic) and non-lesional/genetic forms. Symptomatic causes of epilepsy may include scarring, tumors, …
