Advances in Sodium Channel Modulation in Epilepsy Therapy: Focus on Eslicarbazepine, Lacosamide and Cenobamate [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are among the most important molecular targets in epilepsy therapy. Unlike classical antiseizure medications (ASMs), newer sodium channel modulators selectively affect slow inactivation or ...

Cenobamate use in super‐refractory status epilepticus: A report of three cases [PDF]
Abstract Objectives Super‐refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a neurological emergency with high morbidity and mortality. Cenobamate, a novel antiseizure medication, may be helpful in managing SRSE, but evidence is limited. Methods This retrospective case series reports the use of cenobamate as add‐on therapy in the management of three cases of ...

Therapeutic strategies during cenobamate treatment initiation: Delphi panel recommendations [PDF]
The goal of epilepsy treatment is seizure freedom, typically with antiseizure medication (ASM). If patients fail to attain seizure control despite two trials of appropriately chosen ASMs at adequate doses, they are classified as having drug-resistant ...

Early Introduction of Cenobamate in Uncontrolled Focal Epilepsy: Insights from a Structured Controversy [PDF]
Introduction Drug-resistant focal epilepsy, as defined by the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), is characterized by the failure to achieve seizure control despite the use of at least two appropriately chosen and adequately dosed antiseizure ...
