Abstract

Fenfluramine (FFA), an antiseizure medication (ASM) with serotonergic and sigma-1 receptor activity, is used to manage patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs). It is approved in the US for treating seizures associated with Dravet syndrome (DS) and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) in patients ≥2 years old and as add-on therapy for seizures associated with DS and LGS in the EU, UK, and Japan in similarly aged patients. Consensus guidelines for treatment of DS have recommended FFA to be an early-line ASM, and it has also shown efficacy in managing seizures associated with LGS. DS and LGS are DEEs associated with a range of seizure types, developmental impairments, and multiple comorbidities. Here we provide case vignettes describing 4 patients (3 DS and 1 LGS) aged 4-29 years old in whom up to 14 ASMs had previously failed, to illustrate real-world practice issues encountered by neurologists. This review provides guidance on the use of FFA in the context of ASM polytherapy and drug-drug interactions (DDIs), behavioral issues, dose titration, and adverse events. Along with data from the clinical trial program, these case vignettes emphasize the low risk of DDIs, a generally well-tolerated safety profile, and other seizure and nonseizure benefits (eg, improved cognition and sleep) associated with the use of FFA in DS or LGS. PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: Fenfluramine is used to treat seizures in individuals with Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, but there are a range of issues that clinicians may face when treating patients. This review highlights four patients from the authors' everyday clinical work and offers guidance and practical considerations by neurologists with expertise in managing these complex conditions related to drug interactions, dosing, and side effects associated with fenfluramine.

摘要

芬氟拉明(FFA)是一种具有血清素能和 sigma-1 受体活性的抗癫痫药物(ASM),用于治疗发育性和癫痫性脑病(DEE)患者。它已获得美国批准,用于治疗与 Dravet 综合征(DS)和 Lennox-Gastaut 综合征(LGS)相关的癫痫发作,以及在欧盟、英国和日本用于治疗与 DS 和 LGS 相关的癫痫发作的附加疗法,适用于年龄在 2 岁及以上的患者。治疗 DS 的共识指南建议将 FFA 作为一线 ASM,并且它在治疗与 LGS 相关的癫痫发作方面也显示出疗效。DS 和 LGS 是与多种癫痫发作类型、发育障碍和多种合并症相关的 DEE。在这里,我们提供了 4 例年龄在 4-29 岁的患者的病例描述(3 例 DS 和 1 例 LGS),这些患者之前已经尝试了多达 14 种 ASM 治疗方案,以说明神经病学家在实践中遇到的问题。本综述提供了关于在 ASM 联合治疗和药物-药物相互作用(DDI)、行为问题、剂量滴定和不良反应的背景下使用 FFA 的指导。结合临床试验计划的数据,这些病例说明强调了 DDI 风险低、总体耐受性良好的安全性特征以及与 DS 或 LGS 中使用 FFA 相关的其他癫痫发作和非癫痫发作益处(例如,改善认知和睡眠)。
