Core Tip |
For young people with epilepsy, the framework of drug development has stalled. The misconception emerged that for people < 18 years drugs, including antiseizure medications (ASMs), need separate proof of efficacy and safety, overall called “pediatric drug development”. For ASMs, the authorities require "extrapolation of efficacy," as if minors were another species. Relevant parts of pediatric epilepsy research were pointless, and research on meaningful goals was hampered. ASMs work also before the 18th birthday. We should learn to prevent brain damage in young patients by preventing seizures and by optimize ASMs’ use. |
