Résumé
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by pharmacoresistant seizures and developmental delay. Patients with DEEs experience multiple seizure types, including tonic-clonic seizures (TCS) that can be generalized tonic-clonic (GTCS) or focal evolving to bilateral tonic-clonic (FBTCS). Fenfluramine (FFA) has demonstrated efficacy in reduction of TCS in patients with Dravet syndrome (DS), Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), and other DEEs. Using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Review) guidelines, we performed a scoping review to describe changes in TCS in patients treated with FFA. A comprehensive search of five literature databases was conducted up to February 14, 2023. Studies were included if they reported change in GTCS or TCS (but not FBTCS) after treatment with FFA in patients with DEEs. Duplicate patients and studies with unclear efficacy data were excluded. Fourteen of 422 studies met the eligibility criteria. Data extracted and evaluated by expert clinicians identified 421 unique patients with DS (in nine studies), CDKL5 deficiency disorder, SCN8A-related disorder, LGS, SCN1B-related disorder, and other DEEs. The median percent reduction in GTCS or TCS from baseline was available in 10 studies (n = 328) and ranged from 47.2% to 100%. Following FFA treatment, 10 studies (n = 144) reported ≥50% reduction in GTCS or TCS from baseline in 72% of patients; in nine of those (n = 112), 54% and 29% of patients achieved ≥75% and 100% reduction in GTCS or TCS from baseline, respectively. Overall, this analysis highlighted improvements in GTCS or TCS frequency when patients were treated with FFA regardless of the DEE evaluated. Future studies may confirm the impact of FFA on TCS reduction and on decreased premature mortality risk (including sudden unexpected death in epilepsy), improvement in comorbidities and everyday executive function, decreased health care costs, and improvement in quality of life.
