On the basis of this evidence, activation of Kv7.2 and Kv.7.3 channels has long been considered an attractive target in the search for novel antiseizure medications. Ezogabine (retigabine), the first Kv7.2/3 activator introduced in 2011 for the treatment of focal seizures, was withdrawn from the market in 2017 due to declining use after discovery of its association with pigmentation changes in the retina, skin, and mucosae. A novel formulation of ezogabine for pediatric use (XEN496) has been recently investigated in children with KCNQ2-related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, but the trial was terminated prematurely for reasons unrelated to safety. Among novel Kv7.2/3 openers in clinical development, azetukalner has shown dose-dependent efficacy against drug-resistant focal seizures with a good tolerability profile and no evidence of pigmentation-related adverse effects in early clinical studies, and it is now under investigation in phase III trials for the treatment of focal seizures, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and major depressive disorder. Another Kv7.2/3 activator, BHV-7000, has completed phase I studies in healthy subjects, with excellent tolerability at plasma drug concentrations that exceed the median effective concentrations in a preclinical model of anticonvulsant activity, but no efficacy data in patients with epilepsy are available to date. Among other Kv7.2/3 activators in clinical development as potential antiseizure medications, pynegabine and CB-003 have completed phase I safety and pharmacokinetic studies, but results have not been yet reported. Overall, interest in targeting Kv7 channels for the treatment of epilepsy and for other indications remains strong. Future breakthroughs in this area could come from exploitation of mechanistic differences in the action of Kv7 activators, and from the development of molecules that combine Kv7 activation with other mechanisms of action.</p>","PeriodicalId":10508,"journal":{"name":"CNS drugs","volume":" ","pages":"263-288"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11850491/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143032514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although it is not clear whether ongoing viral replication is the driver for MS pathology, MS researchers have considered the prospect of using drugs with potential efficacy against EBV in the treatment of MS. We have undertaken scientific and lived experience expert panel reviews to shortlist existing licensed therapies that could be used in later-stage clinical trials in MS.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A list of therapies with anti-EBV effects was developed from existing reviews. A detailed review of pre-clinical and clinical data was undertaken to assess these candidates for potential usefulness and possible harm in MS. A 'drug-CV' and a plain language version focusing on tolerability aspects was created for each candidate. We used validated criteria to score each candidate with an international scientific panel and people living with MS.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A preliminary list of 11 drug candidates was generated. Following review by the scientific and lived experience expert panels, six yielded the same highest score. A further review by the expert panel shortlisted four drugs (famciclovir, tenofovir alafenamide, maribavir and spironolactone) deemed to have the best balance of efficacy, safety and tolerability for use in MS.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Scientific and lived experience expert panel review of anti-EBV therapies selected four candidates with evidence for efficacy against EBV and acceptable safety and tolerability for potential use in phase III clinical trials for MS.</p>","PeriodicalId":10508,"journal":{"name":"CNS drugs","volume":" ","pages":"305-320"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142945885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
