Felbamate as a therapeutic alternative to drug-resistant genetic generalized epilepsy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Introduction: The effect of felbamate (FBM) on genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) remains largely unknown. The utilization of FBM has been limited due to its potential risk of aplastic anemia and hepatic failure. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy and safety of FBM in the treatment of drug-resistant GGE.
Methods: We searched the databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Google Scholar, to identify cases of GGE treated with FBM. Data on outcomes and adverse events were extracted from these studies.
Results: The literature search yielded 9 studies with 166 cases in which FBM was used as an adjunct therapy to treat drug-resistant GGE. The pooled responder rate to FBM was 65% (95% confidence interval CI, 51-80). 17% (95% CI, 3-31) achieved seizure freedom. 81% (95% CI, 60-100) of patients with Epilepsy with myoclonic atonic seizures were responders. Adverse events were reported in 40% (95% CI, 26-54) of patients.
Conclusions: Patients with drug-resistant GGE achieved good responses to FBM. The high heterogeneity between studies calls for further research with large-scale, randomized controlled trials. Given the rare reports of idiosyncratic reactions of aplastic anemia and hepatic failure, intense laboratory monitoring and a slower titration schedule are recommended.
期刊介绍:
Neurological Sciences is intended to provide a medium for the communication of results and ideas in the field of neuroscience. The journal welcomes contributions in both the basic and clinical aspects of the neurosciences. The official language of the journal is English. Reports are published in the form of original articles, short communications, editorials, reviews and letters to the editor. Original articles present the results of experimental or clinical studies in the neurosciences, while short communications are succinct reports permitting the rapid publication of novel results. Original contributions may be submitted for the special sections History of Neurology, Health Care and Neurological Digressions - a forum for cultural topics related to the neurosciences. The journal also publishes correspondence book reviews, meeting reports and announcements.
