Bobby, age 47,
diagnosed with LGS.
ONFI® (clobazam) is FIERCELY DEDICATED
to helping Bobby & Julian fight their seizures.
ONFI is indicated for the adjunctive treatment of
seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS)
in patients 2 years of age or older.
Julian, age 6,
diagnosed with LGS.
Important Safety Information
• ONFI causes somnolence and sedation. In clinical trials, somnolence or sedation was reported at all effective doses and was
dose-related. In general, somnolence and sedation begin within the first month of treatment and may diminish with continued
treatment. Prescribers should monitor patients for somnolence and sedation, particularly with concomitant use of other central
nervous system (CNS) depressants. Prescribers should caution patients against engaging in hazardous activities that require mental
alertness, such as operating dangerous machinery or motor vehicles, until the effect of ONFI is known.
• ONFI has a CNS depressant effect. Patients should be cautioned against the simultaneous use with other CNS depressant drugs
or alcohol, and cautioned that the effects of other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol may be potentiated.
• As with all antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), ONFI should be gradually withdrawn to minimize the risk of precipitating seizures, seizure
exacerbation, or status epilepticus. Withdrawal symptoms have been reported following abrupt discontinuation of ONFI; the risk
of withdrawal symptoms is greater with higher doses.
• Serious dermatological reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), have been
reported with ONFI in both children and adults during the post-marketing period. ONFI should be discontinued at the first sign
of rash, unless the rash is clearly not drug-related.
• Patients with a history of substance abuse should be under careful surveillance when receiving ONFI or other psychotropic agents
because of the predisposition of such patients to habituation and dependence. In clinical trials, cases of dependency were reported
following abrupt discontinuation of ONFI. The risk of dependence increases with increasing dose and duration of treatment.
• AEDs, including ONFI, increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in patients. Patients, their caregivers, and families should be
informed of the risk and advised to monitor and report any emergence or worsening of depression, suicidal thoughts or behavior, or
any unusual changes in mood or behavior, or thoughts of self-harm. If these symptoms occur, consider whether it may be related to
the AED or illness, because epilepsy itself can increase these risks.
• The most commonly observed adverse reactions reported in an LGS randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group
clinical trial who received clobazam as adjunctive therapy (≥10% in any treatment group and at least 5% greater than placebo,
respectively) were somnolence or sedation (32% vs. 15%), somnolence (25% vs. 12%), pyrexia (17% vs. 3%), lethargy (15% vs. 5%),
drooling (14% vs. 3%), aggression (14% vs. 5%), irritability (11% vs. 5%), ataxia (10% vs. 3%), and constipation (10% vs. 0%).

Brief Summary of Prescribing Information
(See package insert for full Prescribing Information or visit www.ONFI.com)
Rx Only
INDICATIONS AND USAGE – ONFI® (clobazam) is indicated for the adjunctive
treatment of seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) in patients
2 years of age or older.
CONTRAINDICATIONS – None [see Contraindications].
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS – Somnolence or Sedation: ONFI causes
somnolence and sedation. In clinical trials, somnolence or sedation was reported
at all effective doses and was dose-related. In general, somnolence and sedation
begin within the first month of treatment and may diminish with continued
treatment. Prescribers should monitor patients for somnolence and sedation,
particularly with concomitant use of other central nervous system depressants.
Prescribers should caution patients against engaging in hazardous activities
requiring mental alertness, such as operating dangerous machinery or motor
vehicles, until the effect of ONFI is known [see Warnings and Precautions].
Potentiation of Sedation from Concomitant Use with Central Nervous System
Depressants: Since ONFI has a central nervous system (CNS) depressant effect,
patients or their caregivers should be cautioned against simultaneous use with
other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol, and cautioned that the effects of other CNS
depressant drugs or alcohol may be potentiated [see Warnings and Precautions].
Withdrawal Symptoms: Abrupt discontinuation of ONFI should be avoided.
ONFI should be tapered by decreasing the dose every week by 5-10 mg/day
until discontinuation [see Dosage and Administration]. As with all antiepileptic
drugs, ONFI should be withdrawn gradually to minimize the risk of precipitating
seizures, seizure exacerbation, or status epilepticus. Withdrawal symptoms
have been reported following abrupt discontinuance of benzodiazepines. The
more severe withdrawal symptoms have usually been limited to patients who
received excessive doses over an extended period of time, followed by an
abrupt discontinuation. Generally milder withdrawal symptoms have been
reported following abrupt discontinuance of benzodiazepines taken continuously
at therapeutic doses for several months [see Warnings and Precautions].
Serious Dermatological Reactions: Serious skin reactions, including StevensJohnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), have been reported
with ONFI in both children and adults during the post-marketing period. Patients
should be closely monitored for signs or symptoms of SJS/TEN, especially during
the first 8 weeks of treatment initiation or when re-introducing therapy. ONFI should
be discontinued at the first sign of rash, unless the rash is clearly not drug-related.
If signs or symptoms suggest SJS/TEN, use of this drug should not be resumed
and alternative therapy should be considered [see Warnings and Precautions].
Physical and Psychological Dependence: Patients with a history of substance
abuse should be under careful surveillance when receiving ONFI or other
psychotropic agents because of the predisposition of such patients to habituation
and dependence [see Drug Abuse and Dependence]. Suicidal Behavior and
Ideation: Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), including ONFI, increase the risk of suicidal
thoughts or behavior in patients taking these drugs for any indication. Patients
treated with any AED for any indication should be monitored for the emergence
or worsening of depression, suicidal thoughts or behavior, and/or any unusual
changes in mood or behavior. The increased risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior
with AEDs was observed as early as one week after starting drug treatment with
AEDs and persisted for the duration of treatment assessed. Because most trials
included in the analysis did not extend beyond 24 weeks, the risk of suicidal
thoughts or behavior beyond 24 weeks could not be assessed. The risk of suicidal
thoughts or behavior was generally consistent among drugs in the data analyzed.
The finding of increased risk with AEDs of varying mechanisms of action and
across a range of indications suggests that the risk applies to all AEDs used for any
indication. The relative risk for suicidal thoughts or behavior was higher in clinical
trials for epilepsy than in clinical trials for psychiatric or other conditions, but the
absolute risk differences were similar for the epilepsy and psychiatric indications.
Anyone considering prescribing ONFI or any other AED must balance the risk of
suicidal thoughts or behavior with the risk of untreated illness. Should suicidal
thoughts and behavior emerge during treatment, the prescriber needs to consider
whether the emergence of these symptoms in any given patient may be related to
the illness being treated. Patients, their caregivers, and families should be informed
that AEDs increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior and should be advised
of the need to be alert for the emergence or worsening of the signs and symptoms of
depression, any unusual changes in mood or behavior, or the emergence of suicidal
thoughts, behavior, or thoughts about self-harm. Behaviors of concern should be
reported immediately to healthcare providers [see Warnings and Precautions].
ADVERSE REACTIONS – Because clinical trials are conducted under widely
varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a
drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug
2
and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. During its development
for the adjunctive treatment of seizures associated with LGS, ONFI was
administered to 333 healthy volunteers and 300 patients with a current
or prior diagnosis of LGS, including 197 patients treated for 12 months
or more. The conditions and duration of exposure varied greatly and
included single- and multiple-dose clinical pharmacology studies in healthy
volunteers and two double-blind studies in patients with LGS (Study 1 and 2)
[see Clinical Studies]. Only Study 1 included a placebo group, allowing comparison
of adverse reaction rates on ONFI at several doses to placebo. Adverse Reactions
Leading to Discontinuation in an LGS Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial (Study 1):
The adverse reactions associated with ONFI treatment discontinuation in ≥1%
of patients in decreasing order of frequency included lethargy, somnolence,
ataxia, aggression, fatigue, and insomnia. Most Common Adverse Reactions in
an LGS Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial (Study 1): Table 3 in the full Prescribing
Information lists the adverse reactions that occurred in ≥5% of ONFI treated
patients (at any dose), and at a rate greater than placebo treated patients, in the
randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group clinical study of
adjunctive AED therapy for 15 weeks (Study 1).

Post Marketing Experience: These reactions are reported voluntarily from
a population of uncertain size; therefore, it is not possible to estimate their
frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Adverse reactions
are categorized by system organ class. Blood Disorders: Anemia, eosinophilia,
leukopenia, thrombocytopenia; Eye Disorders: Diplopia, vision blurred;
Gastrointestinal Disorders: Abdominal distention; Investigations: Hepatic
enzyme increased; Musculoskeletal: Muscle spasms; Psychiatric Disorders:
Agitation, anxiety, apathy, confusional state, depression, delirium, delusion,
hallucination; Respiratory Disorders: Aspiration, respiratory depression;
Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders: Rash, Stevens-Johnson syndrome
(SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), urticaria.
DRUG INTERACTIONS – Effect of ONFI on Other Drugs: ONFI is a weak CYP3A4
inducer. As some hormonal contraceptives are metabolized by CYP3A4,
their effectiveness may be diminished when given with ONFI. Additional
non-hormonal forms of contraception are recommended when using ONFI
[see Clinical Pharmacology, Patient Counseling Information]. ONFI inhibits
CYP2D6. Dose adjustment of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6 may be necessary
[see Clinical Pharmacology]. Effect of Other Drugs on ONFI: Strong and moderate
inhibitors of CYP2C19 may result in increased exposure to N-desmethylclobazam,
the active metabolite of clobazam. This may increase the risk of dose-related
adverse reactions. Dosage adjustment of ONFI may be necessary when
coadministered with strong CYP2C19 inhibitors (e.g., fluconazole,
fluvoxamine, ticlopidine) or moderate CYP2C19 inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole)
[see Clinical Pharmacology]. CNS Depressants and Alcohol: Concomitant use of
ONFI with other CNS depressants may increase the risk of sedation and somnolence
[see Warnings and Precautions].
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS – Pregnancy - Pregnancy Registry: To provide
information regarding the effects of in utero exposure to ONFI, physicians are advised to
recommend that pregnant patients taking ONFI enroll in the North American Antiepileptic
Drug (NAAED) Pregnancy Registry. This can be done by calling the toll free number
1-888-233-2334, and must be done by patients themselves or their caregiver. Information
on the registry can also be found at the website http://www.aedpregnancyregistry.org/.
Pregnancy Category C: There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of ONFI
in pregnant women and no adequate developmental toxicity studies of clobazam in
animals. Although limited, the available animal data suggest developmental toxicity,
including an increased incidence of fetal abnormalities following oral administration
of clobazam to pregnant animals at doses similar to those used clinically. Data
for other benzodiazepines suggest the possibility of adverse effects in animals
and humans. Long-term effects on neurobehavioral and immunological function
have been reported in rodents following prenatal exposure to benzodiazepines.
Neonatal flaccidity, respiratory and feeding difficulties, hypothermia, and
withdrawal symptoms have been reported in infants born to mothers who
received benzodiazepines, including clobazam, late in pregnancy. Therefore, ONFI
should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential
risk to the fetus [see Use in Specific Populations]. Nursing Mothers: ONFI is
excreted in human milk. The effects of this exposure on infants are unknown
[see Use in Specific Populations]. Pediatric Use: The safety and effectiveness
in patients less than 2 years of age have not been established. In a study in
which clobazam (4, 36, or 120 mg/kg/day) was orally administered to rats
during the juvenile period of development (postnatal days 14 to 48), adverse
effects on growth (decreased bone density and bone length) and behavior
(altered motor activity and auditory startle response; learning deficit) were
observed at the high dose. The effect on bone density, but not on behavior,
was reversible when drug was discontinued. The no-effect level for juvenile
toxicity (36 mg/kg/day) was associated with plasma exposures (AUC) to
clobazam and its major active metabolite, N-desmethylclobazam, less than
those expected at therapeutic doses in pediatric patients. Geriatric Use:
Clinical studies of ONFI did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged
65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects.
However, elderly subjects appear to eliminate clobazam more slowly than younger
subjects based on population pharmacokinetic analysis. For these reasons, the
initial dose in elderly patients should be 5 mg/day. Patients should be titrated
initially to 10-20 mg/day. Patients may be titrated further to a maximum daily dose
of 40 mg if tolerated [see Dosage and Administration, Clinical Pharmacology].
CYP2C19 Poor Metabolizers: Concentrations of clobazam’s active metabolite,
N-desmethylclobazam, are higher in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers than in
extensive metabolizers. For this reason, the initial dose in patients known
to be CYP2C19 poor metabolizers should be 5 mg/day. Dose titration
should proceed slowly according to weight to 10-20 mg/day, and may be
titrated further to a maximum daily dose of 40 mg on day 21 based upon
clinical response [see Dosage and Administration, Clinical Pharmacology].
Renal Impairment: The pharmacokinetics of ONFI were evaluated in patients with
mild and moderate renal impairment. There were no significant differences
in systemic exposure (AUC and Cmax) between patients with mild or moderate
renal impairment and healthy subjects. No dose adjustment is required for
patients with mild and moderate renal impairment. There is essentially no
experience with ONFI in patients with severe renal impairment or ESRD.
It is not known if clobazam or its active metabolite, N-desmethylclobazam,
is dialyzable [see Dosage and Administration, Clinical Pharmacology].
Hepatic Impairment: ONFI is hepatically metabolized; however, there are limited
data to characterize the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of
ONFI. For this reason, the initial dose in patients with mild to moderate hepatic
impairment (Child-Pugh score 5-9) should be 5 mg/day. These patients should be
titrated according to weight to 10 to 20 mg/day, and may be titrated further to a
maximum daily dose of 40 mg on day 21 based upon clinical response. There is
inadequate information about metabolism of ONFI in patients with severe hepatic
impairment. Therefore no dosing recommendation in those patients can be given
[see Dosage and Administration, Clinical Pharmacology].
DRUG ABUSE AND DEPENDENCE – Controlled Substance: ONFI contains
clobazam which is a Schedule IV controlled substance. Abuse: ONFI can be
abused in a similar manner as other benzodiazepines, such as diazepam. The
pharmacological profile of ONFI is similar to that of other benzodiazepines
listed in Schedule IV of the Controlled Substance Act, particularly in its
potentiation of GABAergic transmission through its action on GABAA
receptors, which leads to sedation and somnolence. The World Health
Organization epidemiology database contains reports of drug abuse, misuse,
and overdoses associated with clobazam [see Drug Abuse and Dependence].
Dependence: In clinical trials, cases of dependency were reported following
abrupt discontinuation of ONFI. The risk of dependence is present even with use
of ONFI at the recommended dose range over periods of only a few weeks. The
risk of dependence increases with increasing dose and duration of treatment.
The risk of dependence is increased in patients with a history of alcohol or
drug abuse. Withdrawal: Abrupt discontinuation of ONFI causes withdrawal
symptoms. As with other benzodiazepines, ONFI should be withdrawn
gradually [see Dosage and Administration, Warnings and Precautions].
In ONFI clinical pharmacology trials in healthy volunteers, the most common
withdrawal symptoms after abrupt discontinuation were headache, tremor,
insomnia, anxiety, irritability, drug withdrawal syndrome, palpitations, and diarrhea
[see Warnings and Precautions]. Other withdrawal reactions to clobazam reported
in the literature include restlessness, panic attacks, profuse sweating, difficulty in
concentrating, nausea and dry retching, weight loss, blurred vision, photophobia,
and muscle pain and stiffness. In general, benzodiazepine withdrawal may cause
seizures, psychosis, and hallucinations [see Warnings and Precautions].
OVERDOSAGE – Signs and Symptoms of Overdosage: Overdose and
intoxication with benzodiazepines, including ONFI, may lead to CNS
depression, associated with drowsiness, confusion and lethargy, possibly
progressing to ataxia, respiratory depression, hypotension, and, rarely,
coma or death. The risk of a fatal outcome is increased in cases of combined
poisoning with other CNS depressants, including alcohol [see Overdosage].
Management of Overdosage: The management of ONFI overdose may include
gastric lavage and/or administration of activated charcoal, intravenous fluid
replenishment, early control of airway and general supportive measures, in addition
to monitoring level of consciousness and vital signs. Hypotension can be treated
by replenishment with plasma substitutes and, if necessary, with sympathomimetic
agents. The efficacy of supplementary administration of physostigmine
(a cholinergic agent) or of flumazenil (a benzodiazepine antagonist) in ONFI overdose
has not been assessed. The administration of flumazenil in cases of benzodiazepine
overdose can lead to withdrawal and adverse reactions. Its use in patients with
epilepsy is typically not recommended [see Management of Overdosage].

28th Annual Advances in the Management of
Epilepsy and the Epilepsy Clinic
Sheraton – Metropolitan Ballroom A, Level 3
This intensive, one-day conference is designed for those professionals who
participate in the care of persons with epilepsy. The overall purpose is to improve
services to individuals and families affected by epilepsy. The conference is
presented by the Department of Neurology of Wake Forest University School of
Medicine, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, through an unrestricted grant
committed to the education of health professionals, in an effort to promote the
comprehensive care of those with epilepsy and their families.
Registration for this program is done separately from the AES Annual Meeting
and begins on September 1, 2014. You may register by calling Wake Forest
School of Medicine at 800.642.0500.
Convention Center – Room 620, Level 6
Activation of inflammatory mechanisms that include recruitment of reactive
microglia and associated signaling molecules such as cytokines and
complement cascade activation, among others, are often seen in surgical
resections from individuals with epilepsy and have been widely described
before, during, and after seizures in experimental models. The goal of this
session is to discuss potential mechanisms by which inflammatory mediators
may contribute to pathological epileptogenic changes in the brain.
Neuroimaging: MRI Normalcy – A Moving Target!
Convention Center – Room 607, Level 6
Coordinators: Matthias J. Koepp, M.D., Ph.D., Neda Bernasconi, M.D., Ph.D.
Speakers: Boris Bernhardt, M.D., R. Edward Hogan, M.D., William D. Gaillard, M.D.
About 30% of patients with electrographic evidence of temporal lobe epilepsy
(TLE) have normal MRI scans. The location of the seizure focus is unclear in this
patient population. Possibilities include (i) a subtle form of hippocampal sclerosis
that is not apparent on MRI; (ii) alterations in synaptic or receptor physiology not
visible on MRI; or (iii) pathology not detected by MRI, such as certain forms of
cortical dysplasia. Patients with MRI-“negative” TLE may be candidates for
additional neuroimaging techniques including advanced MR imaging with novel
acquisition or post-processing techniques, MRS, PET, and SPECT. Peri-ictal
imaging may increase the yield to detect abnormalities. This SIG will focus on the
management of MRI-normal TLE, emphasizing the neuroimaging perspective.
Up to 5.0 AMA Category 1 CME credit will be given.

Professional Development in AES: A Program
for Junior Members and Those in Transition
Convention Center – Room 603, Level 6
The American Epilepsy Society invites all interested meeting attendees to come
to a special session on volunteer and leadership opportunities within the Society.
AES has a variety of programs year round to improve the care and treatment of
patients with epilepsy. These efforts include education for basic scientists and
clinicians, research grant programs, leadership and organizational activities,
community outreach and advocacy. Greater participation in the Society offers
members extensive career development opportunities by providing a chance to
hone leadership skills, to network with other AES members and outside funding
organizations, and most importantly, to make significant contributions to improve
the lives of patients with epilepsy.
FRIDAY
Nurse Practitioners may claim 1.5 hours of pharmacology for this session.
This session will be useful to trainees, basic scientists, clinicians and other allied
health professionals (nurses, psychologists, Pharm.D.s) who want to know more
about AES organizational structure or who want to become more involved. The
session will provide an overview of the professional development and volunteering
opportunities within the Society, followed by short presentations by members
active in AES leadership. The session will end with a chance to meet with AES
staff and committee leaders to learn more about available opportunities.
Convention Center – Room 617, Level 6
This year’s SIG will focus on current efforts to improve the quality, safety, and value
of care provided in epilepsy monitoring units. Reduction in 30-day readmission
rates is an ongoing focus of quality improvement efforts for all hospitalized patients,
and influences payments to hospitals from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services. Dr. Gabriel Martz, from the Medical University of South Carolina will
present his research into EMU readmissions. Continuing prior discussions on ways
to improve the patient experience in the EMU, Dr. Nathalie Jetté and colleague
Dr. Khara Sauro will discuss their unique experience with a multidisciplinary EMU
Quality Improvement Team at the University of Calgary. Finally, Janice Walbert,
Executive Director of ABRET, will describe their challenges / successes to date in
developing and implementing certification of EEG laboratories. Time will be
available for audience questions and discussion.

Speakers: Ivan Osorio, M.D., W. Curt LaFrance, Jr., M.D., M.P.H.,
Janelle Wagner, Ph.D.
Cognitive–behavioral therapy, mind–body approaches, and multimodal
educational interventions have consistently demonstrated positive effects
on patient well-being. Nevertheless, the evidence for their effects on seizure
control remains inconsistent, which is partly attributable to the
methodological difficulties inherent in rigorously testing these interventions.
In the first part of this SIG, Dr. Osorio will present observations from invasive
EEG monitoring that inform the hypothesis for a possible physiological
antiseizure mechanism of cognitive tasks. In the second part, we will review
case-based tools that may help SIG participants identify suitable candidates
for behavioral interventions, select appropriate interventions and monitor
intervention outcomes. A number of experienced therapists will demonstrate
how their therapeutic approaches would work in practice.

This SIG brings together individuals in a debate format with an interest in
anticonvulsants and optimizing their use. This year’s session will address the
decision to discontinue anticonvulsants post surgery; encouraging audience
participation. We will also discuss the practical challenges that can occur as
medication is being withdrawn, including adverse reactions and medication
interactions. Upon completion of the session, the participant should be able to
present reasonable options to their patients about making a decision about
medication discontinuation.
FRIDAY
limiting its utility in localization of epileptiform activity and seizures. Recent
advances in amplifier technology and electrode technology now allow recording
of 128-256 channels of EEG. EEG source imaging (ESI) is a model-based imaging
technique that determines the “inverse EEG solution,” or the generating source
of electrical potentials recorded on the scalp. Improved ESI software can now
build realistic head models based on individual patients’ MRIs, perform source
localization, and co-register results to imaging studies in less time and without
need for programming skills. These advances now put dense array EEG and ESI
tools in the hands of clinical electroencephalographers, but the clinical utility of
these techniques has not yet been fully explored. Speakers will debate the pros
and cons of dense array EEG in comparison to other techniques used for
epilepsy diagnosis and localization.

Convention Center – Room 603, Level 6
We will discuss how epilepsy care in the VA system is different from epilepsy
care outside of a Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC). Specifically, we
will discuss (1) how the VA medication formulary system works on a local
VAMC and national level and changes to the formulary for 2014 (2) technical
challenges to setting up a neurophysiology lab in a VAMC (3) the structure of
VA administration and how to request expansion of services for epilepsy care
at your VAMC and (4) an update on progress to develop the VA Epilepsy
Centers of Excellence (ECoEs) and what services they can provide non-ECoE
VAMCs. This SIG is designed to dovetail with a book, “VA Epilepsy Manual”
that is being prepared now (editor Aatif Husain, M.D.) and will be published a
few months before this SIG and will be handed out at this SIG meeting.
Our understanding of SUDEP is moving forward thanks to a broad range of
research including animal models, the search for clinical biomarkers, and
collaborative work with coroners, medical examiners and device developers.
This year, we will delve into hot topics with experts in the field. Speakers and
topics will be selected based on cutting-edge SUDEP-related research
presented at this AES meeting and at the recent Partners Against Mortality in
Epilepsy (PAME) conference. Ample time will be allowed for discussion with
audience members.

Coordinators: Marcelo E. Lancman, M.D., Pavel Klein, M.D.
Speakers: John S. Ebersole, M.D., David J. Anschel, M.D.,
Thomas H. Swanson, M.D.
We will discuss several topics related to the ability of private practice centers
to survive and thrive in the fast-changing healthcare environment. First, we
will discuss the dramatic changes underway in many communities of large
academic institutions and hospital chains buying out private practice
physicians and how this may impact private epilepsy centers in terms of
competition, referral patterns, hospital access, and hospital and insurance
contract negotiations. Second, we will discuss the impact of ACA on the
practice of epilepsy at private centers — the competing forces of decreased
utilizations (increased co-pays and physician access restriction vs. potential
increased coverage of previously uninsured patients with epilepsy); and the
flux/chaos (changes in insurance policies and insurance among insured
patients). Third, we will address the increased burden on time and resources
of both insurance and governmental requirements of medication and
procedure authorizations and denials, which have accelerated remarkably in
the last 12-24 months. Fourth, to end on a positive note, we will highlight
possibilities for how to compete in this changing environment, e.g. by offering
highly specialized services such as MEG by virtue of greater control over
resources, and of routine services at better access by virtue of flexibility and
responsiveness; and how in in both areas, super-specialized epilepsy care and
the routine epilepsy care private centers can have a competitive advantage
over large academic centers and hospital chains.

Convention Center – Room 615, Level 6
Coordinators: John J. Barry, M.D., Rochelle Caplan, M.D.
Speakers: Mary Wojnaroski, Ph.D., Michael Kerr, M.B.ChB., FRCPSYCH
Aggressive behaviors in individuals with epilepsy have been a controversial
topic. The association of aggression or violence with epilepsy has been
debated despite being reproduced in some animal models and may have
significant psychological and environmental consequences. The Psychiatric
SIG will focus on 1) Evidence-based diagnostic and treatment options for
aggressive behaviors in children and adolescents and 2) Aggression in adults
appearing in the post-ictal state, especially affiliated with comorbid psychosis
and finally 3) Aggression seen in individuals with developmental delay. The
format of the SIG will utilize cases for both children and adults as a nidus for
group discussion.

This symposium will address the role of electrophysiological biomarkers in
diagnosis, localization, and prediction of focal seizures and epilepsy. We
review the current state of the art of electrophysiological biomarkers in
epilepsy. Utilizing a large electrophysiology database (NIH-sponsored
International EEG Database) the concepts of data-sharing, large-scale
computation, and reproducible research will be introduced. Specific
applications using electrophysiological biomarkers to predict epilepsy
(epileptogenesis), predict seizures (ictogenesis), and map the epileptogenic
zone will be presented. Algorithms for detection and spatiotemporal mapping
of electrophysiological biomarkers from multiple research groups will be
presented. The performance of these algorithms will be rigorously evaluated
in an open competition applied to large-scale clinical and basic research
datasets: 1) Prediction of epilepsy in animal models, 2) Seizure forecasting in
dogs and humans, and 3) Localization of epileptogenic zone in humans. The
results of the competition between multiple international research groups will
be reviewed and awards presented for the best performance for predicting
epilepsy, predicting seizures, and mapping the epileptogenic zone.

Investigators’ Workshops
Location listed under each session
Overview
These workshops, conducted informally and designed to encourage
interaction, will address several important areas of rapidly-emerging
knowledge in clinical and basic research in epilepsy. The workshops are
intended to identify challenges in current research, propose methods to
overcome those challenges, and encourage areas for future investigation.
The Basic Science Investigator Workshops will highlight a number of research
areas that have been developing rapidly over the last year. Participants include
established and junior epilepsy investigators as well as researchers outside
the epilepsy community who have specialized expertise that may be applied
to epilepsy basic science. In addition, one of the workshops features
presentations by junior investigators in cutting-edge areas of research.
Most of the workshops will run as concurrent sessions on Sunday, with a
single workshop on Saturday afternoon on cannabis and epilepsy and another
Monday afternoon on stem cells.

Special Interest Group Meetings
Location listed under each session
Drug Resistant Epilepsy – Definition, Epidemiology,
Predictors, Using Big Data for Epidemiological Research
Convention Center – Room 617, Level 6
Coordinator: Nathalie Jetté, M.D., FRCPC
Speakers: Samuel Wiebe, M.D., Martin J. Brodie, M.D.,
Elaine C. Wirrell, M.D., Jakob Christensen, M.D., Ph.D.
This SIG will provide participants with an up to date review about drug-resistant
epilepsy. We will begin by reviewing the latest definition of drug resistant
epilepsy and consider the evidence behind it. We will review the epidemiology of
drug-resistant epilepsy and whether patterns are changing over time, discuss
risk factors for pharmaco-resistance in children with epilepsy and will examine
whether big data can be exploited to study drug-resistance in epilepsy.
Frontal Lobe Epilepsy: Semiology and Cognitive Aspects
Convention Center – Room 608, Level 6
Coordinators: Andrea Bernasconi, M.D., Fernando Cendes, M.D., Ph.D.
Speakers: Prof. Patrick Chauvel, Bruce Hermann, Ph.D.
Frontal lobe epilepsy is the second most common type of localization-related
epilepsy that undergoes surgical treatment, and probably the most challenging in
terms of medical and surgical management. The causes are diverse and often
undetected by current standards of neuroimaging investigation, and a large
proportion of patients need invasive EEG investigation. Despite advances in
technology, many patients with frontal lobe epilepsy cannot undergo surgery either
due to the seizure onset zone being close to or involving eloquent areas (motor and
language) or because there is a lack of clear localization of epileptogenic lesion /
seizure focus. We will discuss the pathophysiological aspects of the complex
seizure semiology and cognitive changes in frontal lobe epilepsy.
Coordinator: D. Samba Reddy, Ph.D., RPh
Speakers: Aristea S. Galanopoulou, M.D., Ph.D., Cynthia L. Harden, M.D.,
D. Samba Reddy, Ph.D., RPh, Asla Pitkanen, M.D., Ph.D.
Sex difference in seizure susceptibility is one of the long-standing issues of
epilepsy. Clinical evidence shows gender- and age-related expression of many
seizure syndromes. The incidence of epilepsy is generally higher in males than
in females. More women than men are diagnosed with idiopathic generalized
epilepsy, but localization-related symptomatic epilepsies are more frequent in
men, and cryptogenic localization-related epilepsies are more frequent in
women. Changes in seizure sensitivity are also evident at puberty, which is
associated with rigorous changes in reproductive hormones and behavioral
patterns. Overall, there is considerable evidence indicating that men exhibit
greater seizure susceptibility than females, while many females exhibit greater
fluctuations in susceptibility to seizures, including menstrual cycle-related
changes in seizure activity. Although sex differences in epileptogenesis are
widely recognized, there is little discussion on their mechanisms and
therapeutic implications. In this SIG, sex-based differences in seizure sensitivity
and epileptogenesis will be discussed, with emphasis on variations between
men and women in factors such as steroid hormones, gender-specific
developmental consequences, biologic differences in neuronal networks in the
brain and gender-based differential therapeutic interventions.
Pediatric Case Discussions
Convention Center – Room 612, Level 6
Coordinator: Elaine Wyllie, M.D.
Speakers: TBA
Six expert faculty will present impactful cases illustrating important clinical
points in diverse topics including pediatric epilepsy diagnosis, seizure
semiology, EEG, antiepileptic medications, surgery, genetics, comorbidities, and
other topics.
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) / Magnetic Source Imaging
(MSI) Source Localization Results: Blind Faith, Black Art, or
Scientific Method?
Psychogenic Nonepileptic Seizures: What Can We Learn from
PNES Semiology?
Convention Center – Room 620, Level 6
Coordinators: Markus Reuber, M.D., Ph.D., FRCP, Sigita Plioplys, M.D.
Speakers: Roderick Duncan, M.D., Ph.D., FRCP, Gaston C. Baslet, M.D.,
Julia Doss, Psy.D., LPN
Coordinators: Anto I. Bagic, M.D., Ph.D.
Speakers: Steven Stufflebeam, M.D., Ph.D., Richard C. Burgess, M.D., Ph.D.,
Michael Funke, M.D., Ph.D., John S. Ebersole, M.D.
Although MEG is an established tool for localizing normal and pathological fields,
and clinical MEG is a recognized diagnostic subspecialty, there is a need to
improve the understanding and thus usefulness of MEG source modeling results for
the practitioner to facilitate further growth of the field. To this end, it is essential to
review the concepts of source localization accuracy based not only on the
equivalent current dipole (ECD) but also on various extended models. Thus,
Dr. Stufflebeam will introduce distributed source localization methods; Dr. Burgess
will scrutinize the criteria for acceptance of a dipole fit; Dr. Funke will discuss the
methods for improving source localization yield and accuracy (spike averaging,
tSSS, region of interest sub-selection, etc.) and Dr. Ebersole will elucidate on the
concept of dipole-worthiness.
Neonatal Seizures: Should We Pursue Comparative
Effectiveness Studies for the Treatment of Neonatal
Seizures?
Convention Center – Room 609, Level 6
Coordinators: Renee A. Shellhaas, M.D., M.S., Courtney Wusthoff, M.D.
Speakers: Ronnie Guillet, Tracy A. Glauser, M.D.
There remains a paucity of evidence regarding optimal treatment for neonatal
seizures. While there are a few ongoing RCTs for specific agents in the
treatment of neonatal seizures, all have faced significant challenges. Some
have proposed the solution to this knowledge gap lies in comparative
effectiveness research, using the existing wide variation in clinical practice to
study impact on outcomes. Others argue that a well-designed and executed
RCT remains feasible and is preferable as the gold standard to provide an
evidence basis in this area. Following presentation of three relevant posters,
our speakers will debate the sides of this issue.

Neuroendocrinology: Sex Differences in Epileptogenesis
Convention Center – Room 613, Level 6
Convention Center – Room 615, Level 6
This SIG will focus on the visible and subjective symptomatology of PNES in
adults and children and explore whether different semiological features can tell
us anything about the etiology, course or optimal management of patients with
PNES. A wide range of subjective semiological features have been reported
during PNES, including sensory experiences from different modalities,
symptoms indicative of hyperarousal, distressing experiences and varying
degrees of preserved awareness. Similarly, the objectively observable
semiology of PNES has been studied extensively, and characteristic features
have been described. Some PNES experiences have been linked to antecedent
trauma and better or worse outcome. Other than this, little is known about how
PNES semiology might relate to etiology or mechanism, and whether some
elements of it might have implications for choice of therapy. Drs. Duncan and
Baslet will summarize published observations of PNES subjective and objective
semiology in adults, will discuss the implication of these observations and will
explore possibilities for future research. While PNES in children shares similar
semiological features to those in adults, there are few studies assessing
subjective experience and how this may inform treatment choice or treatment
outcome. Dr. Doss will discuss PNES semiology in the pediatric population.

Special Interest Group Meetings
Location listed under each session
Ketogenic Diet: Does the Ketogenic Diet Offer a “Cure” for
Epilepsy?
Convention Center – Room 613, Level 6
Coordinators: Susan Masino, Ph.D., Christina A. Bergqvist, M.D.
Speakers: Detlev Boison, Ph.D., Sudha Kessler, M.D., Renee A. Shellhaas, M.D.,
Timothy A. Simeone, Ph.D.
We have an arsenal of treatments for epilepsy, but do we have any cures?
More specifically, could the time-honored treatment of a ketogenic diet also
be an anti-epileptogenic treatment and offer insight into a cure? What proof
do we have that this is, or is not, the case?
This year the discussion will be organized into a pro/con debate of clinical
evidence and basic science evidence — with ample time for rebuttal and
audience participation. Our invited speakers are expected to take a side as we
explore this hot topic. We hope to have fun and inspire the community to
share their thoughts, suggest experiments and put forth provocative ideas to
help move the field forward.
Neuropsychology: Can We Spare Memory with Newer
Surgical Approaches for Temporal Lobe Epilepsy? Emergent
Outcome Data from Laser Ablation, Multiple Hippocampal
Transection, and Fornix DBS
Convention Center – Room 609, Level 6
Emergent neuropsychological outcome data will be presented on three novel
surgical techniques and will be critically evaluated and discussed with the
audience. The topic (neuropsychology, surgery, temporal lobe) and the
neuropsychologist-neurosurgeon paired presentations are expected to draw a
diverse multidisciplinary audience.
NINDS and Non-Profit Research Resources
Convention Center – Room 620, Level 6
Coordinators: Brandy Fureman, Ph.D., Randall Stewart, Ph.D.,
William Benzing, Ph.D., Steve Roberds, Ph.D., Ilene Miller, J.D., Seth Wohlberg
Speakers: Abigail Hemani, Scott C. Baraban, Ph.D.
The purpose of this SIG is to generate focused two-way discussion between
government and non-profit funders and basic and clinical researchers
attending the AES annual meeting. This discussion will educate researchers
on how government and non-profits set their priorities and fund research or
make other resources available, and it will educate non-profit leaders on what
else they could do to support basic and clinical researchers in the epilepsies.
The ultimate goal of this group is to accelerate research on the epilepsies by
more effectively making valuable resources available to the research
community.
Nursing
Convention Center – Room 612, Level 6
Coordinators: Frank W. Drislane, M.D., Howard Goodkin, M.D., Ph.D.
Speakers: Peter Kaplan, M.B.B.S., Lawrence J. Hirsch, M.D.,
Howard Goodkin, M.D., Ph.D.
Neurologists agree readily that generalized convulsive Status Epilepticus (SE)
is a neurologic emergency and that it should be halted immediately and the
patient kept from having recurrence of seizures. There is no consensus,
however, that all forms of SE (particularly nonconvulsive SE) need be treated
so aggressively. Even after interruption of convulsive SE, there is
disagreement on how long seizures need be suppressed, and on which EEG
abnormalities signify seizures that require re-treatment. Prolongation of
medically-induced coma with highly sedating drugs keeps patients at risk of
prolonged ICU stays and of new medical complications.
Dr. Peter Kaplan, who has written on the risks of overtreatment (including a
paper this year on worsened outcome for aggressively treated SE patients)
will make the case that much of current treatment is excessive.
Dr. Larry Hirsch, who has studied the treatment of ICU patients with refractory
SE, as well as the deleterious consequences of SE itself, will speak in favor of
vigorous seizure suppression. Finally, Dr. Howard Goodkin, with both a clinical
and basic science perspective, will discuss what evidence from basic and
clinical research can guide us in determining how aggressively to treat NCSE.

Status Epilepticus: Are We Over-Treating Status Epilepticus,
and Especially, Nonconvulsive Status Epilepticus?
Overview
The impact of stress on seizure control has long been recognized but the
neurobiology of stress impact on neurophysiology is not widely known.
Similarly, cannabinoids have been considered as potentially effective adjunctive
treatment for epilepsy as an alternative to traditional medications but here,
too, the neurobiology requires further elucidation. There is evidence of shared
mechanisms between stress impact on neurologic function and the
neurobiology of cannabinoids. These topics will be explored, providing
information necessary for improved management of patients with
pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Presentations on basic science related to stress

Lennox and Lombroso Lecture:
Priorities in Pediatric Epilepsy Research
Lecturer: Anne Berg, Ph.D.
The past several decades of clinical and epidemiological research have
provided a wealth of knowledge about the diversity within the pediatric
epilepsies and greatly clarified the sometimes reassuring but still too often
devastating prognosis of many of these disorders. The tremendous advances
in neuroimaging, molecular cell biology, and therapeutics hold the promise of
prevention, more effective targeted treatment, and even disease modification
for these epilepsies with the possibility of ameliorating what can otherwise be
moderate to severe lifelong disability. The challenge is to learn how -when
and in whom- to utilize these techniques and therapies in an optimal manner
to assure the best patient outcomes. Stakeholder identified and endorsed
priorities can help develop a series of research priorities for accomplishing
this goal.

FDA Town Hall Update: SUDEP and
Clinical Trials
(2.0 CME Credits)
Convention Center – Room 612, Level 6
Overview
In 2011, a meta-analysis published in Lancet Neurology suggested that patients
randomized into placebo-controlled add-on studies of antiepileptic drugs had a
higher likelihood of having SUDEP if they were randomized to the placebo arm
compared to addition of an active drug. This analysis was recently repeated by
the FDA using data requested from the companies performing the trials. This
symposium will discuss the following issues: 1) How do the findings impact the
design of add-on studies of antiepileptic drugs? 2) What do these findings mean
for clinical practice? The session will include a long interactive audience
discussion session, as specifically requested by the FDA, to provide community
input to the regulatory process.

Pediatric State of the Art Symposium:
Long-term Outcomes of Neonatal Seizures
(2.5 CME Credits)
Convention Center – Ballroom 6C, Level 6
Overview
Seizures occur in a significant number of neonates, yet many critical questions
remain regarding their diagnosis, treatment, and long-term prognosis. Modern
neurophysiological monitoring indicates that the scope of the neonatal seizure
problem may be more extensive than previously appreciated. Although
contemporary neuroprotective strategies have led to improved short-term
outcomes, the impact of both seizures and the medications used to treat
them are now being explored more rigorously in both animal models and
humans. There is a need for clinicians who treat infants, children,
adolescents, and even adults to become familiar with the long-term sequelae
of neonatal seizures. Importantly, these sequelae include not only seizures —
cognitive, neuropsychological and social outcomes are affected, as well. This
State of the Art Symposium will address the long-term outcomes of neonatal
seizures, with a focus on both epilepsy and non-epilepsy factors.

THE EPILEPSY RESEARCH BENCHMARKS
2014 NINDS Benchmarks for Epilepsy Research
Beginning in 2000, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) has hosted a series of Curing the
Epilepsies conferences in partnership with epilepsy advocacy and professional organizations to assess progress in epilepsy
research and help set an agenda for future years. As an outcome, these conferences have led to the development of
Benchmarks for Epilepsy Research, which reflect shared priorities across the epilepsy community. The current 2014
Benchmarks are:
I.
Understand the causes of the epilepsies and epilepsy-related neurologic, psychiatric, and somatic
conditions
A. Identify new genes and pathways associated with epilepsies and epilepsy-related conditions.
B. Identify new infectious, immune, age-related, environmental, or other causes and risk factors associated with the
epilepsies and epilepsy-related conditions.
C. Determine whether factors related to age, gender, race / ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and other features of
specific populations affect risk and mechanisms of epilepsy and epilepsy-related conditions.
D. Determine whether the bi-directional relationships that exist between the epilepsies and several co-occurring
conditions (e.g., neuropsychiatric or neurodevelopmental disorders) result from the same underlying causal
mechanisms, interacting mechanisms, or are a consequence of the first presenting condition.
II. Prevent epilepsy and its progression
A. Understand epileptogenic processes involved in epilepsies with neurodevelopmental origins, including those due to
genetic or presumed genetic causes.
B. Understand epileptogenic processes involved in the development of epilepsy following traumatic brain injury, stroke,
brain tumor, infections, neurodegeneration, or other insults to the brain.
C. Identify biomarkers that will aid in identifying, predicting, and monitoring epileptogenesis and disease progression,
including markers early after injury / insult that identify those people at risk for epilepsy.
D. Develop or refine models aligned with the etiologies of human epilepsies to enable improved understanding of
epileptogenesis and rigorous preclinical therapy development for epilepsy prevention or disease modification.
E. Identify new targets and develop interventions to prevent or modify epileptogenesis and the progression of epilepsy
and epilepsy-related conditions.
III. Improve treatment options for controlling seizures and epilepsy-related conditions without side effects
A. Understand the initiation, propagation, and termination of seizures at the network level in different forms of epilepsy.
B. Identify biomarkers for assessing or predicting treatment response, including markers that may identify specific
populations that are likely to have good outcomes or develop adverse responses.
C. Develop or refine models that are aligned with etiologies and clinical features of human epilepsies, especially
treatment resistant forms, to enable improved understanding of ictogenesis and preclinical development to improve
seizure control with fewer side effects. Establish the sensitivity and specificity of these models with regard to current
therapies.
D. Identify, develop, and improve interventions to detect, predict, prevent, or terminate seizures, including approaches
suitable for use in the home and other non-medical settings.
E. Identify, develop, and improve anti-seizure therapies that target (either alone, or in combination) novel or multiple
seizure mechanisms.
F. Develop, improve, and implement interventions for effective self-management, including treatment adherence.
G.Develop and validate objective patient-centered outcome metrics for clinical studies.
IV. Limit or prevent adverse consequences of seizures and their treatment across the lifespan
A. Understand and limit adverse impacts of seizures on quality of life, including effects on neurodevelopment, mental
health, intellectual abilities, and other neurological and non-neurological functions.
B. Understand and limit adverse impacts of anti-seizure treatments (medical, surgical, or other interventions) on quality
of life, including effects on neurodevelopment, mental health, intellectual abilities, and other neurological and
non-neurological functions.
C. Understand risk factors and mechanisms involved in non-epileptic seizures (NES). Develop effective approaches for
earlier and accurate diagnosis and treatment.
D. Identify causes, risk factors, and potential preventive strategies for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) and
other epilepsy-related mortality (for example, suicide) in people with epilepsy.
E. Identify the impact of pharmacological treatment of the epilepsies on fetal and neonatal development. Develop
strategies to control seizures in pregnancy without causing harm to either the mother or child.

The thalamus has been called “the gateway to the cortex.” Do seizures travel
through the gate, and if so, in which direction? The role of the thalamus in
seizures has been debated for decades. In this temporal lobe club session, we
will consider whether the thalamus is a player or bystander in epilepsy. Time
is set aside for a lively group discussion.
Tumor Induced Epilepsy – Meningiomas
Convention Center – Room 604, Level 6

The focus of the 2014 Tumor-Related Epilepsy SIG will be meningiomas.
Dr. Sandeep Mittal and Dr. Jeffrey Politsky will be present clinical data. There
will be a third presenter to discuss pathologic basis of meningioma-related
epilepsy. We will also invite members to submit cases in advance and will
reserve the final 20-30 minutes of the SIG for an open forum discussion.
Women’s Issues: Controversies in Caring for Women with
Epilepsy
Convention Center – Room 615, Level 6
Coordinators: Danielle Andrade, M.D., M.Sc., Mona Sazgar, M.D.

Caring for women with epilepsy poses significant challenges to healthcare
professionals. Despite a growing wealth of knowledge, many issues remain
controversial and we lack evidence-based guidelines and consensus for many
difficult management issues in this field. This SIG targets four major
controversial issues in counseling and caring for women with epilepsy and
intends to bring together expert opinion and best available evidence in
addressing these difficult areas.
1. Controversies about inheritance of epilepsy
2. Controversies about teratogenicity of new AEDs and prenatal counseling
3. Controversies regarding contraception and epilepsy
4. Controversies in hormonal and non-hormonal treatment of catamenial
epilepsy.
TUESDAY
Participation in epilepsy-related global health projects is exciting, productive
and important! Many people are still unaware of the possible avenues to
pursue global health. This SIG will focus on opportunities for international
collaborations, professorships and partnerships around the world, both in
person and via telemedicine. The speakers will discuss challenges across
different regions, successes and lessons learned. Areas to be highlighted as
examples include ILAE supported activities such as the PECA (Partnering
Epilepsy Centers in the Americas) program of the North American
Commission of the ILAE and visiting professorship programs in Africa, and the
ILAE/WFN supported epilepsy demonstration project in Haiti.
diagnosing and treating sleep comorbidities in epilepsy patients.
Approximately 15-40% of patients with refractory epilepsy have comorbid
sleep apnea, and treatment of sleep apnea in epilepsy patients may improve
seizure burden, in addition to improving alertness and well-being and
modifying future health risk. However, identification of sleep apnea remains
challenging, and most epilepsy centers have separate clinical infrastructures
for the evaluation of epilepsy and sleep disorders, despite obvious intuitive,
practical, and logistical advantages of employing sleep polygraphy techniques
directly in the epilepsy monitoring setting. This year’s Sleep and Epilepsy SIG
will feature three expert epileptologists addressing the timely issue of utilizing
polysomnography in the differential diagnosis of epilepsy and spells, and the
importance of identifying sleep apnea in epilepsy monitoring inpatients.

TUESDAY December 9, 2014
8:45 a.m. – 10:45 a.m.
Hot Topics Symposium: Epilepsy Updates
(2.0 CME Credits)
Convention Center – Ballroom 6C, Level 6
ABPN Core Competencies
The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology has reviewed the Hot Topics
Symposium and has approved this program as part of a comprehensive
lifelong learning program, which is mandated by the ABMS as a necessary
component of maintenance of certification.
Core Competency: Medical Knowledge
Overview
The Hot Topics symposium will present information about newly developed
approaches to epilepsy diagnosis and management. Faculty will discuss how
MRI can be used to facilitate understanding the pathophysiology of epilepsy
and interictal functional disturbances through study of the default mode
network. In addition, new MRI analyses evaluate disease progression with
important implications for both diagnosis and treatment. How generic drug
use impacts seizure control will be discussed, presenting data from a new
study. Lastly, a new less invasive surgical treatment for epilepsy, thermal
ablation, will be discussed. This potpourri of topics covers the most recent
advances in epilepsy, and should be valuable to both clinicians and basic
scientists.
Learning Objectives
u
Recognize when to use generic anticonvulsant drugs when appropriate,
based on the potential impact on treatment efficacy and tolerability and
assists patients in understanding the pros and cons of utilizing generic
medications
u
Utilizing current understanding of the pathophysiology of epilepsy,
including progression of disease, learner utilizes new diagnostic and
treatment approaches
u
Educate patients on how new diagnostic and treatment approaches can
be used to manage refractory epilepsy.
8:45 a.m. – 10:45 a.m.
Scientific Symposium: The Epidemiology,
Pathophysiology & Prevention of SUDEP
(2.0 CME Credits)
Convention Center – Ballroom 6E, Level 6
Overview
This symposium will review the basic and clinical science of Sudden
Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). Specific areas that will be addressed
include epidemiology, clinical risk factors, potential role of preventive strategies,
gaps in how physicians educate patients and families, current biomarkers of
SUDEP and the evidence for the role of devices in seizure detection and their
potential role in preventing SUDEP. In addition, two leading models used to
understand the mechanisms underlying SUDEP in animals and humans will be
discussed: the role of the serotonergic system and respiration and insights into
human SUDEP from a mouse model of Dravet syndrome.
Learning Objectives
u
Apply understanding of the clinical risk factors, epidemiology, educational
gaps, and basic mechanisms of SUDEP, to developing treatment plans
focused on potential role of preventive strategies
u
Counsel patients and families regarding utility of devices to detect
seizures
u
Counsel patients / families regarding clinical risk factors, epidemiology,
educational gaps, and potential role of preventive strategies underlying
SUDEP
u
Understand and advice practitioners and patients / families regarding
issues of medication adherence and therapeutic levels as prevention
strategy for SUDEP prevention
Assist patients / families to develop cognitive skills and strategies to
improve medication adherence that could be life saving for some patients.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Audience Response System
Press Room
Commercial Exhibits (page 82)
AES offers meeting information and assistance for journalists reporting on
epilepsy studies, educational presentations, and special reports at this
meeting. The AES on-site Press Room staff works with journalists to develop
stories, research facts and information, and connect with experts and
presenters. The on-site Press Room is also available to sponsors and
exhibitors for the display and distribution of relevant press releases and media
kits. For more information, contact Ellen Cupo at (203) 314-6545 and
ellen@bigvoicecomm.com, or Natalie Judd at (203) 605-9515 and
natalie@bigvoicecomm.com.
AES will be utilizing the Audience Response System (ARS) in several of the
symposia. Faculty will have ARS questions throughout their presentations with
multiple choice answers. To participate, you will use your cell phone to text
your reply. When a question appears in a presentation, simply text your
answer (a 5 or 6 digit code) to “22333.” Standard text rates will apply. The
ARS will allow for interactive audience participation as well as real time,
immediate feedback to enhance the learning environment and ensure that we
are meeting the learning objectives set forth by each symposium.
The Exhibit Hall is an integral part of the learning experience. Meeting
participants will have an ideal opportunity to learn about the latest in
pharmaceuticals, publications, scientific equipment, and technology relevant
to the fields of epilepsy and neurophysiology. Please check the AES website

aspect of drug development. Scientific Exhibits will be displayed on Sunday,
December 7 and Monday, December 8. An application to register for a
Scientific Exhibit was emailed to interested companies in June. Reservations
will be reviewed and accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until space
is sold out. Send inquiries of interest to JoLynn Amsden at
jamsden@aesnet.org.

generalized seizures in patients with epilepsy aged 12 years and older.
Important Safety Information
WARNING: SERIOUS PSYCHIATRIC AND BEHAVIORAL REACTIONS
• Serious or life-threatening psychiatric and behavioral adverse reactions including aggression, hostility, irritability, anger, and homicidal ideation and
threats have been reported in patients taking FYCOMPA
• These reactions occurred in patients with and without prior psychiatric history, prior aggressive behavior, or concomitant use of medications associated
with hostility and aggression
• Advise patients and caregivers to contact a healthcare provider immediately if any of these reactions or changes in mood, behavior, or personality
that are not typical for the patient are observed while taking FYCOMPA or after discontinuing FYCOMPA
• Closely monitor patients particularly during the titration period and at higher doses
• FYCOMPA should be reduced if these symptoms occur and should be discontinued immediately if symptoms are severe or are worsening
Serious Psychiatric and Behavioral Reactions Hostility- and aggression-related
adverse reactions occurred in 12% and 20% of clinical trial patients randomized to
receive FYCOMPA at doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day, respectively, compared to 6% of
patients in the placebo group. These effects were dose-related and generally appeared
within the first 6 weeks of treatment, although new events continued to be observed
through more than 37 weeks. These effects in FYCOMPA-treated patients led to
dose reduction, interruption, and discontinuation more frequently than placebotreated patients. The combination of alcohol and FYCOMPA significantly worsened mood
and increased anger. Patients taking FYCOMPA should avoid the use of alcohol.
Patients, their caregivers, and families should be informed that FYCOMPA may increase
the risk of psychiatric events. Patients should be monitored during treatment and for
at least one month after the last dose of FYCOMPA, and especially when taking higher
doses and during the initial few weeks of drug therapy (titration period) or at other times
of dose increases.
Suicidal Behavior and Ideation Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), including
FYCOMPA, increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in patients. Anyone
considering prescribing FYCOMPA or any other AED must balance the risk of suicidal
thoughts or behavior with the risk of untreated illness. Epilepsy and many other
illnesses for which AEDs are prescribed are themselves associated with morbidity
and mortality and an increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior. Patients, their
caregivers, and families should be informed of the risk and advised to monitor and
immediately report the emergence or worsening of depression, suicidal thoughts or
behavior, thoughts about self-harm, and/or any unusual changes in mood or behavior.
Should suicidal thoughts or behavior emerge during treatment, consider whether the
emergence of these symptoms in any given patient may be related to the illness
being treated.
Dizziness and Gait Disturbance FYCOMPA caused dose-related increases in
events related to dizziness and disturbance in gait or coordination. Dizziness and
vertigo were reported in 35% and 47% of patients randomized to receive FYCOMPA at
doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day, respectively, compared to 10% of placebo-treated
patients. Gait disturbance related events were reported in 12% and 16% of patients
randomized to receive FYCOMPA at doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day, respectively,
compared to 2% of placebo-treated patients. These adverse reactions occurred
mostly during the titration phase.
Somnolence and Fatigue FYCOMPA caused dose-dependent increases in somnolence
and fatigue-related events. Somnolence was reported in 16% and 18% of patients
randomized to receive FYCOMPA at doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day, respectively, compared
to 7% of placebo-treated patients. Fatigue-related events were reported in 12% and
15% of patients randomized to receive FYCOMPA at doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day,
respectively, compared to 5% of placebo-treated patients. In the controlled Phase 3
epilepsy clinical trials, these adverse reactions occurred mostly during the titration
phase. Patients should be advised against engaging in hazardous activities requiring
mental alertness, such as operating motor vehicles or dangerous machinery, until the
effect of FYCOMPA is known.
Falls Falls were reported in 5% and 10% of patients randomized to receive FYCOMPA at
doses of 8 mg and 12 mg/day, respectively, compared to 3% of placebo-treated patients.
Withdrawal of AEDs A gradual withdrawal is generally recommended with
antiepileptic drugs to minimize the potential of increased seizure frequency.
Most Common Adverse Reactions In clinical trials, the most frequently reported
dose-related adverse reactions in patients receiving FYCOMPA 8 mg or 12 mg vs
placebo (≥4% and at least 1% higher than the placebo group) included dizziness
(36% vs 9%), somnolence (16% vs 7%), fatigue (10% vs 5%), irritability (9% vs 3%),
falls (7% vs 3%), nausea (7% vs 5%), ataxia (5% vs 0%), balance disorder (4% vs 1%),
gait disturbance (4% vs 1%), vertigo (4% vs 1%), and weight gain (4% vs 1%).
Drug Interactions FYCOMPA may decrease the efficacy of contraceptives containing
levonorgestrel. Plasma levels of FYCOMPA were decreased when administered with
carbamazepine, phenytoin and oxcarbazepine. Concomitant use with strong CYP3A
inducers such as St. John’s wort and rifampin should be avoided. Multiple dosing of
FYCOMPA 12 mg/day enhanced the effects of alcohol on vigilance and alertness, and
increased levels of anger, confusion, and depression. These effects may also be seen
when FYCOMPA is used in combination with other CNS depressants.
Pregnancy Category C and Lactation FYCOMPA should be used during pregnancy
only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Physicians are
advised to recommend that pregnant patients taking FYCOMPA enroll in the North
American Antiepileptic Drug (NAAED) Pregnancy Registry. Caution should be
exercised when FYCOMPA is administered to a nursing woman.
Hepatic and Renal Impairment Use in patients with severe hepatic or severe
renal impairment is not recommended. Dosage adjustments are recommended in
patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment. Use with caution in patients
with moderate renal impairment.
Drug Abuse and Dependence FYCOMPA is a Schedule III controlled drug substance
and has the potential to be abused or lead to drug dependence.
