Summary
ProbCluster trial aims at making the proof of concept of antiseizure efficacy of the old antigout PBN in SC, in which Panx1 involvement is relevant on SC pathophysiology and in which efficient therapies are still lacking. The trial will be performed on patients with focal epilepsy in presurgical evaluation undergoing video-EEG monitoring, a setting characterized by a high risk of SC and an efficient video-EEG monitoring of seizures, reducing the risk of erroneous report based on patient home assessment. PBN is a good candidate for a repurposing in epilepsy, due to its brain penetration allowing Panx1 in situ blockade and of its good security profile. The repurposing process allows a faster, safer and cheaper development.
