Palliative surgery versus more seizure medicines for Lennox-Gastaut
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial compares two treatment approaches for children with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome: palliative (comfort-focused) surgery versus adding more anti-seizure medicines. It aims to see which option works better for seizure control and day-to-day well-being.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or your child) must have a diagnosis of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome
- You must be cared for at one of the trial’s listed pediatric centers (7+ and 11+ centers)
- Your medical records from that center will be used to check eligibility
- If you do not have Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, you cannot join

This trial tests a way of slowly increasing the dose of a CBD medicine (called Epidiolex) in adults with a severe type of epilepsy called Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). The goal is to find the best, most comfortable dose that helps reduce seizures.
This Phase 3 trial studies whether clemizole helps reduce seizures in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) and checks safety. If you have LGS and meet the seizure and heart-safety requirements, this could be an option to explore.
This Phase 3 study tests whether carisbamate can reduce drop seizures in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). It also checks whether the treatment is safe when added to existing seizure medicines.
This study tracks how brain wave patterns change when children and young adults with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (a severe seizure disorder) take fenfluramine, a medication that helps reduce drop seizures. Researchers will use EEG (brain wave recordings) to understand how this treatment affects the brain.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation (adaptive deep brain stimulation) that adjusts in real time to stop seizures in children with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. It's for children who haven't gotten enough help from medications and have frequent drop seizures.
This study tests a brain implant that delivers electrical stimulation during sleep to reduce seizures in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. It aims to improve seizure control and sleep quality.
