Neonatal Seizure Registry, GEnetics of Post-Neonatal Epilepsy
Recruiting
The NSR-GENE study is a longitudinal cohort study of approximately 300 parent-child trios from the Neonatal Seizure Registry and participating site outpatient clinics that aims to evaluate whether and how genes alter the risk of post-neonatal epilepsy among children with acute provoked neonatal seizures. The researchers aim to develop prediction rules to stratify neonates into low, medium, and high risk for post-neonatal epilepsy based on clinical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance...

ON/OFF Stimulation and Reward Motivation in Patients With Deep Brain Stimulators
Recruiting
We propose to study approach/avoidance behavior as measured by the Approach Avoidance task in 20 epilepsy patients undergoing implementation of depth electrodes for seizure monitoring in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit at MGH. We will also study the effects of VC/VS electrical stimulation on approach-avoidance conflict in 20 adult patients who have undergone DBS implantation for severe MDD and/or OCD. There are 100-200 patients in the world with DBS electrodes in the VC/VS, and our research team ca... Read More

Gene-STEPS: Shortening Time of Evaluation in Paediatric Epilepsy Services
Recruiting
Overall, this observational cohort study aims too: Implement rapid trio WGS for all children presenting to our health systems with epilepsy onset under 12 months of age. Utilize electronic healthcare records and research databases to unite phenotypic and genomic data and to create a "virtual" registry across all institutions that will promote ongoing discovery. Assess the impact of early genetic diagnosis on epilepsy, developmental, and health economic outcomes through formal longitudinal asses... Read More

EpiCare@Home Validation Study for Focal Onset Seizures
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to validate a wearable seizure monitoring device, EpiCare@Home, as an objective seizure monitoring tool for people with focal onset epileptic seizures. The device continuously records brain, cardiorespiratory, and physical activity data. The study aims to 1) collect benchmark data for seizure detection algorithm development and validation, and 2) evaluate the performance of the device in clinical and at home workflows. Participants will wear the device during... Read More

MR-Guided Focused Ultrasound in the Treatment of Focal Epilepsy (EP001)
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and initial effectiveness of Exablate thermal ablation of a focal epileptic target area in the brain of patients suffering from medication-refractory epilepsy, using the Exablate transcranial system to produce multiple sonications targeted in the focus of interest. The investigators will establish the feasibility and collect data to establish the basic safety of this type of treatment as the basis for later studies that will evalu... Read More

Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors: A Potential Novel Treatment for Epilepsy
Recruiting
About 30% of persons with epilepsy have seizures that do not respond to drugs. The ketogenic diet is an effective treatment option for them, but this high fat diet is strict and difficult to maintain. The properties of gliflozins, which often are used to treat type 2 diabetes, make them a potential replacement for the ketogenic diet. This pilot study will determine whether gliflozins induce ketosis and could be used to treat adults with epilepsy safely.
