Clinical Trial Summary

This preliminary pilot exploration aims at specifying the pharmacokinetic parameters of sulthiame, formulated as an immediate release tablet, thus helping to design proper clinical trials for the future assessment of new paediatric formulations currently under development. The clinical tolerability to single doses of sulthiame will also be closely monitored to orient future trials.


Clinical Trial Description

Sulthiame (or sultiame), marketed in the 60's in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Israel, Australia and Japan under the brand name Ospolot®, has progressively become the therapeutic first choice in benign focal epilepsies of childhood in these countries.

Its antiepileptic activity is thought to result from the inhibition of various subtypes of carbonic anhydrase (hCA), in particular cytosolic hCA II, thus inducing a degree of intracellular acidification sufficient to stabilize seizure-eliciting neurons. The pharmacokinetic profile of sulthiame was scarcely studied in humans.

Sulthiame is a suitable candidate for paediatric formulation optimization, as the current formulation (coated tablets of 50 or 200 mg) allows neither precise and adapted dosing, nor convenient administration to young children. ;
