Epilepsy – Landscape & Forecast – Disease Landscape & Forecast (Major Markets)
Epilepsy is a complex and heterogeneous neurological disorder that requires individualized management. While the market continues to rely heavily on longestablished generic antiseizure medications (AEDs), innovation is increasingly shifting toward therapies for refractory and genetically driven epilepsies. Latephase development is focused on targeted agents—such as relutrigine (Praxis), azetukalner (Xenon), carisbamate (SK Biopharmaceuticals), opakalim (Biohaven), and bexicaserin (Lundbeck)—aimed at addressing persistent gaps in difficulttotreat and orphan epilepsies. This report evaluates the market potential of these late-phase therapies, as well as potential diseasemodifying options, zorevunersen (Biogen/Stoke) and elsunersen (Praxis), gene therapies in Phase 3 development. Our forecast also considers rapidacting outpatient rescue therapies, including Staccato alprazolam. Collectively, these pipeline developments signal a transition from broad symptomatic seizure control toward more precise treatments that better meet the needs of patients with severe, refractory, or genetically defined epilepsy syndromes.
