Current management relies primarily on widely used therapies such as Keppra (levetiracetam), Lamictal (lamotrigine), and Vimpat (lacosamide), which form the backbone of treatment across lines of therapy. Despite multiple available options, achieving consistent seizure control with an acceptable safety profile remains challenging. The extensive availability of generics has further contributed to a crowded and competitive landscape, with limited differentiation among existing therapies. Consequently, there is a significant unmet need for treatment approaches that deliver improved effectiveness, enhanced safety, and more individualized management.
