E. General Information on the Trial
E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
In glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1DS) cerebral glucose uptake from the systemic blood circulation is limited, because of deficient transport of glucose across the blood-brain barrier by the transporter protein (GLUT1). Classically patients present with developmental problems, movement disorders and severe epilepsy. There is no curative treatment for GLUT1DS, and anti-epileptic drugs usually have little to no effect.
E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
GLUT1DS is a genetic syndrome characterized by developmental problems, movement disorders and severe epilepsy.
E.1.1.2Therapeutic area Diseases [C] - Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases [C18]
MedDRA Classification
E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
The purpose of this explorative study is to investigate whether treatment with lactate has a positive effect on the drug-resistant epilepsy and EEG of patients with GLUT1DS.
The primary objective is to assess changes in EEG during and shortly after infusion of lacate.
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
To assess any changes in seizure frequency during and shortly after infusion of lactate.
To assess any change in laboratory parameters during infusion and shortly after: lactate, pH, sodium, bicarbonate, chloride, potassium, glucose
E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
E.3Principal inclusion criteria
In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a subject must meet all of the following criteria:
- Diagnosed with GLUT1DS and known in our center.
- Baseline characteristics include a high frequency of clinical seizures and epileptic discharges on EEG.
- History of trying ketogenic diet with good compliance but without beneficial effects.
- Age > 6 years.
- Informed consent.
E.4Principal exclusion criteria
A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study:
- Additional medical condition or illness that impairs the patient’s ability to participate in the study (for example actual treatment of a malignancy, active infection, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, hypertension, organ failure, clinically significant haematological or biochemical abnormalities).
- Elevated serum sodium (> 145 mmol/L).
- Participation in another interventional study at start of the study or during the study.
- Presence of known panic disorders or a history of panic attacks.
E.5 End points
E.5.1Primary end point(s)
Change in frequency or form of epileptic discharges on EEG during of shortly after infusion of sodiumlactate.
The change in EEG will be measured by a neurologist experienced in reading EEG’s
E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
EEG will be continuously registered during the experiment.
E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
Seizure frequency: Subjects will be recorded on video camera and seizures will be monitored and counted by researchers and parents/caregivers.
Laboratory measures: All measurements will be performed in blood samples, and all samples will be analysed in laboratories of the Radboudumc.
- lactate concentration
- pH
- glucose
- sodium
- potassium
- chloride
- bicarbonate
E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
Seizure frequency: Subjects will be monitored continuously during the experiment.
Laboratory measures: T-60, T10, T20, T40, T60, T100, T120, T140, T200 and T240 minutes. Blood samples will be stopped earlier if all values have returned to baseline before the end of the experiment.
