Etiology and Treatment of Neonatal Seizure

Gene Profiling and Individualized Treatment of Neonatal Seizure in China

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Genetic diagnosis for neonates suffering from epilepsy has important implications for treatment, prognosis, and development of precision medicine strategies. Investigator performed exome sequencing (ES) or targeted sequencing on neonates with seizure onset within the first month of life. Investigator subgrouped our patients based on the onset age of seizure into neonatal and before 1 year (1-12 months), to compare the clinical and genetic features and treatment strategies.

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Patients were excluded if they had traumas, central nervous system infections, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, vascular events, systemic infections, and diagnosed metabolic disorders, and pathogenic copy-number variants were identified using array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH).

Who the study is looking for

  • severe seizures in neonates or generalized epilepsy or intractable epilepsy in infancy with generalized tonic-clonic seizures,
  • seizures onset before 1 year of age,
  • epileptic syndromes/epileptic-encephalopathies with unknown etiology.

Age in the registry: - to 12 months · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
