The documentation for early-infantile DEE is limited primarily due to its rarity and the recent identification of its genetic underpinnings. As this condition affects a small population, systematic clinical studies have been scarce, making it challenging to compile comprehensive clinical data. The ongoing characterization of this condition aims to improve understanding and treatment options.
To navigate early-infantile DEE, consider consulting a pediatric neurologist with expertise in epilepsy syndromes. Genetic counseling may also be beneficial given the known genetic components associated with this condition. You can find a genetic counselor through the National Society of Genetic Counselors at findageneticcounselor.com. Additionally, participating in clinical trials could provide access to cutting-edge research and potential treatments. Keep an eye on ClinicalTrials.gov for opportunities relevant to your situation.
Currently, there are 37 active clinical trials investigating various aspects of early-infantile DEE. While there are no orphan drugs designated for this condition, the trials may explore potential treatment options and interventions. For more information on these trials, you can visit ClinicalTrials.gov and search for early-infantile DEE.
