    Tuesday, March 18, 2025 - Week 12 SYNGAP1 & Unmet Need Preface  Let's separate the notion of symptoms and disease description with lived caregiver and patient experience.  When you do this, charts about seizure progression and symptom list lose their sterile veneer and become horror stories.   This is critical because clinicians have become desensitized to patients' complaints and SYNGAP1 caregivers are tired of trying to explain to people how this disease hits you. SRD is slow moving, but suddenly changing and completely enervating. Medical: Existing treatments/polypharmacy is woefully inadequate & worsens as patients age:   Unrelenting intractable and worsening seizures cause side effects and require constant vigilance and partnership with Neuros Medication changes can cause issues such at rage Long-term side effects, e.g., bone health issues, from chronic medication use Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are rarely addressed despite complex prescriptions from multiple specialists (Neuro, Psych, Primary, supplements, etc.) Some go to challenging non-pharma options: Not to mention tube feeding, keto diet, and neuro surgical options like VNS/CC as well as hip surgery for severe gait. Behavioral & ID: Our kids have enough physical ability to make behavior very challenging: Pain and behavior compounded by being non-verbal as they grow   Violence against family—bites and scratches   Violence against self, just sheer frustration Elopement & no sense of danger as a constant stress/burden  ABA can be helpful if the team is high caliber but often fails due to staffing, rigidity, insurance or lack of skill. Family: Toll on caregivers & family is a heavy cost that is rarely counted:   Almost all of our kids have severely disrupted sleep and that is a form of torture for the whole family.  Exhaustion from the diagnostic journey, assessments, and caregiving. Marriages fall apart under the pressure. Nobody can care for our kids—no respite, no support, schools fail. Parents are afraid to die, fearing what will happen to their children. Siblings are the last to be noticed but first affected.   Emphasize: The patients are very complex, the system isn't working, families are in crisis, and they need real solutions.   Parents will travel:   We've had 100 patients go to CHOP from all over the USA, no cure here, just expertise. Example: the day I wrote this presentation I saw these 4 Facebook posts:  VHM at CHOP https://www.facebook.com/virginie.herradormcnamar/posts/pfbid02NbqkEsH84XtaoNc8qma5LsPEsC16NVGmzgq6fXRb3opP4rGJjP2WjGkMUGhbBTjpl B at CHCO https://www.facebook.com/beata.tarasiuk.56/posts/pfbid0YJ4AxBuxtzoeqHyHHtwP5tLR8jGgRjxzxkJ  CB at WCMC https://www.facebook.com/corey.baysden/posts/pfbid0c7RZtzm8hsB3k5mTGpmiXhaq7xzL9vLptfVn5FYZ8ZcFEuxqiYETHss7eUxpwo8Bl RR at UCSF https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid02JvfR1G33tAg9XRZVXMidstcZYcEjzrqFeutvepYoPVb1RbjTEF1QCJj4kbDdScKQl&id=100088305909698    Episode 166 of #Syngap10  #Advocate #PatientAdvocacy #UnmetNeed #SYNGAP1 #SynGAP #SynGAProMMiS

    Please give my video a watch and SAVE MEDICAID!   Do it as if your child's life depends on it. I want to emphasize the importance of the current moment regarding Medicaid, not to alarm you, but to underscore the urgency of the situation. This is a critical time for the well-being of our loved ones, and the need to act has never been more pressing.   For over 30 years, I've been advocating at the state legislature level and with congressional members, but the potential cuts to Medicaid we are facing now are unlike anything we've encountered before. We must work together to protect this vital resource. Your support could make a significant difference.   To reach out to your Congressional Member consider these two resources: - Epilepsy Foundation: https://www.epilepsy.com/advocacy/advocate  - ARC of US: https://p2a.co/lRPDZ5C  What Medicaid means to your family: https://action.thearc.org/3jLx90b

    Tuesday, October 22, 2024 First Principles Genetic disease means that gene broken since conception. Novel medicines are possible ways to fix the gene - Genetic Therapies (ASO &/or AAV), this is recent, before now, kids with these diseases were a “go home and love them” situation. These are delivered via spinal tap or directly to the brain in leading medical centers. First though, regulators must approve.   Our job Develop medicines or get industry to - This is happening see Pipeline Get regulators to approve trials Get medical centers up to speed on SYNGAP1-Related Disorders (SRD) What we are building on CHOP ENDD funded externally (see #S10e92) and replicating what was built for STXBP1, check last week's webinar https://curesyngap1.org/resources/webinars/93-endd-chop-2024-syngap1/ Rare-X platform for PRO collection Regulatory pathway being made clearer every day by Stoke (Dravet), Praxis (SCN2A), Ionis (many) all of whom are working on SYNGAP1 as well.   What we are asking for We need to raise at least $500k (3rd site), preferably $1.13M (ProMMiS) Make your largest gift ever to SRF Fundraise with friends and family ACES is now ProMMiS, who knew ACE meant Adverse Childhood Event, not us. Key slides: S1 Path to Treatment | 2024 (09.27.24) 1. Why Now?  Why is it time to go from bench to bedside (research to clinical)? At least 10 companies on our pipeline not to mention multiple small molecule efforts We have limited resources – so the focus has to transition, clinical funding first. CHOP Gift is 1 year down… 2. Why NHS?Understand SYNGAP1 better, go beyond Vlaskamp 2019 and Wiltrout 2024, see #S10e105  FYI at CHOP, as I shared in #S10e151, at year 1, we are at  – 86 (Visits) + 10 (new scheduled) + 19 (2nd) + 4 (3rd)  + 22 (follow up)  Learn what to measure in clinical trials for SRD, remember our seizures are challenging Ideally we develop a Synthetic Control Arm if we use GCP Why top shelf?  We need institutions the FDA will take seriously and our children are very complex requiring experienced clinicians.  3. Why Multidisciplinary. Neuro, Psych, Genetics, PT, ST, OT, GI, Sleep, ENT, Ortho. Beyond the sheer burden of getting our kids out and about for multiple appointments the coordination by a parent is almost impossible.   4. Why Multisite/3 sites?Replicable/scalable required by regulators Accessibility (not primary reason) Establish more locations where trials will be managed Laying a foundation for a national self-sustaining network 3 is the minimum, look at STARR or Angelman, both had/ve 4. 5. How and why so fast? Because we can.  Time is Brain. Following a well trodden path SMA, Rett, Angelman, Dravet, but we are moving FASTER. 6. Does the industry really care? We are next there are so so many behind us, eager to take the resources we have access to today. Market size (Per our Census 425 US/1500 global is tip of iceberg) Multiple players reassuring each other Relatively strong amount of scientific and clinical research Haploinsufficiency (like Dravet – STOKE) – so relatively easy 7. Expensive? No. Clinical Research is more expensive than basic scientific research. Leveraging CHOP and Rare-X, setting up required networks to prepare for clinical trials.  It's time. 8. Why Bother/Help? Now is the time for SYNGAP1, we miss it at our peril. Sure, once in these places we will still see our patients, but the study, the support and the focus may pass. Our kids don't die, regardless of patient age, what we are doing can change their future and that of their loved ones and caregivers. If not us, then who? It is a rare exception when a non-family member gives a gift, and it is always because a family member asked.  We must ask. 9. What can I do? Donate to, share, join our Coast2Coast Clinics Challenge – two SYNGAP1 Squads in West and East – it's critical $500k goal by end of 2024; more than $1M needed just for the SYNGAP1ProMMiS. So far, donations from $25 to $25,000 – each and every contribution matters. This requires our entire S1 network to solicit family, friends, work colleagues, companies, etc. to contribute. Many causes out there – why not ours?

    JOIN SRF LT on Thursday: Volunteer Info session with Leadership Team is this week:  https://syngap.fund/LT Thursday 5/23 at 5:30 Pacific.   MDBR is 3 weeks away! https://Syngap.Fund/Unite   $5k match https://x.com/phalliburton/status/1792288377049415835   It's all about therapies.  Precision Genetic and Repurposed.   Conferences are where we engage professional communities around SYNGAP1 & SRF.  - Last week I was at Milken Global.  All diseases are talking about biomarkers & endpoints. https://milkeninstitute.org/events/global-conference-2024/program  - This week I was at the #Ultragenyx Bootcamp with our CSO https://www.ultragenyx.com/video-this-bootcamp-helps-parents-advance-rare-disease-research/ So good to see Kathryn energized by this role.  - ASGCT was last week and that means announcements…  - Kathryn and I are off to BIO in June in San Diego.   Ionis for Angelman https://www.linkedin.com/posts/cureangelman_exciting-news-for-the-angelman-syndrome-community-activity-7196872264976322563-_rvX  Capsida for STX https://www.linkedin.com/posts/graglia_capsida-biotherapeutics-presents-new-preclinical-activity-7194004214635716608-M01Y  Encoded for STX https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stxbp1-foundation_encoded-therapeutics-provides-pipeline-updates-activity-7196942568859787265-leKO  Nasha at FOXG1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELKijSx0uwQ   Repurposed therapies are just as important.   Cost effective.  Globally available. They are here now.  We must act, the suffering is immense. They show us what is improvable and therefore inform clinical trial design. They are not compromising other trials.  And to even suggest that is unethical if it suggests people should hold off on helping patients.  How about we just diagnose more kids?  Or think harder about which kids go to which trials? Precision Genetic Therapies are going to be more effective than repurposed drugs, people will happily participate in trials.   Review of repurposed drugs: RAVICTI Rx- 10+ patients with Dr. Grinspan, not all but a few have had significant seizure reduction.  I remain worried about cost and look to STXBP1 and SLC6A1 for guidance here.

SYNGAP1 Syndrome - ICD-11  - https://twitter.com/cureSYNGAP1/status/1730629792137883800 (2024) My vote (today) is that we have a disease that is a DEE called SYNGAP1 Related Disorders (SRD). These monogenic disorders are anything but monolithic. Disease vs. Syndrome, read this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1480257/ (Cavalo, 2003) A syndrome is a recognizable complex of symptoms and physical findings which indicate a specific condition for which a direct cause is not necessarily understood...Once medical science identifies a causative agent or process with a fairly high degree of certainty, physicians may then refer to the process as a disease, not a syndrome. NDD vs DEE - We are a DEE “Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) encompass highly prevalent conditions such as autism and epilepsy, with cognitive disabilities alone affecting 1-3% of the global population. Developmental epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) are NDD characterized by epilepsy and delayed development or loss of developmental skills. Although the prevalence of DEEs remains to be determined, studies estimate that single-gene epilepsies occur in around 1 in 2100 births annually.” https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-12-neurodevelopmental-epilepsy-disorder-genetic.html Give all three of our podcasts 5 stars everywhere.   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/syngap1-podcasts-by-srf/id6464522917  This is a podcast subscribe! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/syngap10-weekly-10-minute-updates-on-syngap1/id1560389818  Episode 133 of #Syngap10 - Feb 13, 2024 #epilepsy #autism #intellectualdisability #id #anxiety #raredisease #epilepsyawareness #autismawareness #rarediseaseresearch #SynGAPResearchFund #CareAboutRare #PatientAdvocacy #GCchat #Neurology #GeneChat
