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?

En el 2019 su hija Rosanna fue diagnosticada con SYNGAP1 a la temprana edad de 4 años, tras haber sido erróneamente diagnosticada con retraso global del desarrollo e hipomielinización. Merlina comparte con nosotros su proceso de aceptación de este diagnóstico, cómo la motivó a profundizar su comprensión de esta enfermedad y cómo se ha convertido en una líder en la comunidad hispana de SYNGAP1. Además de ser maestra de niños con necesidades especiales, Merlina es la presentadora del podcast Café Syngap1 del Fondo de Investigación Syngap. Nos cuenta sobre su trabajo en estos roles y su pasión por brindar apoyo, concientizar, educar a la población y unir esfuerzos para encontrar una cura para los pacientes que sufren de esta rara enfermedad.

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.

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. NORTRIPTYLINE Rx - Has helped me, a handful of families are getting a Rx. I am hopeful that some researcher does an investigator led trial. But until then, ask your Neuro. ACETYL-LEUCINE is a Nutraceutical - Update 1 has really been noticed and Update 2 will share a few potential mechanisms of action. Many are trying this drug from https://bit.ly/tanganil24 Encouraging… no, updating. Please share data with us if you are trying. We are collecting case studies for Update 3.

SYNGAP1 is complex, we need to partner with our clinicians to improve care & get ready for repurposing. #S10e131 Three patient stories… with the same conclusion, we don't know enough about this disease. - VNS, very few meds. If that is appealing, look for the VNS parents. www.facebook.com/groups/syngap1vns/ - Little lady on Kepra finally getting a new drug. - Big man getting really odd care, based on EEG These kids are so complicated and the system is just not ready.

We have a hit from Chow that we are validating. Rarebase validation is coming soon… The question is how and what to measure. The other question is cost, stay tuned here.

Show Notes: Nancy Kessler is an SRF BOD member, an active volunteer & advocate, and has hosted the SRF Gala honoring her sister Caren Leib for three years, including coming up on October 21, 2023. Caren is the oldest known person diagnosed with SYNGAP1. It is impossible to do justice to her 67 years on this planet, but luckily, Caren starred in her own movie, and Nancy has shared numerous other stories about her sister's life. We hope you enjoy this unique episode, then check out the links below to learn even more about this family that is so special to the SynGAP Research Fund community.

The military lifestyle's stress is hard enough on marriage, but what happens when you add a medical diagnosis? A child in need of extra care? In this episode, we explore Aaron and Monica Harding's story of finding help for their son, themselves, and their marriage. The Harding's son Jackson (17) was diagnosed with SynGAP in 2015, at age 10. Today, with children aged 24, 21 and 17, his wife, Monica, is now just learning how to take time away. And, according to Aaron, “that's only because we started family therapy ~2 years ago.” Children living with SynGAP live with symptoms that include: autism / intellectual disabilities / sleep issues / behavior issues / seizures (sometimes a hundred a day) / delayed fine motor and language skills. Today, there is no cure, only medications that treat individual symptoms. Each case is different and brings its own unique challenges. For families like the Sandersons and the Hardings, those challenges are even more acute as they navigate the complexities of military life. Sign up for my monthly newsletter here!
