Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female, > 1 day to ≤ 5 years of age at the time of informed consent.
  • Diagnosed with seizure disorder
  • Presence of a STXBP1 gene mutation. Historical documentation is sufficient to support eligibility for the study. Confirmatory testing will be obtained at baseline and performed by a CLIA certified laboratory
  • Written informed consent provided by a parent or legal guardian

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of prior gene therapy treatment
  • Current enrollment in an interventional study or has received an investigational drug within 30 days or fewer than 5 half-lives prior to screening visit, whichever is longer
  • Treatment with any antisense oligonucleotide therapy within 6 months prior to screening and anticipate remaining on treatment throughout the study
  • The presence of a confirmed mutation in a gene other than STXPB1 that is known to contribute to a neurodevelopmental disability
  • Presence of a significant non-STXBP1 related central nervous impairment/behavioral disturbance that would confound the scientific rigor or interpretation of results of the study
  • History of prematurity (defined as gestational age \<35 weeks), interventricular hemorrhage, structural brain deficit or congenital heart disease
  • Requires mechanical ventilation or non-invasive respiratory support such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) at the time of informed consent

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in neurodevelopmental parameters of adaptive behavior function over time utilizing the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-II (VABS-II) Age-equivalent Scores

    The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition (Survey Interview Form) is a measure of adaptive behavior in children, adolescents and adults. It yields an overall standard score (Adaptive Behavior Composite, ABC) and age standard scores in four domains. ABC scores have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 (range = 20 to 160). Higher scores suggest a higher level of adaptive functioning.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  2. Changes in neurodevelopment parameters over time utilizing an age appropriate assessment.

    The determination of whether a patient received Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III (BSID-III) is based on an algorithm that includes the patient's calendar age and VABS-II age-equivalent score (See Outcome 1). The BSID-III is a series of measurements to assess the motor (fine and gross), language (receptive and expressive), and cognitive development of infants and toddlers and consists of a series of developmental play tasks. contains two scoring systems of composite scores and percentile ranks. The normal range for composite scores is between 40-160 with mean at 100 and 0-99 for the percentile ranks. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  3. Changes in neurodevelopment parameters over time utilizing an age appropriate assessment.

    The determination of whether a patient received Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children-II (KABC-II) is based on an algorithm that includes the patient's calendar age and VABS-II age-equivalent score (See Outcome 1). The KABC-II is an individually administered measure of processing and reasoning abilities. The scoring range is 69 and below through 131 or greater. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  4. Changes in seizure frequency over time

    Seizure diary

    Time frame: 2 Years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in communication ability over time

    Observer-Reported Communication Ability (ORCA) Outcome Measure. The ORCA measure produces a single score that is an estimate of an individual's overall level of communication ability. Higher ORCA scores reflect greater communication ability; the mastery of expressive, receptive, and pragmatic types of communication and higher vocabularies for verbal words and symbols on assistive devices. The ORCA T-score range is from 26.82 to 83.24.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  2. Changes in sleep behavior over time

    Patient sleep habits will be assessed using Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaires (CSHQ).

    Time frame: 2 Years

  3. Changes in electroencephalogram (EEG) recording over time

    Standard EEG, lasting approximately 1 hour, to assess the presence of epileptiform activity.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  4. Changes in motor function over time utilizing an age appropriate assessment.

    The Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) is aimed to be used for infants between 3 and 24 months of age and assess different aspects of neurological function: cranial nerve function, movements, reflexes and protective reactions and behavior, as well as some age-dependent items that reflect the development of gross and fine motor function. Each item is scored 0-3, higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Time frame: 2 Years

  5. Changes in motor function over time utilizing an age appropriate assessment.

    The Gross Motor Function Measure-88 is aimed to be used for children 5 months or older of age and assess changes in gross motor function over time. Each item is scored 0-3, higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Time frame: 2 Years

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 18, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
