In 60% of these patients, the origin of seizures is due to a localized (focal) alteration of the brain. In about 25 percent of patients with focal epilepsy, drug treatment is ineffective, a condition defined by the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) as drug-resistant epilepsy ; this condition results in a drastic reduction in quality of life associated with psychosocial dysfunction and an increased risk of sudden death. A possible treatment alternative for drug-resistant patients is ablation of the epileptogenic zone through surgical methods that are effective and safe when patients are carefully selected. The percentage of patients with epilepsy who are completely cured after surgery is about 70% for temporal lobe epilepsies, and can be as high as 90% in the case of some brain malformations.\n\nPre-surgical screening and therapeutic intervention (particularly surgery) have health care costs that are amortized over 2-6 years depending on the procedures required before surgery. In the last decade, moreover, the refinement of noninvasive\u002Fmini-invasive methods such as radiosurgery, Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) and laser interstitial thermal therapy (LiTT) have allowed us to hypothesize a possible specific treatment of drug-resistant patients with epileptogenic areas that are difficult to reach with traditional surgery and patients with complex comorbidities for whom the risks of standard resective surgery would outweigh the possible benefits. Finally, there is a subgroup of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who cannot undergo ablative surgery. In these patients, seizures originate from multiple areas of the brain (multifocal epilepsy) or the epileptogenic area affects functionally eloquent areas. In these cases, alternative functional treatments are proposed, which aim to decrease the frequency and intensity of seizures and the need for medication, such as: i) application of a vagal stimulator, a pulse generator that is implanted in the chest and connected to the vagus nerve, ii) implantation of deep brain stimulation devices, iii) neuromodulation. Therefore, careful selection of patients during the diagnostic\u002Fpre-surgical process is crucial. The multimodal assessments under study, proposed in support of clinical practice, aim to improve such selection by analyzing the causative factors of seizures, the location of the epileptogenic zone, and the clinical-epileptological course of patients who are candidates for surgical or functional treatment of epilepsies.",[60],"Epilepsy",[62,63],"Epilepsy surgery","drugs resistant focal epilepsy","2026-03-27",{"date":66,"type":39},"2026-04-01",{"date":68,"type":39},"2021-06-23",{"date":70,"type":21},"2041-03",{"name":45,"class":46},{"id":73,"slug":74,"hasResults":12,"nctId":75,"briefTitle":76,"officialTitle":76,"acronym":77,"eligibilityCriteria":78,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":79,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":4,"briefSummary":81,"conditions":82,"keywords":89,"overallStatus":35,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":99,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":100,"startDateStruct":102,"completionDateStruct":104,"leadSponsor":106,"locationsCount":107},"100581941","disease-biosignatures-in-alsftd-spectrum-new-impactful-biological-perspectives-beyond-clinical-approaches-100581941","NCT06856850","Disease Biosignatures in ALS\u002FFTD Spectrum: New Impactful Biological Perspectives Beyond Clinical Approaches","SPECTRALS","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Clinical criteria for ALS (Brooks et al., 2000; de Carvalho M., 2008), FTD (GornoTempini et al., 2011; Rascovsky et al., 2011)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* na",{"count":80,"type":21},230,"Diagnosis of ALS\u002FFTD disease spectrum is challenging because it largely relies on clinical symptoms.

Furthermore, the molecular characterization of rCVDs is still lacking, despite progresses achieved in common stroke by applying high throughput approaches as multi-omics. Since the diagnosis and care of rCVDs require adequate expertise and instrumental tools, clinical and research activities are usually reserved to few specialized centers, mostly located in the North of Italy, leading patients to expensive trips for consultations.

It investigates the intraoperative use of intravenous sodium fluorescein as a fluorescent tracer to assist in the surgical resection of suspected malignant tumors of the central nervous system (CNS). These tumors typically present as contrast-enhancing masses on pre-operative MRI or CT scans.\n\nMalignant brain tumors are notoriously difficult to fully resect due to challenges in distinguishing tumor margins from healthy tissue. Sodium fluorescein, a dye that accumulates in areas where the blood-brain barrier is disrupted, offers a promising solution by enhancing tumor visualization during surgery. When used with a dedicated surgical microscope equipped with a fluorescence filter, fluorescein can help surgeons identify and remove more tumor tissue, potentially improving patient outcomes.\n\nThe study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of fluorescein-guided surgery in a real-world clinical setting. Approximately 800 patients of any age and gender, with suspected aggressive CNS lesions, will be enrolled. Each patient will receive 5 mg\u002Fkg of sodium fluorescein intravenously at the induction of anesthesia. Surgery will be performed using fluorescence-guided techniques, and patients will undergo pre- and post-operative imaging to assess the extent of resection. Clinical and neurological evaluations will also be conducted to monitor outcomes and any adverse effects.\n\nThe primary objective is to qualitatively assess the intraoperative fluorescence characteristics of CNS tumors. Secondary objectives include measuring the extent of tumor resection, evaluating post-operative neurological function, and documenting any side effects related to fluorescein administration.\n\nThe study adheres to ethical standards, including informed consent and approval by an ethics committee, and will be conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice guidelines and the Declaration of Helsinki.
