Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC)–Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (TAND) Outcomes Following Adjunctive Cannabidiol (CBD) Treatment: 6-Month Intermediate Analysis of the EpiCom Trial
(AES 2025)
- P4 | "A plant-derived, highly purified pharmaceutical formulation of cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex®) is approved for the treatment of seizures associated with TSC; anecdotal evidence also suggests some neuropsychiatric benefits... In this intermediate analysis, reductions were seen in the TAND-SQ and ABC subscale scores and in the severity of behavioral problems reported by caregivers and clinicians after 26 weeks of CBD initiation. The safety profile remains consistent with previous studies. These findings support the continued evaluation of effectiveness of CBD on nonseizure outcomes in patients with TSC."

Long-Term Use of Cannabidiol (Epidiolex) in Patients with Refractory Epilepsy - The UM Experience
(AES 2025)
- "The most frequently used prior ASM was clobazam (70%). Purified Pharmaceutical cannabidiol (CBD) provides modest seizure control in refractory epilepsy of multiple types. While adverse events were common, they led to discontinuation in only a quarter of patients. These real-world findings can provide valuable insights into its potential use in other epilepsy types beyond its current FDA-labeled indications."

Real-World Polypharmacy and Healthcare Resource Utilization After Early-Line Treatment With Cannabidiol for Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, Dravet Syndrome, and Tuberous Sclerosis Complex
(AES 2025)
- "Rationale: In phase 3 clinical trials leading to approval of plant-derived, highly purified cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex®, 100 mg/mL oral solution) for the treatment of seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), Dravet syndrome (DS), or tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), trial participants were taking a median of 3 antiseizure medications (ASMs) at baseline and had previously discontinued a median of 4–6 ASMs... In new CBD users with LGS, DS, or TSC, we observed decreases in polypharmacy and HCRU compared with their trends before starting CBD. In the early-line CBD subgroup, further reductions in outcomes, particularly polypharmacy burden and physician office visits, were observed. These results suggest CBD is effective across all lines of therapy, regardless of when initiated."

Cannabidiol Inhibits Phenytoin Clearance and Can Result in Clinical Changes
(AES 2025)
- "A CBD interaction has been well documented for patients taking clobazam (CLB) but not for PHT...On presentation, he was taking levetiracetam, clonazepam, and PHT (which mom reported minimized the frequency and severity of his tonic-clonic seizures)...Epidiolex (CBD) was initiated according to the standard titration... These two cases show CBD inhibition of PHT metabolism can lead to significant increases in levels and meaningful clinical changes (in one case sz control and in the other drug toxicity). In case 1, clinical benefit may also relate to the increase in CLB metabolite and direct effect of CBD. However, the recurrence of seizures on lowering the PHT dose and the resumption of improved control once PHT was restored suggests the elevated PHT was most significant."

Real-World Effectiveness of Cannabidiol on Antiseizure Medication Cycling, Polypharmacy, and Healthcare Resource Utilization: A US Claims Analysis
(AES 2025)
- "Rationale: Efficacy of cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex®, 100 mg/mL oral solution) for treatment of seizures associated with Dravet syndrome (DS), Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) has been established by randomized clinical trials... These real-world insights indicate overall reductions in ASM cycling, polypharmacy burden, and HCRU at 12 months post–CBD initiation in both pediatric and adult patients with DS, LGS, or TSC. An overall reduction in these parameters suggests that CBD may help reduce the clinical and economic burden of disease in both pediatric and adult patients living with these rare epilepsies."

Phase 1, Open-Label, Fixed-Sequence, Bidirectional, Pharmacokinetic Drug-Drug Interaction Study Between Cannabidiol and Cenobamate in Healthy Adult Participants
(AES 2025)
- "Rationale: A plant-derived highly purified pharmaceutical formulation of cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex®; 100 mg/mL oral solution) is approved for the treatment of seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, Dravet syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis complex. No PK effect of CBD on CNB or of CNB on CBD was observed when the two were administered concomitantly at clinically relevant dosages. Coadministration of CBD and CNB showed no evidence of increased AEs or worsening safety findings compared with either dosed alone. These PK DDI results support that coadministration of CNB with CBD does not warrant a reduction in the CBD dosage."

Effectiveness of Cannabidiol in Patients With Rare Epilepsies Compared to External Placebo Control: A Post Hoc Analysis From the Expanded Access Program
(AES 2025)
- "CBD effectiveness was compared with an external placebo control arm (ECA) from LGS RCTs. Patients received plant-derived, highly purified CBD (Epidiolex®, 100 mg/mL oral solution), increasing from 2 to 10 mg/kg/day as tolerated or a maximum of 25–50 mg/kg/day, based on EAP site...At baseline, mean age ranged from 5.0 to 14.4 years and most commonly used antiseizure medications (ASMs) were clobazam (40%) and levetiracetam (33%)... CBD treatment was associated with reductions in convulsive and total seizure frequency in patients with DEEs and rare epilepsies in a cohort that excluded patients with LGS, DS, and TSC. These findings suggest that CBD may be an effective ASM for a broad range of DEEs and other rare epilepsies and warrants further investigation."

An Observational Analysis of Social Media Content Pertaining to Use of Cannabidiol for Epilepsy
(AES 2025)
- "Search terms included epilepsy, cannabidiol, CBD, Epidiolex, Dravet syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis... The availability of cannabidiol as a drug for a small group of refractory epilepsies offers an attractive therapeutic option in these difficult cases. However, given the nature of the substance, it is prone to misinformation. Specifically, the implication that recreational marijuana may be used in the treatment of epilepsy is a dangerous presence on social media, with far-reaching consequences for epilepsy patients."

An Assessment of Acute Pharmacodynamic Drug-Drug Interactions Between Cannabidiol and Cenobamate in a Mouse Model of Generalized Tonic Seizures
(AES 2025)
- "Previously, we identified a synergistic antiseizure pharmacodynamic drug-drug interaction (PD-DDI) between cannabidiol (CBD) and clobazam using the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) model in mice.1 Cenobamate (CNB) has been shown to enhance the antiseizure activity of other ASMs using the DBA/2 mouse model.2 The current study investigates PD-DDIs for CBD and CNB in the mouse MES model. The MES model1 of acute generalized seizures was used in male C57BL/6J mice to evaluate antiseizure properties of CBD alone, CNB alone, and in combination. Mice were treated with either CNB (1–30 mg/kg intraperitoneally [IP]; 30 min) or plant-derived highly-purified CBD (Epidiolex® active pharmaceutical ingredient, 10–100 mg/kg IP; 60 min), before receiving a validated, fixed-current-intensity electrical stimulus via corneal stimulation (30 mA, 0.2 sec)... This study demonstrates a novel synergistic PD-DDI between CBD and CNB in the mouse MES model of acute generalized seizures and..."

Fintepla and Epidiolex: An Overview of Concomitant Use
(AES 2025)
- "Approximately 63% of patients in our population reported improved seizure frequency or reduced intensity of seizures on the combination of CBD and FFA. Only 20% of patients who remained on the combination reported side effects, while 100% who stopped either CBD or FFA described side effects during follow up visits. When reviewing efficacy and adverse effects, there were confounding factors including the addition of or dose changes of other anti seizure medications and the pursuit of surgical intervention (CC) or neuromodulation (namely DBS)."

Cenobamate in Generalized Epilepsies: Case Reports in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy and PCDH19-Related Epilepsy
(AES 2025)
- "We present two cases demonstrating significant clinical response to off-label cenobamate use in generalized epilepsy syndromes. Retrospective case series of two females with drug-resistant generalized epilepsy syndromes treated with off-label cenobamate. Case 1 (JME): A 22-year-old female with JME experienced absence, myoclonic, and generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCs) refractory to multiple ASMs, including valproate, lamotrigine, topiramate, and zonisamide...Trials of oxcarbazepine, zonisamide, and lacosamide failed; VNS and cannabidiol (Epidiolex) offered partial benefit... These cases highlight the promising role of cenobamate as an off-label adjunctive treatment in refractory generalized epilepsies. In both patients, cenobamate significantly reduced seizure frequency and allowed withdrawal or dose reduction of prior ASMs with unfavorable side-effect profiles. Given its favorable pharmacodynamic profile and real-world efficacy, further clinical trials are..."

A Population Health Study of Patients Prescribed Cannabidiol in the Epilepsy Learning Healthcare System (ELHS) Registry
(AES 2025)
- "In collaboration with Jazz Pharmaceuticals, ELHS conducted a retrospective analysis on a de-identified subset of patients with documented use of FDA-approved cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex®, 100 mg/mL oral solution) to evaluate real-world data-capture patterns and identify opportunities to enhance learning and optimization of health system infrastructure... This analysis with documented CBD use for ≥ 6 months highlights the potential of ELHS to inform real-world treatment patterns. With support for improved and consistent adoption, the structured CRFs used in ELHS can provide opportunities to perform studies on treatment outcomes at individual and population levels across clinical centers, as well as close gaps left by data collected for clinical trials and administrative claims analyses."

Cannabidiol as Adjunctive Treatment in Drug-Resistant Epilepsy With Epileptic Spasms Beyond Two Years of Age.
(PubMed, Pediatr Neurol)
- "CBD appears to be an effective and well-tolerated adjunctive treatment for drug-resistant ES in children older than 2 years. Significant response rates were found, particularly in patients with Down syndrome and malformations of cortical development. Future studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up are needed to validate these findings and explore the potential for earlier use of CBD in treatment-resistant epilepsy."
