ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at different types of epileptic syndromes in infants and young children, specifically those diagnosed with these conditions. The goal is to better understand how these syndromes vary and what causes them. If you have a child between the ages of 1 and 36 months who has been diagnosed with an epilepsy syndrome, they might be eligible to participate in this trial. However, children under 1 month or over 3 years old, or those with conditions that mimic epilepsy, will not be included.

If your child participates, they will be part of a study that aims to gather important information about their specific condition. The trial is currently recruiting participants, and all genders are welcome. This study could help improve our understanding of epileptic syndromes in young children, which may lead to better treatments in the future. If you think your child might qualify, it could be a great opportunity to contribute to important research in this area.
