GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome overview

Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe form of epilepsy that starts in early childhood, usually before the age of 4 years. It is characterized by multiple and concurrent seizure types, cognitive dysfunction, and abnormal brain electric activity. The seizures are frequent, occurring daily, and difficult to treat with anti-seizure medications. The most common seizure type is tonic seizure, which causes sudden stiffening of the body and often leads to falls and injuries. LGS can be caused by various conditions that affect the brain, such as brain malformations, infections, head trauma, or genetic disorders. However, in about 30% of cases, no cause can be found. LGS has a poor prognosis and often persists into adulthood. Treatment options include a combination of seizure medications, dietary therapy, vagus nerve stimulation, and epilepsy surgery. The goal of treatment is to improve seizure control and quality of life for people with LGS.
