Emerging Treatment Strategies for Tuberous
Sclerosis Complex

Goals
  • Describe the manifestations of tuberous sclerosis
    complex (TSC) in various organ systems and the
    most frequent causes of neurologic, renal, and
    pulmonary morbidity and mortality
  • Review the molecular pathophysiology of TSC and
    how this forms the basis for novel therapeutic
    approaches
  • Compare the rationale and initial clinical trial
    evidence for emerging treatment approaches for
    TSC
  • Summarize ongoing clinical trials evaluating
    treatment approaches for TSC, including the goals
    of the trials, patient eligibility criteria, and
    other key factors

3
Clinical Manifestations of TSC
  • Brain cortical tubers, subependymal nodules,
    subependymal giant cell astrocytomas
  • Eye retinal hamartomas
  • Heart cardiac rhabdomyomas
  • Kidney benign angiomyolipomas, cysts, malignant
    angiomyolipomas, renal cell carcinoma
  • Lung lymphangioleiomyomatosis, multifocal
    micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia
  • Skin hypomelanotic macules, shagreen patches,
    periungual or subungual fibromas, facial
    angiofibromas
  • Behavior mental retardation, autism, bipolar
    disorder

Neurologic/Behavioral Manifestations
  • Seizures (90)
  • Mental retardation and learning difficulties
    (60-70)
  • Sleep disorders (60)
  • Autism and behavioral difficulties (30-50)
  • Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (15-20)

19
Seizures, Infantile Spasms, and Cognitive Outcome
  • Infantile spasms correlated with increased risk
    for poor neurologic outcomea

Infantile Spasms in TSC
  • Vigabatrin is the treatment of choice in TSC
  • Risk for adverse effect on peripheral vision
  • As high as 95 response rate in TSCa
  • Steroids are second-line treatment
    (adrenocorticotropic hormone or oral prednisone)
  • Valproate, topiramate, clonazepam minimally
    effective as single agents but may have
    beneficial adjunctive use

21
Epilepsy in TSC
  • About 90 of patients with TSC experience
    seizures
  • Virtually all seizure types have been reported
    (simple partial, complex partial, generalized
    tonic-clonic, absence)
  • Aggressive treatment is necessary to reduce risk
    for negative neurologic outcome (development,
    cognition, behavior)

22
Surgical Outcome of Epilepsy Surgery in TSC
  • Outcome (Engels classification)
  • Class I (seizure free) 37/69
  • Class II (some seizures) 8/69
  • Class III (gt 90 reduction) 13/69
  • Class IV (lt 90 reduction) 12/69

Summary
  • Tuberous sclerosis is a multiorgan disorder with
    variable penetrance and severity

  • Molecular-based therapies using mTOR inhibitors
    are showing promise in treating patients with TSC
