Ep 152The Coast 2 Coast Challenge benefiting the SYNGAP1 #ProMMiS for Clinical Excellence is critical. #S10e152

Tuesday, October 22, 2024 First Principles Genetic disease means that gene broken since conception. Novel medicines are possible ways to fix the gene - Genetic Therapies (ASO &/or AAV), this is recent, before now, kids with these diseases were a “go home and love them” situation. These are delivered via spinal tap or directly to the brain in leading medical centers. First though, regulators must approve. Our job Develop medicines or get industry to - This is happening see Pipeline Get regulators to approve trials Get medical centers up to speed on SYNGAP1-Related Disorders (SRD) What we are building on CHOP ENDD funded externally (see #S10e92) and replicating what was built for STXBP1, check last week’s webinar https://curesyngap1.org/resources/webinars/93-endd-chop-2024-syngap1/ Rare-X platform for PRO collection Regulatory pathway being made clearer every day by Stoke (Dravet), Praxis (SCN2A), Ionis (many) all of whom are working on SYNGAP1 as well. What we are asking for We need to raise at least $500k (3rd site), preferably $1.13M (ProMMiS) Make your largest gift ever to SRF Fundraise with friends and family ACES is now ProMMiS, who knew ACE meant Adverse Childhood Event, not us. Key slides: S1 Path to Treatment | 2024 (09.27.24) 1. Why Now? Why is it time to go from bench to bedside (research to clinical)? At least 10 companies on our pipeline not to mention multiple small molecule efforts We have limited resources – so the focus has to transition, clinical funding first. CHOP Gift is 1 year down… 2. Why NHS?Understand SYNGAP1 better, go beyond Vlaskamp 2019 and Wiltrout 2024, see #S10e105 FYI at CHOP, as I shared in #S10e151, at year 1, we are at – 86 (Visits) + 10 (new scheduled) + 19 (2nd) + 4 (3rd) + 22 (follow up) Learn what to measure in clinical trials for SRD, remember our seizures are challenging Ideally we develop a Synthetic Control Arm if we use GCP Why top shelf? We need institutions the FDA will take seriously and our children are very complex requiring experienced clinicians. 3. Why Multidisciplinary. Neuro, Psych, Genetics, PT, ST, OT, GI, Sleep, ENT, Ortho. Beyond the sheer burden of getting our kids out and about for multiple appointments the coordination by a parent is almost impossible. 4. Why Multisite/3 sites?Replicable/scalable required by regulators Accessibility (not primary reason) Establish more locations where trials will be managed Laying a foundation for a national self-sustaining network 3 is the minimum, look at STARR or Angelman, both had/ve 4. 5. How and why so fast? Because we can. Time is Brain. Following a well trodden path SMA, Rett, Angelman, Dravet, but we are moving FASTER. 6. Does the industry really care? We are next there are so so many behind us, eager to take the resources we have access to today. Market size (Per our Census 425 US/1500 global is tip of iceberg) Multiple players reassuring each other Relatively strong amount of scientific and clinical research Haploinsufficiency (like Dravet – STOKE) – so relatively easy 7. Expensive? No. Clinical Research is more expensive than basic scientific research. Leveraging CHOP and Rare-X, setting up required networks to prepare for clinical trials. It’s time. 8. Why Bother/Help? Now is the time for SYNGAP1, we miss it at our peril. Sure, once in these places we will still see our patients, but the study, the support and the focus may pass. Our kids don’t die, regardless of patient age, what we are doing can change their future and that of their loved ones and caregivers. If not us, then who? It is a rare exception when a non-family member gives a gift, and it is always because a family member asked. We must ask. 9. What can I do? Donate to, share, join our Coast2Coast Clinics Challenge – two SYNGAP1 Squads in West and East – it’s critical $500k goal by end of 2024; more than $1M needed just for the SYNGAP1ProMMiS. So far, donations from $25 to $25,000 – each and every contribution matters. This requires our entire S1 network to solicit family, friends, work colleagues, companies, etc. to contribute. Many causes out there – why not ours?

Top 5 from Abbott webinar: Colorado seeing less patients than CHOP, but could see more if the interest raises. Wherever you are, get to a site. The more data you have, the more industry interest. This is a partnership between CHOP & CHCO. Data will be shared across all sites. Very good for SYNGAP1 research. Model successful with other rares, ie CDKL5 and STXBP1. Visit info: CHCO visits are split over 2 days. Visits will include behavioral support with neuropsych. Multidiciplinary clinic space itself is really nice and well-planned. SRF board approved travel reimbursement. Dinner on Saturday, talk to Lauren To sign up for the Colorado clinic please contact SRF Ops Manager, Lauren Perry, [email protected]. FUNDRAISERS!

MDBR is 3 weeks away! https://Syngap.Fund/Unite $5k match https://x.com/phalliburton/status/1792288377049415835 It’s all about therapies. Precision Genetic and Repurposed. Conferences are where we engage professional communities around SYNGAP1 & SRF. - Last week I was at Milken Global. All diseases are talking about biomarkers & endpoints. https://milkeninstitute.org/events/global-conference-2024/program - This week I was at the #Ultragenyx Bootcamp with our CSO https://www.ultragenyx.com/video-this-bootcamp-helps-parents-advance-rare-disease-research/ So good to see Kathryn energized by this role. - ASGCT was last week and that means announcements… - Kathryn and I are off to BIO in June in San Diego.

Cost effective. Globally available. They are here now. We must act, the suffering is immense. They show us what is improvable and therefore inform clinical trial design. They are not compromising other trials. And to even suggest that is unethical if it suggests people should hold off on helping patients. How about we just diagnose more kids? Or think harder about which kids go to which trials? Precision Genetic Therapies are going to be more effective than repurposed drugs, people will happily participate in trials. Review of repurposed drugs: RAVICTI Rx- 10+ patients with Dr. Grinspan, not all but a few have had significant seizure reduction. I remain worried about cost and look to STXBP1 and SLC6A1 for guidance here. NORTRIPTYLINE Rx - Has helped me, a handful of families are getting a Rx. I am hopeful that some researcher does an investigator led trial. But until then, ask your Neuro. ACETYL-LEUCINE is a Nutraceutical - Update 1 has really been noticed and Update 2 will share a few potential mechanisms of action. Many are trying this drug from https://bit.ly/tanganil24 Encouraging… no, updating. Please share data with us if you are trying. We are collecting case studies for Update 3.

If missense, do more research, if truncating, it is in the first 4 exons (p. Address of 129 or lower). Who else has it? Look on ClinVar and call SRF.

Repurposing: Friend message - “And I wanted to tell you about the worsening behavior with treatments: a friend of mine has a son with Dravet syndrome, and many years ago they started him on a drug that reduced the seizures quite a bit, and my friend used to say “with this new treatment cleaning his brain from all those EEG interferences, we are starting to see more of his personality… and we’ve realized that we don’t like him”.

SYNGAP1 Syndrome - ICD-11 - https://twitter.com/cureSYNGAP1/status/1730629792137883800 (2024) My vote (today) is that we have a disease that is a DEE called SYNGAP1 Related Disorders (SRD). These monogenic disorders are anything but monolithic. Disease vs. Syndrome, read this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1480257/ (Cavalo, 2003) A syndrome is a recognizable complex of symptoms and physical findings which indicate a specific condition for which a direct cause is not necessarily understood...Once medical science identifies a causative agent or process with a fairly high degree of certainty, physicians may then refer to the process as a disease, not a syndrome. NDD vs DEE - We are a DEE “Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) encompass highly prevalent conditions such as autism and epilepsy, with cognitive disabilities alone affecting 1-3% of the global population. Developmental epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) are NDD characterized by epilepsy and delayed development or loss of developmental skills. Although the prevalence of DEEs remains to be determined, studies estimate that single-gene epilepsies occur in around 1 in 2100 births annually.” https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-12-neurodevelopmental-epilepsy-disorder-genetic.html Give all three of our podcasts 5 stars everywhere. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/syngap1-podcasts-by-srf/id6464522917 This is a podcast subscribe! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/syngap10-weekly-10-minute-updates-on-syngap1/id1560389818 Episode 133 of #Syngap10 - Feb 13, 2024 #epilepsy #autism #intellectualdisability #id #anxiety #raredisease #epilepsyawareness #autismawareness #rarediseaseresearch #SynGAPResearchFund #CareAboutRare #PatientAdvocacy #GCchat #Neurology #GeneChat

Ep 131SYNGAP1 is complex, we need to partner with our clinicians to improve care & get ready for repurposing.  #S10e131

SYNGAP1 is complex, we need to partner with our clinicians to improve care & get ready for repurposing. #S10e131 Three patient stories… with the same conclusion, we don’t know enough about this disease. - VNS, very few meds. If that is appealing, look for the VNS parents. www.facebook.com/groups/syngap1vns/ - Little lady on Kepra finally getting a new drug. - Big man getting really odd care, based on EEG These kids are so complicated and the system is just not ready. We can help by supporting the studies I mentioned in #S10e128 1 - NEW!!! GLOBAL - Every english speaking caregiver on earth: Rochester survey, 15 minutes, online. https://redcap.link/NDDCaregiverSurvey 2 - GLOBAL - Multiple Languages - #SRFunded - Every caregiver of a patient 17 years or older: Andrade Adult Surveys. [email protected] 3 - GLOBAL - #SRFunded. Every english speaking caregiver on earth: Tom Frazier, eye tracking study, at home, 20 minutes every 3 months for a year. [email protected] 4 - USA: https://ciitizen.com/syngap1/srf/ as always! This data is critical and being used by multiple partners. Sign up/refresh! 5 - USA, East of the mountains: [email protected] free natural history study! #S10e105 https://youtu.be/qy5YrPIlH0I?si=4sl_IaLCA7YA6WpM West of the mountains, we are setting up at Stanford and Colorado. Please get in there ASAP. 6 - Texas: QEEG at Cook Childrens. Email Corey. All studies are on https://curesyngap1.org/studies/ REPURPOSING Also, repurposing is coming fast. 4PB is going into kids in the US and doctors in the Netherlands, Poland and Turkey are paying attention.
