Core Viewpoint - The market perceives a saturated space for anti-epileptic drugs, but there exists a significant treatment gap in epilepsy, with 51.7 million people affected globally as of 2021, and current medications having limited efficacy and notable side effects. New drugs with promising clinical data may address this unmet need [1][3]. Group 1: Treatment Gap in Epilepsy - Approximately 9 million epilepsy patients in China face a treatment gap, with around 30% of patients unable to achieve effective seizure control despite monotherapy or polytherapy [1][3]. Group 2: New Drug Development - The pipeline for anti-epileptic drugs is expanding due to the discovery of new targets and technologies, with breakthroughs expected to fill the unmet market needs. Current anti-seizure medications (ASMs) have limited efficacy and significant side effects [3]. - Notable advancements in overseas clinical trials include Xenon's XEN1101, Longboard's Bexicaserin, and Stoke's Zorevunersen, while domestic progress includes Hainan Haiyao's new generation KCNQ potassium channel activator [3].
