BONES – This is not medical advice, I am not a doctor. Talk to a doctor AND know your facts.
Valproate is the active Ion, it comes from Valproic Acid (Depakene), Sodium Valproate or Divalproex Sodium (Depakote). They all cause bone loss by stoping stomach from absorbing, then robbing bones, then flushing out. More and longer is worse. Vitamin D and Calcium can help but they need to start early and it’s better to just find another drug. Also insurance likes it because it’s cheap and old – demand better.
“Valproic acid and clobazam were commonly used for epilepsy treatment, while risperidone, aripiprazole, and guanfacine were commonly used for behavior management. Valproate and lamotrigine were more effective at reducing seizure frequencies or maintaining seizure freedom than other anti-seizure medications.” Clinical signatures of SYNGAP1-related disorders through data integration https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12419475/

CURE SYNGAP1 STRATEGY WORKING
Our strategy has always been to derisk SYNGAP1 so that industry will invest and bring their skill and capital to bear. We leverage donor dollars to maximize impact. Yesterday was a great example:
EARNINGS REPORTS
CAMP4 1Q26 Results: $99M https://investors.camp4tx.com/news-releases/news-release-details/camp4-reports-first-quarter-2026-financial-results-and-corporate
We submitted our first regulatory filing for CMP-002 in Australia which positions us to initiate a global first-in-human Phase 1/2 clinical trial in the second half of 2026.
Stoke 1Q26 Results: $411M https://investor.stoketherapeutics.com/news-releases/news-release-details/stoke-therapeutics-announces-first-quarter-2026-financial
Lead optimization is underway to identify a clinical candidate for the treatment of SYNGAP1 in 2026. SYNGAP1 is a severe and rare genetic neurodevelopmental disease.
Praxis 1Q26 Results: $1.4B https://investors.praxismedicines.com/news-releases/news-release-details/praxis-precision-medicines-provides-corporate-update-and-19
Praxis remains on track to nominate a development candidate for each of its three early stage ASO therapeutic initiatives in the first half of 2026: PRAX-090 is designed to address SYNGAP1 loss-of-function (LoF) mutations, a leading cause of severe intellectual disability and epilepsy in DEEs.

CURE SYNGAP1 joins the Haystack Project in petitioning FDA for more clarity.
Show your support here: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2026-P-3666-0001
Paragraph 1 – Share information about you and SYNGAP1.
Paragraph 2 – Seizures are hard to count while X, Y and Z are major burdens but FDA wants nice countable seizures, this makes it hard to develop drugs.
Paragraph 3 – How could “clinically meaningful” endpoints potentially help your community and drug developers? How could a study design other than a ‘randomized clinical trial’ help? How could FDA consulting with disease-specific experts help?
Closing – Finish your letter with anything along these lines: We support the framework for all rare set diseases in Haystack’s petition. We don’t believe FDA has to lower the evidentiary bar to approve treatments for our diseases. Randomization isn’t always possible. New scientific methods should be considered. Endpoints specific to our disease should be considered. We urge FDA to open a rulemaking so we can have a legally binding regulation.
Board changes, thank you to everyone. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/curesyngap1_curesyngap1-syngap1-patientadvocacy-activity-7450528611339616256-4MJF?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAAD8f4B7JC4TMss45Q8hrsq5kiceI0Z8HE
