Sleep hormone tested to calm storms in young brains

NCT ID NCT07221968

Summary

This study is testing if a high dose of melatonin, a natural sleep hormone, can help control a rare and severe form of childhood epilepsy called DEE-SWAS. It will involve just 3 children who have this condition. Researchers will check if the high dose is safe and if it reduces the abnormal brain wave activity that happens during sleep and causes developmental problems.
