Abstract「要旨」中枢性ベンゾジアゼピン受容体(BZR)に特異的に結合する123I-イオマゼニル(本剤)の第3相臨床試験を実施し, てんかん患者121例(部分てんかん106例, 全汎てんかん15例)を対象にてんかん焦点診断における本剤の有用性を検討した. MRI/CTで異常がなかった24例中20例において本剤後期像で局所性の異常を認めたが, 血流像で異常がみられたのは, これら20例中16例のみであった. 部分てんかんにおいて後期像の異常所見部位は, 発作症状, 発作間歇期脳波およびMRI/CTと比較し得た症例のそれぞれ76%, 70%および96%の症例で推定された焦点部位と一致または部分一致を示し, また, これら3者の所見による焦点部位が一致した症例の92%, 発作時脳波による焦点部位とは72%の症例で一致または部分一致を示した. 本剤後期像は, これらいずれの比較においても有意ではないが血流像の一致率を上回った. さらに, 手術で確定し得た焦点部位において, 血流像で異常のない領域での焦点の描出に優れていた. 本剤は, 脳内BZRの分布に基づいた, 新しいてんかん焦点検索の手段となり得ることが示された.

Abstract[Summary]A Phase 3 clinical trial of 123I-Iomazenil(IMZ), a tracer which binds specifically to central-type benzodiazepine receptors(BZR), was performed, and the clinical usefulness of IMZ was evaluated in 121 patients with epilepsy(106 cases with partial epilepsy and 15 cases with generalized epilepsy). A regional abnormality in the BZR distribution was detected in late IMZ images in 20 of 24 cases without abnormal MRI and/or X-ray CT findings. Moreover, only 16 of these 20 cases showed abnormal findings in the cerebral blood flow(CBF)images. In partial epilepsy, abnormal regions in late IMZ images agreed or partially agreed with epileptic foci estimated from the clinical symptoms of epileptic seizures, interictal EEG, and MRI and/or X-ray CT findings in 76%, 70% and 96% of the cases detected. These regions also agreed or partially agreed with the estimated epileptic foci in 92% of the cases with foci estimated by combination of those three methods and in 72% of those estimated by ictal EEG. The agreement or partial agreement rates of late IMZ images with each of the other methods were higher than those of CBF images, although the differences were not significant. For surgically-proven epileptic foci without any abnormality in the CBF image, abnormal regions were detected in late IMZ images. These findings suggest that IMZ SPECT is a useful new tool for detecting epileptic foci based on the distribution of BZR in the brain.
