    Eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL) is an anticonvulsant medication approved for use in Europe, the United States and Canada as an adjunctive therapy for partial-onset seizures that are not adequately controlled with conventional therapy. Eslicarbazepine acetate is a prodrug that is rapidly converted to eslicarbazepine, the primary active metabolite in the body. Eslicarbazepine's mechanism of action is not well understood, but it is known that it does exert anticonvulsant activity by inhibiting repeated neuronal firing and stabilizing the inactivated state of voltage-gated sodium channels, thus preventing their return to the activated state during which seizure activity can occur. Eslicarbazepine acetate is marketed as Aptiom in North America and Zebinix or Exalief in Europe. It is available in 200, 400, 600, or 800mg tablets that are taken once daily, with or without food. Eslicarbazepine acetate is associated with numerous side effects including dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, aphasia, lack of concentration, psychomotor retardation, speech disturbances, ataxia, depression and hyponatremia. It is recommended that patients taking eslicarbazepine acetate be monitored for suicidality.

    5.5 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

    Absorption

    Eslicarbazepine active metabolite has a high bioavailability and reaches peak serum concentration 1-4 hours after a given dose. Eslicarbazepine acetate absorption is not affected by food.

    Route of Elimination

    Eslicarbazepine acetate and its metabolites are eliminated primarily via renal excretion. Eslicarbazepine active metabolite is excreted two-thirds in the unchanged form and one-third as a glucuronide conjugate. This accounts for around 90% of total metabolites excreted, with the remaining 10% being minor metabolites. Renal tubular reabsorption is expected to occur with eslicarbazepine.

    Volume of Distribution

    The apparent volume of distribution of eslicarbazepine is 61.3 L for a body weight of 70 kg based on population PK analysis.

    Clearance

    Renal clearance of eslicarbazepine was found to be approximately 20 mL/min in healthy subjects with normal renal function.

    5.6 Metabolism/Metabolites

    Eslicarbazepine acetate is rapidly and extensively metabolized to its major active metabolite, eslicarbazepine, via hydrolytic first-pass metabolism. Eslicarbazepine corresponds to about 92% of systemic exposure. Minor active metabolites (R)-licarbazepine and oxcarbazepine consist of <5% of systemic exposure. Active metabolites are then metabolized to inactive glucuronides that correspond to about 3% of systemic exposure. Eslicarbazepine had a moderate inhibitory effect on CYP2C19 and a mild activation of UGT1A1-mediated glucuronidation when studied in human hepatic microsomes. It has been shown to induce CYP3A4 enzymes in vivo.

    5.7 Biological Half-Life

    The apparent plasma half-life of eslicarbazepine is 10-20 hours in healthy subjects and 13-20 hours in epilepsy patients. Steady-state plasma concentrations are attained after 4 to 5 days of once daily dosing.

    5.8 Mechanism of Action

    Eslicarbazepine acetate is converted to the active metabolite eslicarbazepine which carries out its anticonvulsant activity. The exact mechanism of action is unknown, but it is thought to involve the inhibition of voltage-gated sodium channels. In in vitro electrophysiological studies, eslicarbazepine was shown to inhibit repeated neuronal firing by stabilizing the inactivated state of voltage-gated sodium channels and preventing their return to the activated state. In vitro studies also showed eslicarbazepine inhibiting T-type calcium channels, which likely also has a role in anticonvulsant activity.
