BACKGROUND: Prion diseases are a group of rare, neurodegenerative conditions that are invariably fatal and cause a variety of symptoms, which can prove challenging to control. Through this paper, we aim to review the current evidence regarding pharmacological management of neuropsychiatric and motor symptoms of prion disease as well as draw on experts' and relatives' experience, to evaluate the current evidence and provide recommendations moving forwards.
METHODS: A scoping review of the literature for pharmacological management of symptoms was conducted using the systematic review tool, COVIDENCE, with searches conducted through four databases. 120 papers were selected for inclusion, and data extraction was carried out by two independent reviewers. Given the lack of high-quality data and small numbers, no further attempt at statistical analysis was made, and results are presented in a thematic synthesis.
RESULTS: Although a broad range of approaches and pharmacotherapies are trialled to manage these challenging symptoms, there are patterns emerging of some efficacy seen with the use of benzodiazepines, antipsychotic and anticonvulsant medications in both motor and neuropsychiatric symptoms in prion disease. These approaches and associated challenges were reflected in international expert opinion that was gathered via online survey.
CONCLUSION: There continues to be a paucity of good-quality evidence and we suggest a need for longitudinal, population-based and standardised research to allow a robust evidence base, which in turn will guide excellent symptom control and end of life care for this group of complex patients.
