Hardly any data from randomized trials

Levetiracetam

: may be overall well tolerated and have good

activity against seizures in brain tumor patients

Lamotrigine

: no comprehensive testing in brain tumor

patients; overall good antiepileptic activity, well tolerated

Pregabalin

: may be considered as an alternative drug,

probably not approved as monotherapy in most countries

Valproic acid

: active, moderate tolerability, may have anti-

tumor properties (?)

Conclusions: brain tumors and epilepsy
