Regulatory timeline

Drug regulatory events matched to this condition by indication — EMA.

First approvals
2011emaApproval — Everolimus· Renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) Votubia is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) who are at risk of complications (based on factors such as tumour size or presence of aneurysm, or presence of multiple or bilateral tumours) but who do not require immediate surgery. The evidence is based on analysis of change in sum of angiomyolipoma volume. Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) Votubia is indicated for the treatment of patients with subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) who require therapeutic intervention but are not amenable to surgery. The evidence is based on analysis of change in SEGA volume. Further clinical benefit, such as improvement in disease?related symptoms, has not been demonstrated. source ↗

Defined in MeSH

Pathological outpouching or sac-like dilatation in the wall of any blood vessel (ARTERIES or VEINS) or the heart (HEART ANEURYSM). It indicates a thin and weakened area in the wall which may later rupture. Aneurysms are classified by location, etiology, or other characteristics.
