Filter by:ScreenPlus is a consented, multi-disorder pilot newborn screening program implemented in conjunction with the New York State Newborn Screening Program that provides families the option to have their newborn(s) screened for a panel of additional conditions. The study has three primary objectives: 1) define the analytic and clinical validity of multi-tiered screening assays for a flexible panel of disorders, 2) determine disease incidence in an ethnically diverse population, and 3) assess the impact of early diagnosis on health outcomes. Over a five-year period, ScreenPlus aims to screen 175,000 infants born in nine high birthrate, ethnically diverse pilot hospitals in New York for a flexible panel of 14 rare genetic disorders. This study will also involve an evaluation of the Ethical, Legal and Social issues pertaining to NBS for complex disorders, which will be done via online surveys that will be directed towards ScreenPlus parents who opt to participate and qualitative interviews with families of infants who are identified through ScreenPlus.
To assess the reliablity and validity of 2 new iris cameras in the assement of corneal opacification in mucopolysaccharidoses
Morquio A disease is a devastating systemic skeletal disease in which detailed progression and pathogenesis remain unknown. The proposed project aims to establish a non-invasive objective assessment that can be applicable to all ages of patients to better understand the progress of their disease and the most serious clinical problems (cervical instability and stenosis, tracheal obstruction, hyperlaxity of joints, hip dysplasia, and small lung capacity). The outcome of this project will lead to a more precise understanding of the skeletal/pulmonary compromise and defining clinical endpoints in this disease for future clinical trials of current or developing therapies.
Phase 1, open-label, sequential ascending dose-escalation study. Designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single IV infusion of investigational gene therapy HMI-203. Males, ages 18 to 45 years inclusive, with MPS II (Hunter syndrome) currently receiving idursulfase ERT (or the equivalent) are eligible to participate. Participants will be followed for safety and efficacy for 5 years.
This is phase 2/3 study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of the investigational product GNR-055 in MPS II (Hunter syndrome) patients of different age groups.
The main aims of the study are to learn about the percentage of mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) in adults in Brazil as well as about the diagnosis process. No study medicines will be provided to participants in this study. The data available for participants diagnosed with MPS II in DATASUS (a database of the Informatics Department of Brazilian Health System) will be reviewed. No clinic visits will be required as part of participation in this study.
This is a single treatment arm study that is open-label to be conducted in Chinese participants with MPS I. Trial Objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Aldurazyme in Chinese MPS I participants, and to evaluate the efficacy of Aldurazyme on the percent change of urinary glycosaminoglycans (uGAGs) from baseline to Week 26. The study will also evaluate the effect on uGAG level and liver volume (hepatomegaly) after 26 weeks, with Aldurazyme treatment in Chinese MPS I participants. Treatment duration will include: 2 weeks of screening, 26 weeks of treatment and 1 week of follow-up period. During the treatment period, weekly visits are designed to accommodate weekly administration of Aldurazyme (laronidase).
Primary objective: To obtain data pertaining to the safety and tolerability of alglucosidase alfa and laronidase treatments administered in a home-care infusion setting. Secondary objectives: - To evaluate personal satisfaction of both cohorts of patients treated in a home-care infusion setting. - To evaluate the infusion compliance in both cohorts of patients treated in a home-care infusion setting.
This study's investigators previously demonstrated the potential utility of non-invasive carotid ultrasonography to calculate carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and stiffness (as measured by the three parameters, carotid cross-sectional distensibility [cCSD], carotid cross-sectional compliance [cCSC], and carotid incremental elastic modulus [cIEM]) in people with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS). Investigators also studied arterial gene expression in animal models of MPS, and identified upregulation of a number of markers potentially tied to atherosclerosis and inflammation. These include the atherosclerotic marker known as Clusterin (CLU), Cathepsin S, Elastin, and the inflammatory cytokines interleukin 1-α, interleukin 1-β, interleukin 2, and interleukin 6. Other studies have identified elevation in circulating tumor necrosis factor-α correlating with pain and physical disability in certain mucopolysaccharidoses. Since these studies are cross sectional, and not longitudinal, this study aims to annually measure these previously studied biomarkers (carotid measurements, circulating cytokines, cathepsin S, elastin, and CLU) in a large cohort of MPS patients. This study is a 3-year, prospective, anonymized, longitudinal assessment of cardiovascular structure, function, and circulating biomarkers in patients with mucopolysaccharidoses.
The main aim of this study is to learn more about the safety profile of Elaprase in Indian children and adults with hunter syndrome. Participants will receive Elaprase once per week over a 3-hour period which can be reduced to 1 hour as determined by the study doctor. Participants will need to visit the clinic weekly during the duration of the study.
