Filter by:An open-labeled, prospective, single-center proof-of-concept study. Patients with Gaucher Disease aged 18-75 who received intravenous Enzyme Replacement Therapy once every two weeks were enrolled. The study utilized the Altus Care™ cellular phone-based application, which integrated an algorithm-based approach to provide random dosing regimens within a pre-defined range determined by the physician. The app allowed personalized therapeutic regimens with variations in dosages and administration times.
Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated dried blood spots collected between the first day and 28 days of life of babies, after a consent sign by parents.
Study J3Z-MC-OJAE is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label, dose-finding study of LY3884961 evaluating the safety and tolerability in adults with peripheral manifestations of GD. Up to 3 dose levels of LY3884961 will be assessed in 3 dose-finding cohorts of 3 patients. Following this, up to 6 patients may be enrolled into an expansion cohort. For each enrolled patient, the study will be approximately 5 years in duration, including up to a 45-day screening period. During the first 18 months after dosing, subjects will be evaluated for the effects of LY3884961 on safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, biomarkers, and efficacy. Patients will be followed up for an additional 42 months to monitor safety, immunogenicity, and selected biomarker and efficacy parameters.
Gaucher disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficient activity of the enzyme acid β-glucosidase, causing glucosylceramide to accumulate within macrophages and leading to hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and bone disease. In the non-neuronpathic form (type 1), disease manifestations are mostly systemic, whereas in the neuronopathic forms, glucosylceramide also accumulates in the central nervous sysem and leads to acute (type 2) or chronic (type 3) neurodegeneration. The purpose of this Phase 1/2 first-in-human study is to initially evaluate the safety and tolerability of two doses of CAN103, and then barring any safety concerns, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the two doses administered intravenously every other week in treatment-naive subjects with Gaucher disease type 1 or type 3.
This study is a first-in-human, open-label, safety, tolerability, and efficacy study in adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 1. The aims are to investigate the safety/tolerability and efficacy of FLT201, and to investigate the relationship of FLT201 dose to augmentation of residual glucocerebrosidase (GCase) expression (activity and concentration), and its potential to improve the clinical phenotype by reduction and prevention of cellular accumulation of GCase substrate.
Objective of the trial. To define a sub-population which is at increased risk of developing Parkinson, beyond the fact of carrying Gaucher; in this sub-population the investigators shall conduct a comprehensive evaluation that includes a variety of non-invasive tests, whose purpose is to evaluate the state of the pre- Parkinson's disease signs, signs which can appear, even twenty years before the appearance of the disease, and also to compare them to a group of diagnosed Gaucher patients and a group of healthy people who are not carriers of Gaucher disease. A group of those carriers will be available for trial or for treatment, if there will be a medicine for the prevention of the development of Parkinson, obtainable.
The objective of this study is to assess Elelyso treatment on bone disease in Gaucher patients currently treated with other enzyme replacement therapy. Experience from early access program (2009-2012) has suggested that some patients who have been stable on imiglucerase have shown poor scores of QCSI with Fat Fraction below the cut off point of 0.23 which is considered "bone at risk", and have demonstrated remarkable improvement upon switching to Elelyso, including particularly 2 patients who did not have any change in dose or any drug interruption prior to the switch. These findings may be explained by the better glycan structure of imiglucerase (see Tekoah et al, 2013). The fact that in many patients prevention of bony complications is the main indication for ERT highlights the importance of this study, as all clinical trials of all ERTS heretofore did not include the bones as primary or secondary end-points but only as exploratory, and as such had only limited value,
Background: In order to allow our satisfied patients, who have successfully completed 24 months of rapid intravenous infusion of Velaglucerase alfa (VPRIV), to continue with the 10 minutes IV therapy, the clinical trial framework must be extended; and this extension is important for the assessment of long term benefit (up to 5 years) of this regimen of administration of Velaglucerase alfa.. Suggested trial: An additional 36 months home therapy follow up of safety and efficacy of rapid intravenous infusion of Velaglucerase alfa (VPRIV) in adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease. Patients must have completed the prior 4 parts / 24 months of the protocol before enrolling into this extension phase ("Part 5") and have provided a new consent before entering PART 5 of the study. Patients must not have experienced clinically significant AEs, including allergic reactions, in any of the prior study parts of this protocol to be eligible to participate, and have maintained stability in the key disease features. All infusions of 10' will be given in the context of home therapy. "Clinically significant" AEs will be determined by the PI using standard description of AEs as previously described at phase 3, and if necessary will support withdrawal of the patient from the study.
Bone-related problems represent the principal unmet medical need in Gaucher disease (GD). 75% of GD type 1 patients develop skeletal complications, including bone remodeling defects, osteopenia, osteoporosis, marrow infiltration, avascular necrosis, and osteolysis. However, the underlying cellular/molecular basis of bone involvement and related complications in GD are not fully known. Neither are there any bone-specific markers associated with individual bone pathology. Early diagnosis of bone disease is the key issue for planning individual therapy to prevent and reverse bone disease in GD.
Ambroxol hydrochloride, an over-the-counter antitussive available in many markets , was identified as an interesting pharmacological chaperone. In addition to a mucolytic action, ambroxol has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Importantly, ambroxol therapy was found safe when given to pregnant women for prevention of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome . Thus, ambroxol, an oral available drug on the market, may be a safe option for GD patients with potential disease-specific efficacy and should be expanded into a clinical trial using higher doses and placebo-controlled design. The investigators propose to start with a phase II study for patients with type 1 GD and suboptimal response to ERT. In addition the investigators plan to open an international registry of patients with GD currently receiving ambroxol (off study).
