Filter by:The primary aims of the HOME Study are to: - Design and implement a natural history study for metachromatic leukodystrophy to serve as a source of external control data, to augment or replace concurrent controls in clinical trials; - Pilot test and develop guidance on how to design, conduct, and analyze the data from a natural history study to support adaptive trial designs for regulatory use; - Reduce burden of participation in trials and provide a potential solution to patient recruitment challenges, particularly for RCT's; and - Design approaches that support remote participation in studies.
OTL-200 is a cryopreserved dispersion for infusion containing autologous CD34+ cell enriched population that contains haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) transduced ex vivo using a lentiviral vector encoding the human arylsulfatase A (ARSA) gene. MLD is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) characterized by severe and progressive demyelination affecting the central and peripheral nervous system. The aim of this clinical study is to assess the pharmacodynamic effect and long-term clinical efficacy and safety of OTL-200 in Late Juvenile MLD patients.
The main aim of the study is to determine if SHP611 given by injection into the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal; IT) prolongs the time for children with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) to retain the ability to move from place to place. Other aims of the study are to determine the effects of intrathecal administration of SHP611 on movement and speech functions and to learn how well SHP611 injected in the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord is tolerated. Study participants will receive SHP611 for about 2 years with the possibility of an extended treatment period.
OTL-200 is autologous CD34+ cells transduced with lentiviral vector containing human arylsulfatase A (ARSA) complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) used for the treatment of MLD. MLD is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) characterized by severe and progressive demyelination affecting the central and peripheral nervous system. This study will assess safety and efficacy of treatment using cryopreserved formulation of OTL-200 in pediatric subjects with pre-symptomatic Early Onset MLD (Late Infantile (LI) to Early Juvenile (EJ) MLD) and early symptomatic EJ MLD.
Leukodystrophies, and other heritable disorders of the white matter of the brain, were previously resistant to genetic characterization, largely due to the extreme genetic heterogeneity of molecular causes. While recent work has demonstrated that whole genome sequencing (WGS), has the potential to dramatically increase diagnostic efficiency, significant questions remain around the impact on downstream clinical management approaches versus standard diagnostic approaches.
The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety data in participants with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) who are receiving HGT-1110 and have participated in Study HGT-MLD-070 (NCT01510028) through Week 40.
The objective of this open-label, single arm, monocentric, phase I/II clinical study is to assess safety and efficacy of ARSA gene transfer in the brain of children affected with early onset forms of Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD). For this purpose, an adeno-associated virus serotype rh.10 (AAVrh.10) vector will be used to transfer the ARSA cDNA coding for Arylsulfatase A (ARSA) enzyme into the brain of children. Five patients with early onset form of MLD, age ranging from 6 months to 4 years, will be included in this protocol and will be followed during 24 months. Patients will be selected at presymptomatic or early stage of their disease, following clinical, neuropsychological and brain imaging criteria. Twelve simultaneous injections of the investigational medicinal product will be performed in the white matter of both brain hemispheres, through 6 image-guided tracks, with 2 deposits per track. A low dose (1x10EXP12 vg total) will be administered to the first 2 patients, while the last 3 will receive a higher dose (4x10EXP12 vg total). Safety and efficiency will be evaluated based on clinical, neuropsychological, radiological, electrophysiological and biological parameters.
This Phase I/II clinical trial consists of the application of lentiviral vector-based gene therapy to patients affected by Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD), a rare inherited Lysosomal Storage Disorder (LSD) resulting from mutations in the gene encoding the Arylsulfatase A (ARSA) enzyme. The medicinal product consists of autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells in which a functional ARSA cDNA is introduced by means of 3rd generation VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral vectors.
There have not been longitudinal studies which track patients' neurologically or developmentally in a systematic manner. By simultaneously tracking patients' neurodevelopment along with neuroimaging and neurophysiologic studies it becomes much easier to draw conclusions on the differential effects of the disease process and any available treatments that patients might receive. In addition, many of the gene mutations, which cause MLD have not been linked to the age of onset or the expected disease course.
OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from pediatric patients with storage disorders prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the presence of proinflammatory cytokines and for the production of nitric oxide by alveolar macrophages to identify possible risk factors for pulmonary complications. II. Investigate the underlying mechanism for the development of significant pulmonary complications in these patients during HSCT. III. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from these same patients at the time a pulmonary complication develops post-HSCT, or at 60 days post-HSCT if there has been no pulmonary complications.
