Filter by:This is a Phase I/II, single arm, open label study of vosoritide therapy provided subcutaneously at 15 ug/kg/day for 48 weeks to 6 patients with MPS IVA or VI. Prior to enrollment in the interventional arm of study, subjects will be followed for a minimum of 24 weeks to gather information on safety profiles and determine annualized growth velocity. The primary study endpoint is the determination of safety and tolerability of daily vosoritide treatment in MPS. Exploratory endpoints include changes in linear and segmental growth as well as biomarkers of growth and bone metabolism.
The investigators aims to determine the the maternal and fetal safety and feasibility of in utero fetal enzyme replacement therapy in fetuses with Lysosomal Storage Diseases.
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are multisystemic diseases with significant clinical overlap between their types, with cardiac problems being among the most commonly observed manifestations and are also among the main causes of mortality in these patients. For some of the cardiovascular manifestations, such as aortic root dilation and valve diseases, there is no effective treatment currently available. Losartan, on the other hand, has been shown to be an effective drug for dilation of the aortic root, at least in animal models. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of losartan in patients with MPS VI and other mucopolysaccharidoses.
The purpose of this study is to identify patients with Morquio syndrome type A (MPS IVA) and Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (MPS VI) who may have been missed or misdiagnosed due to atypical clinical features, a milder course, and/or negative urine screening. We will recruit participants who have certain hip and/or joint problems that could potentially be caused by one of these two genetic conditions through a chart review process conducted at Shriners Hospital for Children in Greenville, SC. Diagnostic testing will be performed for each participant to determine if he or she is affected by one of these two conditions. Results will be disclosed to all participants and their legal guardians, and appropriate follow up will be recommended for those who are found to have abnormal results.
There is limited information on the long-term effects of treating patients with MPS VI with Naglazyme® and limited data on the natural history of treated and untreated MPS VI patients. The Re-survey Study ASB-00-03 will assist in understanding the effects of long-term Naglazyme treatment and the natural history of the MPS VI patient population.
