A New Mutation Causing Severe Infantile-Onset Pompe Disease Responsive to Enzyme Replacement Therapy
Pompe disease (PD), also known as “glycogen storage disease type II (OMIM # 232300)” is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive glycogen accumulation in cellular lysosomes. It ultimately leads to cellular damage. Infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) is the most severe type of this disease and is characterized by severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and generalized hypoton...
متن کاملS2.2 Enzyme replacement therapy in the infantile-onset Pompe disease
patients identified by the neonatal screening and treated earlier than historical patients showed improved outcome in terms of motor activity and ventilatory-free survival. The immune status of PD patients has emerged as another important factor that impacts ERT efficacy. In a recent study the effects of ERT in 11 cross-reactive immunological material (CRIM) negative patients were compared with...
متن کاملCognitive outcome of classic infantile Pompe patients receiving enzyme therapy
Methods We prospectively assessed cognitive functioning in 10 children with classic infantile Pompe disease who had been treated with ERT since 1999. Until 2004, infants and young children were assessed with the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID-II; number of tests = 23). After 2004, we switched to the Griffiths Mental Developmental Scales (Griffiths; number of tests = 19), expecting it...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy with alglucosidase alfa in classic-infantile patients with Pompe disease
BACKGROUND Infantile Pompe disease is a rare metabolic disease. Patients generally do not survive the first year of life. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has proven to have substantial effects on survival in infantile Pompe disease. However, the costs of therapy are very high. In this paper, we assess the cost-effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy in infantile Pompe disease. METHODS A ...
متن کاملSustained immune tolerance induction in enzyme replacement therapy-treated CRIM-negative patients with infantile Pompe disease.
BACKGROUND Cross-reactive immunological material-negative (CRIM-negative) infantile Pompe disease (IPD) patients develop an immune response against enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with alglucosidase alfa that nullifies ERT efficacy. Prophylactic immune tolerance induction (ITI) with rituximab, methotrexate, and IVIG successfully prevents development of deleterious rhGAA IgG antibodies; however...
