Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis Type 2: A Case Series from Argentina

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2022
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) disease is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the CLN2/TPP1 gene, leading to a deficiency in tripeptidyl peptidase 1 activity.

Investigating health-related quality of life in rare diseases: a case study in utility value determination for patients with CLN2 disease (neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2)

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Utility studies enable preference-based quantification of a disease’s impact on patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL). It is often difficult to obtain utility values for rare, neurodegenerative conditions due to cognitive burden of ...

A survival analysis of ventricular access devices for delivery of cerliponase alfa

open access: yesJournal of Neurosurgery: Pediatrics, 2022
OBJECTIVE Late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by tripeptidyl peptidase 1 enzyme deficiency. At the authors’ center, the medication cerliponase alfa is administered every 2 weeks via the intracerebroventricular (ICV) route.

Cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament light chain levels in CLN2 disease patients treated with enzyme replacement therapy normalise after two years on treatment [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2022
Classic late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (CLN2 disease) is caused by a deficiency of tripeptidyl-peptidase-1. In 2017, the first CLN2 enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) cerliponase alfa (Brineura) was approved by the FDA and EMA.

Cerliponase alfa in the treatment of patients with classic and atypical late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in Latin America

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract Introduction: Late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2), is a neurodegenerative autosomal recessive disease caused by TPP1 gene variants, with a spectrum of classic and atypical phenotypes. The aim of treatment is to slow functional decline as early as possible, improving quality of life and survival.
