Enzyme replacement therapy: efficacy and limitations [PDF]

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2018
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is available for mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) I, MPS II, MPS VI, and MPS IVA. The efficacy of ERT has been evaluated in clinical trials and in many post-marketing studies with a long-term follow-up for MPS I, MPS II, and MPS VI.

Retrospective study of long-term outcomes of enzyme replacement therapy in Fabry disease: Analysis of prognostic factors [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Despite enzyme replacement therapy, disease progression is observed in patients with Fabry disease. Identification of factors that predict disease progression is needed to refine guidelines on initiation and cessation of enzyme replacement therapy.

Enzyme replacement therapies: what is the best option? [PDF]

open access: yesBioImpacts, 2018
Despite many beneficial outcomes of the conventional enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), several limitations such as the high-cost of the treatment and various inadvertent side effects including the occurrence of an immunological response against the infused enzyme and development of resistance to enzymes persist.

Erythrocytes as Carriers of Therapeutic Enzymes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Therapeutic enzymes are administered for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. They exert their effects through binding with a high affinity and specificity to disease-causing substrates to catalyze their conversion to a non-noxious product, to ...

Enzyme Replacement Therapy In Hypophosphatasia

open access: yesJournal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, 2018
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in pediatric patients. The disease also imposes a high disease-burden in adult-onset HPP. Asfotase alfa (AA) is the first-in-class, bone-targeted, enzyme- replacement therapy designated to reverse the skeletal mineralisation defects in HPP.

Enzyme replacement therapy for Gaucher disease [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1991
Four patients with moderately severe type I Gaucher disease were treated with commercially available mannose terminated glucocerebrosidase (Ceredase; Genzyme, Boston, MA) for up to 13 months. The enzyme was administered at the rate of three to four times weekly at one fourth the total recommended dosage, greatly decreasing the cost.

Cost-effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy with alglucosidase alfa in classic-infantile patients with Pompe disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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.

Engineering of GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase for production of highly phosphorylated lysosomal enzymes for enzyme replacement therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Several lysosomal enzymes currently used for enzyme replacement therapy in patients with lysosomal storage diseases contain very low levels of mannose 6-phosphate, limiting their uptake via mannose 6-phosphate receptors on the surface of the deficient ...
