Trial Readiness: Understanding the Natural History of Rare Diseases
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMD) represent the largest and still growing group of treatable genetic disorders and are increasingly amenable to targeted interventions that achieve varying degrees of prognostic improvement. Innovative therapies are on the horizon and offer promising opportunities for disease‐changing treatment for a variety of

Effectiveness of Pyridoxal‐5′‐Phosphate in PNPO Deficiency: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Pyridox(am)ine 5′‐phosphate oxidase (PNPO) deficiency is an ultrarare inherited neurometabolic disease, characterized by primarily neonatal‐onset B6‐responsive epileptic encephalopathies. Treatment often requires sustainable access to high‐quality pyridoxal‐5′‐phosphate (PLP, i.e., active vitamin B6), although some patients (also) respond to ...
