Female Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II): Insights From the Hunter Outcome Survey [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis II is a rare, X‐linked disease, with very few reports of affected female patients. Natural history data describe a predominantly male population, and appropriate disease characterization in female patients is lacking.

Evaluation of early treatment with intravenous idursulfase and intrathecal idursulfase-IT on cognitive function in siblings with neuronopathic mucopolysaccharidosis II. [PDF]
Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome; OMIM 309900) is a rare, X‐linked, heterogeneous lysosomal storage disease. Approximately two‐thirds of patients develop cognitive impairment, which is difficult to assess in clinical trials, partly owing to the variable nature of cognitive impairment.

Safety Evaluation of Chronic Intrathecal Administration of Idursulfase-IT in Cynomolgus Monkeys [PDF]
Recombinant human idursulfase, an intravenous enzyme replacement therapy indicated for treatment of somatic symptoms of mucopolysaccharidosis II (Hunter syndrome), is anticipated to have minimal benefit for the cognitive impairment associated with the severe phenotype.

Biodistribution of Idursulfase Formulated for Intrathecal Use (Idursulfase-IT) in Cynomolgus Monkeys after Intrathecal Lumbar Administration. [PDF]
Enzyme replacement therapy with intravenous idursulfase (recombinant iduronate-2-sulfatase) is approved for the treatment of Hunter syndrome. Intravenous administration does not, however, treat the neurological manifestations, due to its low central ...

Intravenous Idursulfase for the Treatment of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II: A Systematic Literature Review [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is a rare, X-linked disorder caused by deficient activity of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase. Signs and symptoms typically emerge at 1.5–4 years of age and may include cognitive impairment ...
