Dose selection for intracerebroventricular cerliponase alfa in children with CLN2 disease, translation from animal to human in a rare genetic disease

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1810-1821, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2 disease) is an ultra‐rare pediatric neurodegenerative disorder characterized by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme tripeptidyl peptidase‐1 (TPP1). In the absence of adequate TPP1, lysosomal storage material accumulation occurs in the central nervous system (CNS) accompanied by neurodegeneration and ...

Intravenous arylsulfatase A in metachromatic leukodystrophy: a phase 1/2 study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 66-80, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Objective Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by deficient activity of arylsulfatase A (ASA), resulting in severe motor and cognitive dysfunction. This phase 1/2 study evaluated the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) recombinant human ASA (rhASA; HGT‐1111, previously known as ...
