Trends in Serum Cytokine Expression in Pediatric Skeletal Dysplasia
We identified differences in cytokine expression in multiple types of pediatric skeletal dysplasia as compared to typically growing children. Four of the 12 analyzed cytokines demonstrated elevated expression above control levels in all of the dysplasia cohorts (IL‐12, IL‐13, IP‐10, RANTES) and 2 demonstrated expression below control levels across all ...

Dose selection for biological enzyme replacement therapy indicated for inborn errors of metabolism
Abstract This paper summarizes key features of the dose‐finding strategies used in the development of 11 approved new molecular entities that are first‐in‐class enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), with a goal to gain insight into the dose exploration approaches to inform efficient dose‐finding in future development of biological products for Inborn ...

Advances in therapies for neurological lysosomal storage disorders
Abstract Lysosomal Storage Disorders (LSDs) are a diverse group of inherited, monogenic diseases caused by functional defects in specific lysosomal proteins. The lysosome is a cellular organelle that plays a critical role in catabolism of waste products and recycling of macromolecules in the body.

Orthopedic management of the extremities in patients with Morquio A syndrome. [PDF]
BackgroundMusculoskeletal involvement in Morquio A syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis IVA; MPS IVA) contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality. While the spinal manifestations of the disorder have received considerable attention in the literature,

Abstract Oligosaccharidoses, sphingolipidoses and mucolipidoses are lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in which defective breakdown of glycan‐side chains of glycosylated proteins and glycolipids leads to the accumulation of incompletely degraded oligosaccharides within lysosomes. In metabolic laboratories, these disorders are commonly diagnosed by thin‐

Impact of elosulfase alfa in patients with morquio A syndrome who have limited ambulation: An open-label, phase 2 study. [PDF]
Efficacy and safety of elosulfase alfa enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) were assessed in an open-label, phase 2, multi-national study in Morquio A patients aged ≥5 years unable to walk ≥30 meters in the 6-min walk test.

Recommendations for the management of MPS IVA: systematic evidence- and consensus-based guidance. [PDF]
IntroductionMucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA or Morquio A syndrome is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, which impairs lysosomal degradation of keratan ...

Abstract Rare diseases represent a highly heterogeneous group of disorders with high phenotypic and genotypic diversity within individual conditions. Due to the small numbers of people affected, there are unique challenges in understanding rare diseases and drug development for these conditions, including patient identification and recruitment, trial ...
