| E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
| E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
| Pompe disease (glycogen storage disease type II) is a genetic, lysosomal storage disorder with a frequency of 1 in 40.000 newborns. The disease is caused by deficiency of alpha-glucosidase, a lysosomal hydrolase involved in the degradation of glycogen. |
|
| MedDRA Classification |
| E.1.3 | Condition being studied is a rare disease | Yes |
| E.2 Objective of the trial |
| E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
| The objective of the study is to gather more information about the long-term effect of enzyme therapy in patients with Pompe disease with a different severity of disease. The goal is also to set guideline for start and stop of treatment and to evaluate health economic aspects. Furthermore, it is important to find an optimal dosing regimen. |
|
| E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
|
| E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
| E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Patients should have a proven diagnosis of Pompe disease, which means that the diagnosis is confirmed by deficiency of a-glucosidase activity in leukocytes or skeletal muscle, or by a documented mutation in the a-glucosidase gene. 2. The patient must have symptoms of Pompe disease being: Signs of skeletal muscle weakness, or decreased pulmonary function (FVC < 80% in sitting position), or Cardiac hypertrophy
|
|
| E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
| Patients who are not likely to benefit from treatment |
|
| E.5 End points |
| E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
- Survival - Muscle strength and function - Motor and mental outcome - Pulmonary function - Cardiac hypertrophy and function - Hearing loss - Disease specific symptoms, handicap, quality of life and fatigue - Muscle mass and regeneration - Costs |
