Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate oral genistein aglycone therapy in patients between 2 and 15 years old with MPS III A, B or C;Secondary Objective: Following 52 weeks of treatment are there changes in urinary GAG excretion; urine and plasma heparan sulphate; neuropsychological measures; actigraphy.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint will be CSF heparan sulphate at 52 weeks, adjusted for baseline, in patients allocated to drug compared with patients allocated to placebo.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: CSF samples will be collected at weeks 0, 52 and analysed. They will also be collected and analysed following the 52 week open label phase.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Urinary GAG excretion at 52 weeks. Urinary and plasma heparan sulphate at 52 weeks. Neuropsychological measures, including the Vineland adaptive behaviour Questionnaire; Connors questionnaire; Bayley scale III; and MPS III symptom checklist at 52 weeks. Actigraphy at 52 weeks. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: These endpoints will be evaluated at 0 and 52 weeks, and following the 52 week open label phase
