Brief summary

This is a single center pilot study in which Laronidase will be given weekly for two years in patients with Hurler syndrome, also known as mucopolysaccharide IH (MPS I, Hurler syndrome), that have previously been treated with an allogeneic transplant.

Detailed description

This 2-year open-label pilot study of laronidase includes patients (age 5-13 years) who are at least 2 years post-hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and donor engrafted. Outcomes are assessed semi-annually and compared to historic controls. Eligible patients will receive Laronidase as an infusion over several hours once a week at a local site. The dosing of enzyme will be the standard doses recommended by Genzyme. The findings of this Pilot Study will be used to assess whether a subsequent larger study can be conducted.

Interventions

Laronidase 0.58 mg/kg intravenously (IV) once a week for a maximum of 2 years

Percentage of Adherence to the Scheduled Weekly Infusion by the Participants24 monthsTo determine the feasibility of giving weekly Laronidase for 2 years in patients with Hurler syndrome after allogeneic transplantation, compliance throughout the study with drug administration, the percentage of adherence to the scheduled weekly infusion for each participant is measured.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in Peak Heart Rate to Monitor FitnessAssessed from baseline every 6 months through 2 years; change between baseline and 24 months reported.If baseline and/or 24-month data were not available, the longest interval between measurements was reported, with a minimum requirement of 12 monthsA modified Balke Treadmill Test was performed. Briefly, patients began walking at 2.0 mph with a 2% increase in grade every 2 min. A 12-lead electrocardiogram was monitored continuously throughout the test for the determination of heart rate and dysrhythmias or ischemic changes. Heart rate was measured at the end of each stage (i.e. every 2 min) .
Number of Participants Showing Improvements in Joint Range of Motion (ROM)Assessed from baseline every 6 months through 2 years; change between baseline and 24 months reported.If baseline and/or 24-month data were not available, the longest interval between measurements was reported, with a minimum requirement of 12 monthsBilateral shoulder flexion, elbow extension, and hip extension were measured using goniometry. Improvements are defined for all joints as \>5°.

Number of Participants With Changes in Cardiac Echo Structural ParametersBaseline and month 24Pulse-wave and color Doppler interrogation of cardiac valves was performed for determination of valve regurgitation
Correlation of 6 Minute Walk Test With Anti-laronidase Antibody + StatusAssessed from baseline every 6 months through 2 years; change between baseline and 24 months reported.If baseline and/or 24-month data were not available, the longest interval between measurements was reported, with a minimum requirement of 12 months6 minute walk test (6MWT) was performed to assess overall physical function and health status. In brief, a 30m hospital corridor marked by colored tape at each end was used. Subjects were instructed to walk from end to end at their self-selected pace, while attempting to cover as much distance as possible in the 6 min. The patients were instructed to walk around the mark as they changed direction. The time and distance covered was recorded, as was the heart rate prior to and immediately after completion of the walk test. To find the association between the rate of change in 6MWT, and anti drug antibody (ADA) titer, a statistical test is performed adjusting for age at the time of enrollment.
Shortening Fraction to Determine Systolic Cardiac FunctionBaseline and month 24Cardiac ultrasounds were obtained at baseline and month 24. Two-dimensional imaging was obtained for determination of anatomy. Shortening fraction (SF \[normal \> 27%\]) was calculated by standard methods to determine the normal systolic cardiac function
Change in Muscle StrengthAssessed from baseline every 6 months through 2 years; change between baseline and 24 months reported.If baseline and/or 24-month data were not available, the longest interval between measurements was reported, with a minimum requirement of 12 monthsHandgrip strength is measured three times in both hands with a mechanical handheld Biodex System 3 dynamometer (Biodex medical Systems, Inc., Shirley, NY) with the subject in a seated position at each visit; the average for each hand is presented.
