Conditions

Pompe Disease (Infantile-Onset), Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSD II), Glycogenosis 2, Acid Maltase Deficiency

Brief summary

A study to demonstrate comparable safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of alglucosidase alfa manufactured at the 160 litre (L) and 4000 L scales in participants who had been diagnosed with infantile-onset Pompe disease. Participants were treated with alglucosidase alfa 160 L scale product in the United States (US) and 4000 L scale product in the regions outside the US.

Interventions

Intravenous (IV) infusion of alglucosidase alfa (4000 L material) 20 mg/kg every other week (QOW)

Inclusion criteria

* The participant's parent/legal guardian was willing and able to provide signed informed consent. * The participant might be less than or equal to 12 months of age. * The participant might have documented GAA enzyme deficiency from blood, skin, or muscle tissue. * The participant might be naïve to treatment with alglucosidase alfa.

Exclusion criteria

* The participant was cross-reactive immunologic material negative. * The participant required invasive ventilator support at the time of enrollment. * The participant had decompensated clinical heart failure. * The participant had a major congenital abnormality, excluding cardiac hypertrophy. * The participant had a clinically significant organ disease (excluding the signs and symptoms of Pompe disease). * The participant was currently receiving any investigational product. * The participant was participating in another clinical study. * The participant and/or the patient's parent/legal guardian was unable to adhere to the requirements of the study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Cardiac Function at Week 52Baseline, Week 52Cardiac function was measured by the left ventricular mass Z-score (LVM-Z). Z-Scores indicate the number of standard deviations (SD) from the mean in a normal distribution. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease and positive change from baseline indicates an increase in LVM Z-score. The normal range is -2 to 2 and greater than 2 may indicate left ventricular hypertrophy.

Number of Participants With Invasive Ventilator-Free SurvivalUp to Week 52Invasive ventilator-free survival was defined as the time during which the participant is alive and not invasively ventilated. Number of Participants with invasive ventilator-free survival were reported.
Change From Baseline in Motor Development Status at Week 52Baseline, Week 52Motor development status was assessed by the Gross Motor Function Measure - 88 Scale (GMFM-88) total percent scores. GMFM-88 is an 88-item measure to detect gross motor function. It consists of 5 categories: lying and rolling; sitting; crawling and kneeling; standing; walking, running and jumping. Each item was scored on a 4-point Likert scale (0 = cannot do; 1 = initiates \[\<10% of the task\]; 2 = partially completes \[10% to \<100% of the task\]; 3 = task completion). The score for each dimension was expressed as a percentage of the maximum score for that dimension. Total score ranges from 0% to 100%, where higher scores indicate better motor functions.

Outcome results

Primary

Change From Baseline in Cardiac Function at Week 52

Cardiac function was measured by the left ventricular mass Z-score (LVM-Z). Z-Scores indicate the number of standard deviations (SD) from the mean in a normal distribution. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease and positive change from baseline indicates an increase in LVM Z-score. The normal range is -2 to 2 and greater than 2 may indicate left ventricular hypertrophy.

Time frame: Baseline, Week 52

Population: Full analysis population defined as all participants who receive at least 1 infusion of alglucosidase alfa. For this endpoint no participants were analyzed in 'Algucosidase Alfa 4000 L material' arm at Baseline and Week 52. One participant from 'Algucosidase Alfa 160 L Material' arm was discontinued from study at Week 31 due to physician's decision
