Observational Study of Pompe Disease and ERT Response
This observational study is looking at how people with Pompe disease respond to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) using alglucosidase alfa (Myozyme/Lumizyme). Researchers want to understand the long-term effects of this treatment and how a patient's natural ability to produce the GAA enzyme (called CRIM status) affects their response. They are also studying how the immune system reacts to the treatment and new ways to manage these reactions. You may be able to join if you have a confirmed diagnosis of infantile, atypical, or juvenile onset Pompe disease. The study will measure how well patients respond to ERT over many years.
- Study design
- This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 400 participants. It is a longitudinal natural history study, meaning researchers will follow participants over a long period.
- What's involved
- Researchers will regularly collect and review your medical information, including diagnosis, clinical parameters, monitoring assessments, and laboratory values like antibody test results. The record does not specify the frequency or type of visits or procedures.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for clinical response to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for up to 18 years.

What this trial measures
- Clinical response to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) using alglucosidase alfa (Myozyme)Up to 18 years
Medical records will be tracked until the patient reaches the age of 18 years to follow clinical response to ERT. This will allow us to gain an understanding of CRIM status in relation to clinical outcomes and development for these subjects.
