Inclusion Criteria

Each patient had to meet the following criteria to be eligible for the study:

  1. a.) Patients had a documented deficiency in sulfamidase enzyme activity of ≤10% of the lower limit of the normal range as measured in fibroblasts or leukocytes.

    AND either b or c b.) Patients had a normal enzyme activity level of at least 1 other sulfatase (to rule out multiple sulfatase deficiency) as measured in fibroblasts or leukocytes.

    c.) Patients had 2 documented mutations.

  2. The patient was ≥3 years of age and had a developmental age ≥1 year.
  3. Patients must have been medically stable, in the opinion of the Investigator, to accommodate the protocol requirements, including travel, assessments, and IDDD surgery, without placing an undue burden on the patient/patient's family.
  4. The patient's parent(s) or legal guardian must have voluntarily signed an Institutional Review Board/Independent Ethics Committee-approved informed consent form after all relevant aspects of the study have been explained and discussed with the patient, the patient's parent(s), or legal guardian. The patients, patient's parents or legal guardian's consent and patient's assent as appropriate, must have been obtained.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients who met any of the following criteria were excluded from the study:

  1. The patient had significant non-MPS IIIA related CNS impairment or behavioral disturbances that would confound the scientific integrity or interpretation of study assessments, as determined by the investigator.
  2. The patient had MPS IIIA behavioral-related issues, as determined by the investigator, that would have precluded performance of study neurocognitive and developmental testing procedures
  3. The patient was pregnant, breast feeding, or was a female patient of childbearing potential who would not or could not comply with the use of an acceptable method of birth control such as condoms, barrier method, oral contraception, etc.
  4. The patient was blind and/or deaf.
  5. The patient had any known or suspected hypersensitivity to anesthesia or was thought to have an unacceptably high risk for anesthesia due to airway compromise or other conditions.

  10. The patient had a history of poorly controlled seizure disorder.
  11. The patient was currently receiving psychotropic or other medications, which in the investigator's opinion, would have been likely to substantially confound test results and the dose and regimen of which cannot be kept constant throughout the study.
  12. The patient could not sustain absence from aspirin, non-steroidal medications, or medications that affected blood clotting within 1 week prior to a relevant study related procedure (eg, device implantation if applicable), or had ingested such medications within 1 week before any procedures in which any change in clotting activity would have been deleterious.
  13. The patient had received treatment with any investigational drug or a device intended as a treatment for MPS IIIA within the 30 days prior to, or during the study, or was enrolled in another study that involved an investigational drug or device (screening through safety follow-up contact).
  14. The patient received a hematopoietic stem cell or bone marrow transplant.
  15. The patient's parent(s), or patient's legal guardian(s) was/were unable to provide consent or the patient could not provide assent, as appropriate, due to, but not limited to, the inability to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study, or did not agree to comply with the protocol defined schedule of assessments.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Developmental Quotient (DQ) Using Bayley Scales of Infant Development Third Edition (BSID III) and Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children Second Edition (KABC II) at Week 22
BSID-III was used to assess the motor (fine and gross), language (receptive and expressive), and cognitive development of infants and toddlers. This measure consists of a series of developmental play tasks. Raw scores of successfully completed items are converted to scale scores and to composite scores. The mean composite score is 100 and the standard deviation (SD) is 15.Higher scores are indicative of decreased development. KABC-II was an individually administered measure of the processing and reasoning abilities of children and adolescents between the ages of 3 and 18 years and is an alternative to BSID-III. BSID-III DQ score was based on the Cognitive domain. The DQ score was calculated from the data obtained from either BSID-III/KABC-II mental age equivalent of the child in months divided by the calendar age in months (multiplied by 100 to give percentage points).

It is an instrument that supports the diagnosis of intellectual and developmental disabilities in participants. This test measures 5 key domains: communication, daily living skills, socialization, motor skills, and the adaptive behavior composite (a composite of the other four domains). Scoring is 'Usually' = 2, 'Sometimes'/Partially' = 1 or 'Never' = 0. The raw scores will be converted to domain standard scores (mean 100, SD 15). Higher scores indicate undesirable behavior. The Overall DQ score was calculated from the mean age-equivalent score obtained by averaging out the age equivalent scores for all the sub-domains except for Gross and Fine motor skills.
Change From Baseline in Movement Assessment Battery for Children Second Edition (MABC-2) at Week 26 (EOS)
Movement Assessment Battery for Children, Second Edition (MABC-II) was to be used to identify, describe and guide the treatment of motor impairment in children from 3.0 to 16:11 years of age. As per statistical analysis plan, the outcome was to be assessed only if greater than (>) 50 percent (%) of participants were available for the evaluation.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Sanfilippo syndrome, or Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) III, is a rare lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by loss in activity of 1 of 4 enzymes necessary for degradation of the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) heparan sulfate (HS) in lysosomes. MPS IIIA results from deficiency of the enzyme heparan N-sulfatase (sulfamidase). MPS IIIA symptoms arise on average at 7 months of age, with the average age of diagnosis at 4.5 years for the majority of patients. The central nervous system (CNS) is the most severely affected organ system in patients with MPS IIIA, evidenced by deficits in language development, motor skills, and intellectual development. In addition, there are abnormal behaviors including but not limited to aggression and excess motor activity/hyperactivity that contribute to disturbances in sleep.Overall, individuals with MPS IIIA have a marked developmental delay and significantly reduced lifespan of 15 years of age on average. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of rhHNS via ascending doses administered via an a surgically implanted intrathecal drug delivery device (IDDD) intrathecal (IT) route once monthly (or every two weeks) for 6 months in patients with MPS IIIA.
Detailed Description
No effective, disease-modifying therapies are currently approved as treatments for this devastating and disabling disease. Shire Human Genetic Therapies (Shire HGT) is developing a sulfamidase enzyme replacement therapy (ERT)rhHNS for patients with MPS IIIA. recombinant human heparan-N-sulfatase (rhHNS) is being administered into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) via an surgically implanted intrathecal drug delivery device (IDDD), because when administered intravenously (IV) it does not cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). This study is a multicenter, multiple-dose, dose escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of up to 3 dose levels (10mg,45mg and 90mg monthly for 6 months) of rhHNS administered via an IDDD in patients with Sanfilippo syndrome Type A ages greater than or equal to 3 years of age. Patients who have completed all study requirements in this study will be invited to participate in an open-label extension study that will be designed to evaluate long term safety and clinical outcomes of intrathecal administration of rhHNS.

Title
Change From Baseline in Quality of Life (QoL) Using Children's Sleep Habits Rating Scale at Week 22 and Week 26 (EOS)
Description
Children's sleep habits rating scale consisting of 35 item parent questionnaire sleep screening tool. Items are scored on a 3-point scale from 1 (rarely) to 3 (usually) with a Total Sleep Disturbance score (TSDS) ranging from 35-105. Eight subscale scores are totaled to create the TSDS. The subscales are: Bedtime Resistance (BR)(6 items, score = 6-18), Sleep Duration (SD)(3 items, score = 3-9), Parasomnias (P)(7 items, score = 7-21), Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB)(3 items, score = 3-9), Night Waking (NW)(3 items, score = 3-9), Daytime Sleepiness (DS)(8 items, score = 8-24), Sleep Anxiety (SA)(4 items, score = 4-12), and Sleep Onset Delay (SOD)(1 item, score = 1-3). The questionnaire was designed for children aged 4 through 12 years. A higher score is indicative of more disturbed sleep.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria Each patient had to meet the following criteria to be eligible for the study: a.) Patients had a documented deficiency in sulfamidase enzyme activity of ≤10% of the lower limit of the normal range as measured in fibroblasts or leukocytes. AND either b or c b.) Patients had a normal enzyme activity level of at least 1 other sulfatase (to rule out multiple sulfatase deficiency) as measured in fibroblasts or leukocytes. c.) Patients had 2 documented mutations. The patient was ≥3 years of age and had a developmental age ≥1 year. Patients must have been medically stable, in the opinion of the Investigator, to accommodate the protocol requirements, including travel, assessments, and IDDD surgery, without placing an undue burden on the patient/patient's family. The patient's parent(s) or legal guardian must have voluntarily signed an Institutional Review Board/Independent Ethics Committee-approved informed consent form after all relevant aspects of the study have been explained and discussed with the patient, the patient's parent(s), or legal guardian. The patients, patient's parents or legal guardian's consent and patient's assent as appropriate, must have been obtained. Exclusion Criteria Patients who met any of the following criteria were excluded from the study: The patient had significant non-MPS IIIA related CNS impairment or behavioral disturbances that would confound the scientific integrity or interpretation of study assessments, as determined by the investigator. The patient had MPS IIIA behavioral-related issues, as determined by the investigator, that would have precluded performance of study neurocognitive and developmental testing procedures The patient was pregnant, breast feeding, or was a female patient of childbearing potential who would not or could not comply with the use of an acceptable method of birth control such as condoms, barrier method, oral contraception, etc. The patient was blind and/or deaf. The patient had any known or suspected hypersensitivity to anesthesia or was thought to have an unacceptably high risk for anesthesia due to airway compromise or other conditions. The patient or the patient's family had a history of neuroleptic malignant syndrome, malignant hyperthermia, or other anesthesia-related concerns. The investigator may have chosen to exclude patients who have had complications resulting from prior lumbar punctures. The patient had a CNS shunt. The patient had skeletomuscular/spinal abnormalities or other contraindications for the surgical implantation of the IDDD. The patient had a history of poorly controlled seizure disorder. The patient was currently receiving psychotropic or other medications, which in the investigator's opinion, would have been likely to substantially confound test results and the dose and regimen of which cannot be kept constant throughout the study. The patient could not sustain absence from aspirin, non-steroidal medications, or medications that affected blood clotting within 1 week prior to a relevant study related procedure (eg, device implantation if applicable), or had ingested such medications within 1 week before any procedures in which any change in clotting activity would have been deleterious. The patient had received treatment with any investigational drug or a device intended as a treatment for MPS IIIA within the 30 days prior to, or during the study, or was enrolled in another study that involved an investigational drug or device (screening through safety follow-up contact). The patient received a hematopoietic stem cell or bone marrow transplant. The patient's parent(s), or patient's legal guardian(s) was/were unable to provide consent or the patient could not provide assent, as appropriate, due to, but not limited to, the inability to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study, or did not agree to comply with the protocol defined schedule of assessments.
