Identification and Characterization of Novel Non-Coding Variants That Contribute to Genetic Disorders...
Genetic DiseaseInborn Errors of Metabolism3 moreThe goal of this study is to identify and characterize novel non-coding and splicing variants that may contribute to genetic disorders. We will particularly focus on patients with a diagnosed genetic disorder that has inconclusive genetic findings.
A Fabry Disease Gene Therapy Study
Fabry DiseaseLysosomal Storage DiseasesThis is a multinational, open-label study to assess the safety and efficacy of FLT190 in up to 15 adult male participants with classical Fabry disease.
Intrathecal Enzyme Replacement Therapy for Spinal Cord Compression in Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS)...
Mucopolysaccharidosis ILysosomal Storage Diseases1 moreThe investigators are studying the use of enzyme replacement therapy into the spinal fluid for treatment of spinal cord compression in the Hurler-Scheie and Scheie forms of mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I). Funding source -- FDA OOPD
Extension Study of Intrathecal Enzyme Replacement Therapy for MPS I
Spinal Cord CompressionMucopolysaccharidosis I3 moreThis is a one-year extension study of the use of laronidase into the spinal fluid to treat spinal cord compression in mucopolysaccharidosis I. Mucopolysaccharidosis I is a rare genetic condition due to deficiency of the enzyme alpha-l-iduronidase. Spinal cord compression occurs in this condition due to accumulation of material called glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Laronidase is the manufactured form of the enzyme alpha-l-iduronidase that is deficient in mucopolysaccharidosis I patients. The aim of this study is to determine whether laronidase is safe and effective when given into the spinal fluid as a potential non-surgical treatment for spinal cord compression due to mucopolysaccharidosis I disease.

ALD-101 Adjuvant Therapy of Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood Transfusion (UCBT) in Patients With Inherited...
Inherited Metabolic DiseasesLysosomal Storage Disorders3 moreEligible research subjects will receive an unrelated umbilical cord blood transfusion as a possible cure for their inherited metabolic disease. A portion of cord blood cells (ALD-101) will be separated from the cord blood unit and given approximately 4 hours after the standard cord blood transfusion. The study will test if the supplemental cells will increase the speed at which normal levels of circulating blood cells are re-established after transplant.
A Study of Intrathecal Enzyme Therapy for Cognitive Decline in MPS I
Cognitive DeclineMucopolysaccharidosis I3 moreThis is a 24-month study of the use of laronidase administered into the spinal fluid to treat cognitive decline in mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I). MPS I is a rare genetic condition due to deficiency of the enzyme alpha-l-iduronidase. Laronidase is the manufactured form of the enzyme alpha-l-iduronidase. MPS I is a heterogeneous disease with several clinical phenotypes ranging from the most severe, Hurler syndrome, to the attenuated forms, Hurler-Scheie and Scheie. Although patients with milder forms of MPS I may not have grossly observable problems with cognition, these patients do have learning difficulties that are apparent in school and with neuropsychological testing. The goal of this study is to evaluate whether intrathecal recombinant human alpha-l-iduronidase (rhIDU) injections can stabilize or improve cognitive decline in individuals with MPS I.
Diet and Exercise in Pompe Disease
Pompe DiseaseGlycogen Storage Disease Type II1 moreThis study examines the effects of individualized diet and exercise plans on muscle strength, quality of life and respiratory function in Pompe disease. Subjects will be given a diet and exercise plan based on their individual needs, which will be followed for 16 weeks. Participants will also be provided with an activity tracker in order to track their exercise activities, access to an app that will allow them to input their daily food intake, and they will also come to the University of Florida for exercise tests, respiratory tests and questionnaires.
Reduced Intensity Conditioning for Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant in Pediatric Patients With Non-Malignant...
Non Malignant DisordersImmunodeficiencies6 moreThe primary objective is to determine the feasibility of attaining acceptable rates of donor cell engraftment (>25% donor chimerism at 180 days) following reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in pediatric patients < 21 years receiving cord blood transplantation for non-malignant disorders.
Reduced-Intensity Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant for High Risk Lysosomal and Peroxisomal Disorders...
Lysosomal Storage DiseasePeroxisomal DisorderThis study is designed to test the ability to achieve donor hematopoietic engraftment while maintaining low rates of transplant-related mortality (TRM) in patients with high-risk lysosomal and peroxisomal disorders using a novel conditioning regimen for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). After a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen using volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-delivered low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) with highly conformal marrow boosting, patients will be transplanted using either a related or unrelated allograft. The cell source may be marrow, peripheral blood or cord blood based on donor availability.
Neutralizing Antibody Seroprevalence Study With a Retrospective Component in Participants With Late-Onset...
Pompe DiseasePompe Disease (Late-onset)4 moreThe purpose of this study is to obtain information pertaining to the occurrence of antibodies to investigational SPK-3006 capsid and GAA, GAA activity and GAA antigen levels in the usual care setting of Late-Onset Pompe Disease (LOPD) participants on an enzyme replacement regimen. Additionally, a careful evaluation of laboratory and functional testing in patients with LOPD may provide information to better understand the disease features and better drive the design of a future interventional investigational gene therapy trial. An understanding of the underlying status of liver and muscle health in individuals with LOPD may also inform best surveillance during the conduct of gene therapy trials.
