Natural History of Sphingosine Phosphate Lyase Insufficiency Syndrome (SPLIS)

Description

This is a prospective longitudinal natural history study with a retrospective cross-sectional arm aimed at determining the natural history of sphingosine phosphate lyase insufficiency syndrome (SPLIS), a recently recognized inborn error of metabolism. The central hypothesis is that age of onset, other disease features, and disease biomarkers will be predictive of quality of life (QOL) and survival in SPLIS patients.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • 1. Living or deceased patients diagnosed with SPLIS based on
  • 1. harbor biallelic pathogenic variant (PV) or likely PV (LPV) in the SGPL1 gene, regardless of phenotype OR
  • 2. harbor nucleotide changes in both SGPL1 alleles, regardless of variant classification, if they also have one of the following: b1) exhibit at least 1 phenotypic feature of SPLIS (nephrosis, endocrine defect, ichthyosis, neuropathy, male gonadal dysgenesis, lymphopenia) b2) have evidence from biochemical or molecular data (such as enzyme expression or activity in skin fibroblasts) that indicate a possible loss of function in the S1P lyase (SPL) protein b3) are a sibling of a subject with nucleotide changes in both alleles of SGPL1 and at least 1 phenotypic feature of SPLIS
  • 2. Informed consent and (if appropriate) assent for living subjects. For deceased subjects, the Principal Investigator (PI) will be responsible for ensuring that all requirements have been met in regard to the relevant local laws and regulations. Parents of participating SPLIS patients may be included as controls.
