23 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The primary outcome of this study is the development of a clinical profile of pediatric patients with LAL-D, which will enable the Sponsor to provide more focused guidance to the medical community as to which pediatric patients should be tested for LAL-D.
This was an open-label, repeat-dose, study of sebelipase alfa in infants with rapidly progressive lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D). Eligible participants received once-weekly infusions of sebelipase alfa for up to 3 years.
This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of sebelipase alfa in a broad population of participants with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D).
This Phase 3 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of 1 milligram/kilogram (mg/kg) intravenous (IV) infusions of SBC-102 (sebelipase alfa) administered every other week (qow) in participants with late onset lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D) (cholesteryl ester storage disease \[CESD\]). Late-onset LAL-D is an underappreciated cause of cirrhosis, liver failure and dyslipidemia. There is currently no standard treatment for LAL-D other than supportive care. Enzyme replacement therapy may be a potential new treatment option for LAL-D participants.
Partners HealthCare maintains a Patient Data Registry (PDR) with information from all patient encounters at Partners HealthCare facilities. We intend to utilize the PDR to identify groups of patient who are of high clinical suspicion for undiagnosed lysosomal acid lipase deficiency. A group of potential participants will be identified through the PDR. Detailed records will be requested to further narrow to ideal participants based upon previously existing diagnoses and symptoms. Participants will be invited to partake in the study via a letter from their Partners care provider with supporting study details. Study participants will be evaluated in a one-time visit. A complete family and medical history will be collected. A physical exam will be performed, and up to 20cc of blood will be drawn. All participants will be notified of their disease status via letter and phone call from the study staff. If the study participant is diagnosed with LALD through this evaluation, proper follow-up recommendations and referrals will be provided. Our intent is to determine if existing patient data can successfully be utilized to aid in the identification of patients with rare genetic disease.
This is an observational, multi-center, international disease registry designed to collect longitudinal data and create a knowledge base that will be utilized to improve the care and treatment of patients with LAL Deficiency. Participation in the Registry by both physicians and patients is voluntary.
This is a Natural History study to characterize key aspects of the clinical course of late onset Lysosomal Acid Lipase (LAL) Deficiency/ Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD).
This was an extension study to Study LAL-CL01 (NCT01307098). The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of sebelipase alfa in participants with liver dysfunction due to lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) deficiency.
This was an open-label, repeat-dose, intra-participant dose-escalation study of SBC-102 (sebelipase alfa) in children with growth failure due to lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) Deficiency. Eligible participants received once-weekly (qw) infusions of sebelipase alfa for up to 5 years.
This is a Natural History study to characterize key aspects of the clinical course of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) deficiency/Wolman phenotype in patients.
This was the first clinical study of SBC-102 (sebelipase alfa) for the treatment of Lysosomal Acid Lipase (LAL) Deficiency. It was an open-label dose escalation study in adult participants with liver dysfunction due to LAL Deficiency and was designed to examine 3 doses of sebelipase alfa. The targeted number for this study was 9 evaluable participants.
The purpose of this study are: to characterize and understand the natural history of disease progression in WD and CESD, and to provide historical controls for WD and CESD for developing clinical treatment trials. The hypothesis is that the variability and clinical progression in WD and CESD is large and represents a continuum of severities from a lethal infantile to near normal adults with only "fatty livers".
The objective of this study is to determine the frequency of Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency (LAL D) by lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) enzyme activity assay in patients who are considered to be at risk.
ScreenPlus is a consented, multi-disorder pilot newborn screening program implemented in conjunction with the New York State Newborn Screening Program that provides families the option to have their newborn(s) screened for a panel of additional conditions. The study has three primary objectives: 1) define the analytic and clinical validity of multi-tiered screening assays for a flexible panel of disorders, 2) determine disease incidence in an ethnically diverse population, and 3) assess the impact of early diagnosis on health outcomes. Over a five-year period, ScreenPlus aims to screen 100,000 infants born in nine high birthrate, ethnically diverse pilot hospitals in New York for a flexible panel of 14 rare genetic disorders. This study will also involve an evaluation of the Ethical, Legal and Social issues pertaining to NBS for complex disorders, which will be done via online surveys that will be directed towards ScreenPlus parents who opt to participate and qualitative interviews with families of infants who are identified through ScreenPlus.
This is an international prospective and retrospective registry of patients with Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSDs) to understand the natural history of the disease and the outcomes of fetal therapies, with the overall goal of improving the prenatal management of patients with LSDs.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety of human placental-derived stem cells (HPDSC) given in conjunction with umbilical cord blood (UCB) stem cells in patients with various malignant or nonmalignant disorders who require a stem cell transplant. Patients will get either full dose (high-intensity) or lower dose (low intensity) chemo- and immunotherapy followed by a stem cell transplantation with UCB and HPDSC.
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the ability to achieve and sustain donor engraftment in patients with lysosomal and peroxisomal inborn errors of metabolism undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT).
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has proven effective therapy for individuals with adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) or globoid cell leukodystrophy (GLD, or Krabbe disease). This protocol also considers other inherited metabolic diseases such as, but not limited to, GM1 gangliosidosis, Tay Sachs disease, Sanfilippo syndrome or Sandhoff disease, I-cell disease (mucolipidosis II). For patients with advanced or rapidly progressive disease, the morbidity and mortality with transplantation is unacceptably high. Unfortunately, there are no viable alternative therapeutic options for these patients; if transplantation is not performed the patients are sent home to die. Our group at Minnesota has developed a new protocol incorporating transplantation using a reduced intensity conditioning regimen designed to decrease toxicity associated with the transplant procedure. This regimen will make use of the drug clofarabine, which has lympholytic and immune suppressive properties without the neurologic toxicity observed in the related compound, fludarabine, commonly used for transplantation. In addition, several agents providing anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties will be used to assist in the stabilization of the disease processes. This revised transplant protocol will test the following: 1) the ability to achieve engraftment with the reduced intensity protocol, 2) the mortality associated with transplant by day 100, 3) patient outcomes, based on differential neurologic, neuropsychologic, imaging and biologic evaluations prior to transplantation and at designated points after transplantation (day 100, 6 months, 1, 2 and 5 years). Additional biologic studies will include pharmacokinetics of clofarabine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). In addition, for patients undergoing lumbar puncture studies, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) will be requested for determinations of biologic parameters.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and engraftment of donor hematopoietic cells using this conditioning regimen in patients undergoing a hematopoietic (blood forming) cell transplant for an inherited metabolic storage disease.
OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from pediatric patients with storage disorders prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the presence of proinflammatory cytokines and for the production of nitric oxide by alveolar macrophages to identify possible risk factors for pulmonary complications. II. Investigate the underlying mechanism for the development of significant pulmonary complications in these patients during HSCT. III. Evaluate bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum obtained from these same patients at the time a pulmonary complication develops post-HSCT, or at 60 days post-HSCT if there has been no pulmonary complications.
This 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.
Early Check provides voluntary screening of newborns for a selected panel of conditions. The study has three main objectives: 1) develop and implement an approach to identify affected infants, 2) address the impact on infants and families who screen positive, and 3) evaluate the Early Check program. The Early Check screening will lead to earlier identification of newborns with rare health conditions in addition to providing important data on the implementation of this model program. Early diagnosis may result in health and development benefits for the newborns. Infants who have newborn screening in North Carolina will be eligible to participate, equating to over 120,000 eligible infants a year. Over 95% of participants are expected to screen negative. Newborns who screen positive and their parents are invited to additional research activities and services. Parents can enroll eligible newborns on the Early Check electronic Research Portal. Screening tests are conducted on residual blood from existing newborn screening dried blood spots. Confirmatory testing is provided free-of-charge for infants who screen positive, and carrier testing is provided to mothers of infants with fragile X. Affected newborns have a physical and developmental evaluation. Their parents have genetic counseling and are invited to participate in surveys and interviews. Ongoing evaluation of the program includes additional parent interviews.
