4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective, observational multicenter study to collect blood from patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type IH undergoing laronidase therapy and a stem cell transplant. Sixteen patients will be enrolled over a 24 month period.
This is a standard of care treatment guideline for patients with the diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidosis type IH (MPS I, Hurler syndrome) who are being considered as candidates for first hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) according to a University of Minnesota myeloablative HSCT protocol.
A multi-center randomized clinical trial to compare OTL-203 (gene therapy) with stem cell transplant (standard of care) in patients with MPS-IH (Hurler syndrome).
Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress have been shown to be present in persons with mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I), but their effect on disease severity and disease progression is unknown. The investigator intends to employ brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), a non-invasive technique, along with analysis of neuroinflammation and oxidative stress biomarkers in the blood, to measure and determine the level of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, and their impact on clinical variability in MPS I patients.
