Who can take part

AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for adults with adult-onset Pompe disease who carry the c.-32-13T>G change in the GAA gene and can still walk. They are followed for two years.

Age
18 to 80 years
Sex
All sexes can join
Disease stage
Adult-onset Pompe disease. People must be able to walk: six-minute walk test distance of more than 50 m.
Biomarker or test result
c.-32-13T>G mutation in at least one copy of the GAA gene

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Invasive mechanical ventilation
  • Pregnancy
  • Other diseases such as chronic infections (HIV, hepatitis), asthma, cancer or blood diseases
  • Taking part in another clinical trial
  • Life expectancy under 12 months

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The project is a prospective study in which patients affected by adult-onset Pompe disease with c.-32-13T>G mutation in the GAA gene will be followed-up during two years to describe the natural history using clinical, imaging, histological and molecular parameters.

Secondary objectives are:

* To identify biomarkers for assessing efficacy of future therapies based on correcting aberrant alternative splicing in Pompe patients with c.-32-13T>G mutations. * To determine effectiveness of antisense oligonucleotide chemistries to restore full length GAA transcripts, GAA protein and GAA enzyme activity in fibroblasts and myoblasts obtained from skin and muscle biopsies as well as leucocytes of Pompe patients with c.-32-13T>G mutations.

Questions to ask the study team

  1. How often do I need to come in, and for how long each time?
  2. Are travel costs paid?
  3. Can I keep my own doctor?
  4. What happens if I want to stop?
