Summary
This trialwill assess safety & effectiveness of a drug for up to 4 years in people newly diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder. Visits every other week & potentially every week.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for babies with infantile-onset Pompe disease who haven't been treated before. They must have a confirmed diagnosis, known CRIM status, and cardiomyopathy. Babies can't join if they've been in avalglucosidase alfa trials, have major birth defects unrelated to Pompe disease, other serious diseases, or are on ventilation.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of a drug called avalglucosidase alfa in babies with Pompe Disease over up to 4 years. It includes regular visits every week or two for doses and monitoring how well the treatment works and its effects on the body.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typical reactions may include immune responses to the medication (like allergies), potential organ-specific issues due to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), infusion-related reactions, and general discomfort.
