Summary
This trial is studying Pompe disease, a genetic condition that causes muscle weakness. People with Pompe disease have a faulty gene that produces an enzyme called GAA. Without this enzyme, there is a build-up
Who is the study for?
This study is for older teens and adults with late-onset Pompe disease, a condition causing muscle weakness. Participants either have never had enzyme replacement therapy or have been on it for at least 6 months. They must be able to attend study visits and agree not to join other clinical trials during this one.
What is being tested?
The study isn't testing a new treatment but is looking at antibody levels against AAV8 (a harmless virus used in gene therapy) and the GAA enzyme involved in standard Pompe disease treatment. It also measures biomarkers related to the disease through regular blood and urine tests over two years.
What are the potential side effects?
Since there's no intervention being tested, such as a new drug or therapy, participants are not expected to experience side effects from the study itself. The focus is on monitoring existing conditions rather than introducing potential causes of side effects.
