A Prospective Natural History Study of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB (MPS IIIB)

October 24, 2022 updated by: Allievex Corporation
This is a natural history study for children up to 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB (MPS IIIB, also known as Sanfilippo Syndrome Type B). Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB is a severe neurodegenerative disorder. The information gathered from this trial may help inform the design and interpretation of subsequent interventional studies. No clinical intervention or study drug is provided by Allievex in this study.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

No older than 14 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Males and Females with a documented diagnosis of MPSIIIB

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have deficient NAGLU enzyme activity at Baseline. Blood for NAGLU enzyme activity will be collected and analyzed centrally.
  • Is up to 18 years of age
  • Written informed consent from parent or legal guardian and assent from subject, if required
  • Has the ability to comply with protocol requirements, in the opinion of the investigator

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Has another neurological illness that may have caused cognitive decline (e.g., trauma, meningitis, or hemorrhage) before study entry
  • Has received stem cell, gene therapy, or enzyme replacement therapy for MPS IIIB
  • Has received any investigational medication within 30 days prior to the Baseline visit or is scheduled to receive any investigational drug during the course of the study
  • Has a medical condition or extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, might compromise the subject's ability to comply with protocol requirements, the subject's wellbeing or safety, or the interpretability of the subject's clinical data.
  • Is currently participating in another natural history study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Neurocognitive function
Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
A neurodevelopmental assessment will be performed using standardized developmental tests to provide quantifiable measures of neurocognitive function.
Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Behavioral function
Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Disease-related behaviors will be assessed using an MPS IIIB specific behavior rating scale.
Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Quality of Life Tests
Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Multiple QoL tools will be used to capture physical, mental, and social well-being of the patient as well as to examine the impact of the patient's disease on the parent/guardian and family.
Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Sleep habits
Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Patient sleep habits will be assessed using Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaires (CSHQ).
Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Disease-specific Biomarkers
Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks
Urine sample for glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and creatinine.

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
