Resumen

The purpose of this study is evaluate the natural course of disease progression related to gross motor function in children with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).

Descripción detallada

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an inherited, autosomal recessive disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by deficient activity of the lysosomal enzyme, arylsulfatase A (ASA). MLD is a rare genetic disease that occurs in most parts of the world. The estimated overall incidence of the disease in the western world is approximately 1 in 100,000 live births. This study is a multicenter, observational, longitudinal study that plans to enroll up to 30 patients with onset of MLD-related signs and symptoms prior to 30 months of age and who are less than 12 years of age. Patients will participate in this study for approximately 114 weeks (Screening through Follow-up) and will be assessed at defined intervals for disease status.
