lüll Glycogen storage disease types I and II: treatment updates Koeberl DD; Kishnani PS; Chen YTJ Inherit Metab Dis 2007[Apr]; 30 (2): 159-64Prior to 2006 therapy for glycogen storage diseases consisted primarily of dietary interventions, which in the case of glycogen storage disease (GSD) type II (GSD II; Pompe disease) remained essentially palliative. Despite improved survival and growth, long-term complications of GSD type I (GSD I) have not responded to dietary therapy with uncooked cornstarch or continuous gastric feeding. The recognized significant risk of renal disease and liver malignancy in GSD I has prompted efforts towards curative therapy, including organ transplantation, in those deemed at risk. Results of clinical trials in infantile Pompe disease with alglucosidase alfa (Myozyme) showed prolonged survival reversal of cardiomyopathy, and motor gains. This resulted in broad label approval of Myozyme for Pompe disease in 2006. Furthermore, the development of experimental therapies, such as adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated gene therapy, holds promise for the availability of curative therapy in GSD I and GSD II/Pompe disease in the future.|Animals[MESH]|Genetic Therapy[MESH]|Genetics, Medical/trends[MESH]|Glycogen Storage Disease Type I/complications/surgery/*therapy[MESH]|Glycogen Storage Disease Type II/drug therapy/prevention & control/*therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant, Newborn[MESH]|Kidney Diseases/etiology[MESH]|Liver Neoplasms/etiology[MESH]|Neonatal Screening[MESH]|Organ Transplantation[MESH]|Pediatrics/trends[MESH]|alpha-Glucosidases/therapeutic use[MESH] |
