Intrathecal Enzyme Replacement for Hurler Syndrome

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Hurler Syndrome
Interventions
Drug: IRT Laronidase
Registration Number
NCT00638547
Lead Sponsor
Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota
Brief Summary

This protocol will examine whether the enzyme alpha-L-iduronidase (Laronidase), delivered into the spinal fluid of patients with Hurler syndrome at intervals before and after bone marrow transplant, is a safe and effective approach to slow the neurologic degeneration seen in Hurler patients undergoing transplantation.

Detailed Description

Subjects will receive an infusion of Laronidase into his/her spinal fluid approximately 12 weeks before, 2 weeks before, 100 days after and 6 months after transplant. This procedure is done by lumbar puncture (also called a "spinal tap").
