Search for Serum/Plasma Biomarkers in Pompe's Disease

Conditions
Late Onset Pompe Disease
Pompe Disease
Interventions
Drug: Enzyme Replacement Agent
Registration Number
NCT03045042
Lead Sponsor
Fundació Institut de Recerca de l'Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau
Brief Summary

This study aims to analyze serum and plasma samples from patients with late onset Pompe disease treated and not treated with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) to identify microRNA that could be specific of the disease. The investigators will correlate the concentration of these microRNA with several muscle function tests and quantitative muscle MRI to know whether they are good biomarkers of progression.
