A Feasibility Open-Labeled Clinical Trial Using a Second-Generation Artificial-Intelligence-Based Therapeutic Regimen in Patients with Gaucher Disease Treated with Enzyme Replacement Therapy.

Gaucher Disease type 1 (GD1) is a recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in the enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has become the standard of care for patients with GD. However, over 10% of patients experience an incomplete response or partial loss of response to ERT, necessitating the exploration of alternative approaches to enhance treatment outcomes.

Insights into the Value of Lyso-Gb1 as a Predictive Biomarker in Treatment-Naïve Patients with Gaucher Disease Type 1 in the LYSO-PROOF Study.

Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder arising from bi-allelic variants in the gene, encoding glucocerebrosidase. Deficiency of this enzyme leads to progressive accumulation of the sphingolipid glucosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb1). The international, multicenter, observational "Lyso-Gb1 as a Long-term Prognostic Biomarker in Gaucher Disease"-LYSO-PROOF study succeeded in enrolling a cohort of 160 treatment-naïve GD patients from diverse geographic regions and evaluated the potential of lyso-Gb1 as a specific biomarker for GD.

Rapid home therapy infusion of velaglucerase alfa in naïve patients with Gaucher disease.

Background: Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has revolutionised the management of patients with Gaucher disease (GD). In 2018, we published the safety and efficacy of rapid 10-min infusion of velaglucerase alfa in previously treated patients, mostly on low-dose therapy.

Aim: To improve quality of life (QoL) for patients needing lifelong bi-weekly infusions by introducing a 10-min infusion instead of 1 h per label in patients naive to ERT and on high-dose therapy.

Contribution of Glucosylsphingosine (Lyso-Gb1) to Treatment Decisions in Patients with Gaucher Disease.

Glucosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb1), the deacylated form of glucocerebroside, was shown to be the most specific and sensitive biomarker for diagnosing Gaucher disease (GD). The aim of this study is to assess the contribution of lyso-Gb1 at the time of diagnosis for treatment decisions in naïve patients with GD. Newly diagnosed patients from July 2014 to November 2022 were included in this retrospective cohort study.
