Efficacy of Intravenous Elosulfase Alfa for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVA: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA or Morquio A), a lysosomal storage disease with an autosomal recessive inherited pattern, is induced by <i>GALNS</i> gene mutations causing deficiency in N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase activity (GALNS; EC 3.1.6.4). Currently, intravenous (IV) en...

description Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA or Morquio A), a lysosomal storage disease with an autosomal recessive inherited pattern, is induced by <i>GALNS</i> gene mutations causing deficiency in N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase activity (GALNS; EC 3.1.6.4). Currently, intravenous (IV) enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with elosulfase alfa is employed for treating MPS IVA patients. A systematic literature review was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IV elosulfase alfa for MPS IVA by searching the National Center for Biotechnology Information, U.S. National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health (PubMed), Excerpta Medica dataBASE, and Cochrane Library databases, limited to clinical trials. Four cohort studies and two randomized controlled trials, with a total of 550 participants (327 on ERT treatment versus 223 on placebo treatment), satisfied the inclusion criteria. Pooled analysis of proportions and confidence intervals were also utilized to systematically review clinical cohort studies and trials. Per the pooled proportions analysis, the difference in means of urinary keratan sulfate (uKS), 6-min walk test, 3-min stair climb test, self-care MPS-Health Assessment Questionnaire, caregiver assistance and mobility, forced vital capacity, the first second of forced expiration, and maximal voluntary ventilation between the ERT and placebo treatment groups were −0.260, −0.102, −0.182, −0.360, −0.408, −0.587, −0.293, −0.311, and −0.213, respectively. Based on the currently available data, our meta-analysis showed that there is uKS, physical performance, quality of life, and respiratory function improvements with ERT in MPS IVA patients. It is optimal to start ERT after diagnosis.
