NCT ID:
NCT07285369
Brief Summary:
Type: Prospective, open-label, single center study
Duration: 6 months with an optional 12-month extension phase
Participants: 12 pediatric patients diagnosed with type III Gaucher disease (GD3) aged ≥3 to ≤18 years old treatment naïve or on enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). They will be treated with high-dose Ambroxol (mean 35mg/kg bodyweight).
Location: The Children's Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan.
Detailed Description:
This single-center, prospective, open-label study investigates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of high-dose Ambroxol in pediatric patients with genetically confirmed Type III Gaucher Disease (GD3). The study will enroll 12 participants aged 3 to 18 years, either treatment naïve or receiving enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). Participants will receive high-dose Ambroxol orally (mean 35 mg/kg bodyweight) over a 6-month period, with an optional 12-month extension.
Primary Objective:
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of high-dose Ambroxol administered with or without ERT.
Secondary Objective:
Assess efficacy based on at least a 20% improvement in at least 50% of participants using the following measures:
* Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) for patients with ataxia
* Unified Myoclonus Rating Scale (UMRS) for patients with myoclonic epilepsy
* Lyso-Gb1 levels in peripheral blood after at least 6 months of treatment
Intervention:
High-dose Ambroxol administered orally (mean 35 mg/kg bodyweight)
Study Location:
The Children's Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan
This study aims to provide preliminary safety and efficacy data on Ambroxol as a therapeutic option for pediatric patients with GD3, potentially informing future larger-scale clinical trials.
