9. The subject's parent(s) or legal guardian must have voluntarily signed an Institutional Review Board/Independent Ethics Committee-approved informed consent form after all relevant aspects of the study have been explained and discussed with the subject's parent(s), or legal guardian.
Exclusion Criteria: Subjects who meet any of the following criteria are not eligible for this study:

The subject has neurologic, hearing or vision impairment, difficulty swallowing or feeding, respiratory complications, behavioral disturbances, or other medical conditions that are not due to GLD and are likely to confound the scientific integrity or interpretation of study assessments, as determined by the Investigator.
2. The subject has received treatment with any investigational drug or a device within the 30 days prior to study enrollment through study completion.
3. The subject has received a cord blood or bone marrow transplant or is planning to receive one during the study.
