Brief Summary:
This is a natural history study for children up to 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB (MPS IIIB, also known as Sanfilippo Syndrome Type B). Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB is a severe neurodegenerative disorder. The information gathered from this trial may help inform the design and interpretation of subsequent interventional studies. No clinical intervention or study drug is provided by Allievex in this study.

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Neurocognitive function [ Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks ]
    A neurodevelopmental assessment will be performed using standardized developmental tests to provide quantifiable measures of neurocognitive function.

  2. Behavioral function [ Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks ]
    Disease-related behaviors will be assessed using an MPS IIIB specific behavior rating scale.

  3. Quality of Life Tests [ Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks ]
    Multiple QoL tools will be used to capture physical, mental, and social well-being of the patient as well as to examine the impact of the patient's disease on the parent/guardian and family.

  4. Sleep habits [ Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks ]
    Patient sleep habits will be assessed using Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaires (CSHQ).

  5. Disease-specific Biomarkers [ Time Frame: Baseline + every 24 weeks for up to 240 weeks ]
    Urine sample for glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and creatinine.

  6. Biochemical, Molecular, Cellular and Genetic Markers of Disease Burden [ Time Frame: Once (at baseline visit) ]
    Blood and urine samples will be used to evaluate biochemical, molecular cellular, and genetic/genomic aspects of MPS IIIB.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Written informed consent from parent or legal guardian and assent from subject, if required
  • Has the ability to comply with protocol requirements, in the opinion of the investigator

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Has another neurological illness that may have caused cognitive decline (e.g., trauma, meningitis, or hemorrhage) before study entry
  • Has received stem cell, gene therapy, or enzyme replacement therapy for MPS IIIB
  • Has received any investigational medication within 30 days prior to the Baseline visit or is scheduled to receive any investigational drug during the course of the study
  • Has a medical condition or extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, might compromise the subject's ability to comply with protocol requirements, the subject's wellbeing or safety, or the interpretability of the subject's clinical data.
  • Is currently participating in another natural history study
