Brief Summary:

NGLY1 deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that is characterized by: global developmental delay and/or intellectual disability, hypo- or alacrima, transient elevation of transaminases, and a hyperkinetic movement disorder. Significant phenotypic variability has been observed in the small number of affected individuals described in the medical literature.

The purpose of this study is to describe the natural history of NGLY1 deficiency in a prospective, detailed, and highly uniform manner. Study participants will be closely monitored over the course of five years in order to:

  • understand the clinical spectrum and progression of NGLY1 deficiency using standardized clinical and neurodevelopmental assessments
  • identify clinical and biomarker endpoints for use in therapeutic trials, and
  • identify genotype-phenotype correlations

Close clinical follow-up will allow for generation of a rich dataset and detailed understanding of the natural history of NGLY1 deficiency.

Intervention Details:
  • Other: Neurodevelopmental Assessment
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally as measured by age and ability-appropriate scales, including: the Mullen Scales of Early Learning, the Peabody Scales of Motor Development, the Vineland 3, and Beery Visual Motor Integration

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

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Detailed phenotyping of the clinical course of NGLY1 deficiency over time [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Conducted in patients with NGLY1 deficiency: detailed standardized general, neurologic, dysmorphologic, and ophthalmologic evaluations; clinical laboratory studies; electroencephalogram; nerve conduction studies; quantitative studies of autonomic function; scoring of movement disorder and NGLY1 deficiency symptom scales; and a timed 10-meter walk test. As much information as available will also be collected from existing medical records including clinical evaluations, imaging studies and neuropsychological and motor function evaluations.

  2. Neurodevelopmental profile of NGLY1 deficiency as measured using Mullen Scales of Early Learning [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally, if age and ability-appropriate.

  3. Neurodevelopmental profile of NGLY1 deficiency as measured using Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, Second Edition [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally, if age and ability-appropriate.

  4. Neurodevelopmental profile of NGLY1 deficiency as measured using the Peabody Scales of Motor Development [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally, if age and ability-appropriate.

  5. Neurodevelopmental profile of NGLY1 deficiency as measured using the Differential Ability Scales II [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally, if age and ability-appropriate.

  6. Neurodevelopmental profile of NGLY1 deficiency as measured using the Beery Visual Motor Integration developmental test [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Developmental assessment at baseline and longitudinally, if age and ability-appropriate.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Participant quality of life as measured through the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Quality of life will be evaluated at baseline and longitudinally.

  2. Caregiver quality of life as measured through the 36 Item Short Form Survey (SF36) [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Quality of life will be evaluated at baseline and longitudinally. Caregivers will complete the survey but will not be enrolled in the study.

  3. Biomarkers for NGLY1 deficiency identified during the course of the study [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Longitudinal collection and monitoring of laboratory studies and clinical presentation as measured through standardized and quantitative assessments may identify biomarkers for NGLY1 deficiency.
