FORMULATIONS COMPRISING GLUCOCEREBROSIDASE AND ISOFAGOMINE

The invention provides a composition of glucocerebrosidase, such as velaglucerase alfa, and isofagomine, in a molar ratio of at least about 1:2.5. Also provided is a use of the composition for treatment of a disorder related to a dysfunction in a GCase pathway. The disorder could be a lysosomal storage disease, such as Gaucher disease, Fabry disease, Pompe disease, a mucopolysaccharidoses, or multiple system atrophy. The disorder could also be a neurodegenerative disorder, such as Parkinson disease, Alzheimer's disease, or Lewy body dementia. The composition can have 0.5 to 5.0 mg/kg of glucocerebrosidase and isofagomine in at least about a 3-fold molar excess to the glucocerebrosidase. The composition can be administered intravenously or subcutaneously.

GENE THERAPIES FOR LYSOSOMAL DISORDERS

The disclosure relates, in some aspects, to compositions and methods for treatment of diseases associated with aberrant lysosomal function, for example Parkinson's disease and Gaucher disease. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides expression constructs comprising a transgene encoding one or more inhibitory nucleic acids targeting SCNA or a portion thereof, TMEM106B or a portion thereof, or any combination of the foregoing. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides methods of Parkinson's disease by administering such expression constructs to a subject in need thereof.

Enzymatic activity assays for glucocerebrosidase

The present invention provides, among other things, methods and compositions for determining enzyme kinetic parameters (e.g., Vmax, Km, and specific activity, etc.) indicative of clinically relevant properties of glucocerebrosidase using a physiologically relevant substrate, in particular, a substrate that is representative of substrates that typically accumulate in patients suffering from Gaucher disease such as glucosylceramide. Thus, the present invention is particularly useful to measure a kinetic parameter relating to the activity of glucocerebrosidase in a drug substance, drug product, and stability sample for enzyme replacement therapy.

Method for Enhancing Folding and Transport of Misfolded Glucocerebrosidase

Therapeutic compositions and methods for treatment of late-onset Gaucher disease are described herein. The compositions comprise compounds having activity as pharmacological chaperones for mutant forms of the beta-glucocerebrosidase. Methods of treatment involve providing therapeutically effective amounts of such compositions to subjects in need thereof.
