Sanfilippo Syndrome - MPS IIIA Investigational Drug Study

Sanfilippo syndrome Type A or mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIA (MPS IIIA) is a rare genetic disorder caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme sulfamidase. Lack of this enzyme causes buildup of large sugar molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the lysosomes which leads to cellular dysfunction. The buildup of GAGs causes significant damage to the body and brain. This study is a multicenter, Phase 1/2 study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of they study drug DNL126, an enzyme replacement therapy, to provide the missing enzyme to the body. Up to 28 participants with MPS IIIA will participate in the study across multiple study sites .

ACHIEVE Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to figure out the best way to work with providers and staff who treat pregnant people with very high blood pressure. We will send a nurse to 20 clinics that provide prenatal care in the community. For 12 months, the nurse will train and coach staff on implementing guidelines for addressing severe blood pressure. Some of the training will use patient actors who need their blood pressure measured, or who come to the clinic with very high blood pressure. The nurse will observe the clinic team as they interact with the "pretend" patient, and talk to them afterwards about ways to improve care. We will collect data before, during, and after the nurse has worked in the clinic. Information from 1) observations, and 2) patient charts of people who have already delivered, will tell us if our efforts in the clinics made a difference.
