A Prospective Observational Study to Assess the Long-term Safety and Immunogenicity of Olipudase Alfa Therapy During Routine Clinical Care in Pediatric Patients Less Than 2 Years of Age With Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency
US, multicenter, cohort, open label observational study with primary data collection. Ancillary protocol-specified procedures to address the study objectives (eg, assessment of ADA) may be considered outside the standard of care for acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD), but the study methodology remains non-interventional, as the additional collection of data from participants will not dictate treatment. The total overall study duration will be 5 years. The follow-up period will be a minimum of 1 year to a maximum of 3 years. The enrollment period will be up to 4 years, to allow a minimum of 1 year of follow-up for the last participant enrolled.
• The participant must have ASMD type A/B or B and must be \<2 years of age at the time of treatment initiation, OR ASMD type A (without age restriction).
• The participant must weigh ≥ 2 kg \[The United States Prescribing Information (USPI)\] for olipudase alfa specifies this minimum weight for infants receiving olipudase alfa).
• The participant must have documented ASMD, as determined in peripheral leukocytes, cultured fibroblasts, or lymphocytes and/or by genotype determination.
• Signed informed consent must be provided by the participant's parent(s)/legal guardian(s), including compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol. The signed ICF must be provided before any protocol-related procedures are performed.
• The participant is eligible to start olipudase alfa enzyme replacement therapy or has received the first dose (and no more) of olipudase alfa, and has retrievable clinical, laboratory, and ADA data.
