Abstract
The past decade, novel treatment options for congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) have advanced rapidly. Innovative therapies, targeting both the root cause, the affected metabolic pathways, and resulting manifestations, have transitioned from the research stage to practical applications. However, with novel therapeutic abilities, novel challenges await, specifically when it concerns the large number of clinical trials that need to be performed in order to treat all 190 genetic defects that cause CDG known to date. The present paper aims to provide an overview of how the CDG field can keep advancing its therapeutic strategies over the coming years with these challenges in mind. We focus on three important pillars that may shape the future of CDG: the use of disease models, clinical trial readiness, and the possibility to make individualized treatments scalable to the entire CDG cohort.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease (JIMD) is the official journal of the Society for the Study of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (SSIEM). By enhancing communication between workers in the field throughout the world, the JIMD aims to improve the management and understanding of inherited metabolic disorders. It publishes results of original research and new or important observations pertaining to any aspect of inherited metabolic disease in humans and higher animals. This includes clinical (medical, dental and veterinary), biochemical, genetic (including cytogenetic, molecular and population genetic), experimental (including cell biological), methodological, theoretical, epidemiological, ethical and counselling aspects. The JIMD also reviews important new developments or controversial issues relating to metabolic disorders and publishes reviews and short reports arising from the Society''s annual symposia. A distinction is made between peer-reviewed scientific material that is selected because of its significance for other professionals in the field and non-peer- reviewed material that aims to be important, controversial, interesting or entertaining (“Extras”).
