Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides an effective and less invasive approach for direct delivery of therapeutic agents to the central nervous system (CNS). In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods including a step of administering intrathecally to a subject suffering from or susceptible to a lysosomal storage disease associated with reduced level or activity of a lysosomal enzyme, a composition comprising a replacement enzyme for the lysosomal enzyme.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method of treating a lysosomal storage disease associated with reduced level or activity of a lysosomal enzyme comprising a step of: administering intrathecally to a subject in need of treatment, a composition comprising a replacement enzyme for the lysosomal enzyme at a concentration at or greater than about 5 mg/ml at a dose amount of at least 10 mg, wherein the composition comprises phosphate at a concentration of no greater than 50 mM. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises one or more of (i) a buffering agent, (ii) a surfactant, or (iii) a tonicifier. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition has a pH of approximately 3.0-8.0. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition is administered at a single dose volume of less than 5 mL. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the intrathecal administration of the composition does not result in substantial adverse effect in the subject. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the intrathecal administration of the composition does not result in adaptive T-cell mediated immune response.
