About this study

The objectives of this program are: to characterize and describe the Mucopolysaccharidosis IV type A (MPS IVA) population as a whole, including the heterogeneity, progression, and natural history of MPS IVA; to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of Vimizim®, including, but not limited to, the occurrence of serious hypersensitivity reactions, anaphylaxis, and changes in antibody status; to help the medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring MPS IVA patients and reports on patient outcomes to optimize patient care; to collect data on other treatment paradigms, and evaluate the prevalences of their use and their effectiveness; to characterize the effects and safety of Vimizim treatment 5 years from enrollment in the Registry for patients under 5 years of age; to monitor pregnancy exposure, including maternal, neonatal, and infant outcomes; and to monitor patients who have completed the MOR-005 and MOR-007 clinical trials. These patients will be encouraged to enroll in the applicable Registry Substudy and will be monitored using the MOR-005 and MOR-007 assessment schedules, respectively.

Read the detailed description

MARS is a multicenter, multinational, observational disease registry for patients diagnosed with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVA (MPS IVA). The Registry will collect medical history, and clinical and safety assessments every six months, for up to 10 years. The Registry will enroll and collect data on patients over a period of at least 8 years from the time of the first marketing approval globally and data on individual patients will continue to be collected for at least 2 years from the time the last patient was enrolled or until the Registry is completed.

These assessments are designed to further characterize the spectrum of clinical signs and symptoms of the disease, and to further characterize the safety profile of Vimizim in a broader population. It is not required that patients receive Vimizim to be eligible to participate in this Registry.

In addition, this Registry will collect additional data on patients who have completed the MOR-005 and MOR-007 clinical trials. The MOR-005 and MOR-007 clinical trial patients will be enrolled into the appropriate Registry Substudy for a minimum of 5 years from the time of the patient's enrollment in the MOR-005 clinical study or MOR-007 clinical study. After the 5 year period, these patients should remain in MARS until the Registry is complete.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Vimizim® (elosulfase alfa)Drug

    Also called BMN 110

    Recombinant human N acetylgalactosamine 6 sulfatase (rhGALNS)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety of Vimizim treated patients as measured by the incidences of Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, and immunology tests

    Additional safety measures are medications, occurrence of Bone Marrow Transplant/Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant, clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, Electrocardiograms, Echocardiograms, immunogenicity results, physical examinations, imaging studies, and cervical spine imaging.

    All assessments in this observational study will be carried out per the participating institution's standard of care.

    The MARS Annual report will descriptively summarize the safety and outcome measurements for the duration of this voluntary, observational study.

    Measured: 10 Years

  2. Efficacy of Vimizim as measured by the 6MWT, 3MSCT, RFTs, FEV1, FIVC, FVC, and MVV

    Efficacy of Vimizim as measured by the changes in the 6 minute walk test (6MWT), 3 minute stir climb test (3MSCT), respiratory function tests (RFTs) including forced expiratory volume for 1 second (FEV1), forced inspiratory vital capacity (FIVC), forced vital capacity (FVC), and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) and by urinary Keratan Sulfate.

    Measured: 10 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The MARS Pregnancy Substudy will collect safety data measured by Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, immunology tests, and the infant outcomes as measured by a live birth

    The MARS Pregnancy Substudy will collect safety data on the outcomes of pregnancy in women who receive Vimizim as measured by Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, immunology tests, and the infant outcomes as measured by a live birth.

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mucopolysaccharidosis IV Type A and Morquio A Syndrome, run by BioMarin Pharmaceutical at 79 sites in 17 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 79 sites in United States, Taiwan, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and 12 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety of Vimizim treated patients as measured by the incidences of Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, and immunology tests (time frame: 10 Years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Mar 2024.
