The LPLS447X gene variant, in an adeno-associated viral vector of serotype 1 (alipogene tiparvovec), was administered to 14 adult LPLD patients with a prior history of pancreatitis. Primary objectives were to assess the long-term safety of alipogene tiparvovec and achieve a X40% reduction in fasting median plasma triglyceride (TG) at 3–12 weeks compared with baseline. Cohorts 1 (n ¼ 2) and 2 (n ¼ 4) received 3 Â 1011 gc kg À 1, and cohort 3 (n ¼ 8) received 1 Â 1012 gc kg À 1. Cohorts 2 and 3 also received immunosuppressants from the time of alipogene tiparvovec administration and continued for 12 weeks. Alipogene tiparvovec was well tolerated, without emerging safety concerns for 2 years. Half of the patients demonstrated a X40% reduction in fasting TG between 3 and 12 weeks. TG subsequently returned to baseline, although sustained LPLS447X expression and long-term changes in TG-rich lipoprotein characteristics were noted independently of the effect on fasting plasma TG.

Basabdatta Samanta1 1Department of Biochemistry, Burdwan Medical College, West Address for correspondence Basabdatta Samanta, MBBS, MD, Bengal, India DNB, Department of Biochemistry, Burdwan Medical College, Burdwan 713104, West Bengal, India (e-mail: [email protected]). Ann Natl Acad Med Sci (India) 2019;55:92–97 Abstract Ischemic heart disease is currently an epidemic affecting individuals worldwide. Increased incidence along with earlier onset of disease has led to the constant search for biomarkers that will help in earlier identification and treatment of at risk individuals. Small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) is the atherogenic subtype of low-densi- ty lipoprotein (LDL). It is smaller in size and higher in density in comparison to other LDL subtypes. Higher levels of sdLDL have been found to be associated with increased incidence of ischemic heart disease and adverse outcomes. Properties including decreased resistance to oxidative stress and prolonged residence time in the circula- tion account for its increased atherogenic potential. Hence intervention approaches targeting sdLDL directly in at risk individuals may be beneficial. Genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors affect sdLDL levels. But the main deter- mining factor is the level of triglycerides (TGs). Higher TG levels are associated with higher levels of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) 1 and sdLDL. Various drugs Keywords have been used for targeting sdLDL with varying outcomes; drugs tried out include ► ischemic heart disease statins, fibrates, niacin, cholesterol ester transfer protein inhibitors and sodium-glu- ► small dense low - cose co-transporter-2 inhibitors.

In ancient times, Hippocrates combined an assessment of the four humors — blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile — to determine the best course of treatment for each patient. Today, the sequence of the four chemical building blocks that comprise DNA, coupled with telltale proteins in the blood, enable more accurate medical predictions. The Personalized Medicine Report 5 INTRODUCTION When it comes to medicine, one size does not fit all. Treatments that help some patients are ineffective for others (Figure 1),1 and the same medicine may cause side effects in only certain patients. Yet, bound by the constructs of traditional disease, and, at the same time, increase the care delivery models, many of today’s doctors still efficiency of the health care system by improving prescribe therapies based on population averages.

Alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera) is a gene therapy product approved in Europe under the ‘‘exceptional cir- cumstances’’ pathway as a treatment for lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD), a rare genetic disease re- sulting in chylomicronemia and a concomitantly increased risk of acute and recurrent pancreatitis, with potentially lethal outcome. This retrospective study analyzed the frequency and severity of pancreatitis in 19 patients with LPLD up to 6 years after a single treatment with alipogene tiparvovec. An independent adjudication board of three pancreas experts, blinded to patient identification and to pre- or post-gene therapy period, performed a retrospective review of data extracted from the patients’ medical records and categorized LPLD-related acute abdominal pain events requiring hospital visits and/or hospitalizations based on the adapted 2012 Atlanta diagnostic criteria for pancreatitis.

  • Alipogene Tiparvovec (AMT-011, Glybera) for Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency
    Alipogene tiparvovec (AMT-011, Glybera) for lipoprotein lipase deficiency February 2009 This technology summary is based on information available at the time of research and a limited literature search. It is not intended to be a definitive statement on the safety, efficacy or effectiveness of the health technology covered and should not be used for commercial purposes. The National Horizon Scanning Centre Research Programme is part of the National Institute for Health Research February 2009 National Horizon Scanning Centre News on emerging technologies in healthcare Alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera) for lipoprotein lipase deficiency Target group • Lipoprotein lipase deficiency - also known as familial chylomicronaemia or hyperlipoproteinaemia type I. Background Lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD) is an inherited metabolic disorder, characterised by abnormally elevated plasma concentrations of chylomicrons and triglycerides. LPLD includes patients classified as having hyperlipoproteinaemia type 1 (also known as familial chylomicronaemia) due to a deficiency of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and those with a deficiency of apolipoprotein C-II, a lipase activating protein. LPL hydrolyses the triglyceride component of circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). When LPL activity is reduced, chylomicrons accumulate within the bloodstream and cause symptoms such as: abdominal pain, an enlarged spleen and liver, eruptive xanthomas and potentially lethal pancreatitis. The gene encoding for LPL is located on chromosome 8 and is expressed mainly in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and heart muscle. Technology description Alipogene tiparvovec (AMT-011, Glybera) is an adeno-associated viral vector (AAV1) based gene therapy, administered intramuscularly (IM) at multiple-sites in a single session. AAV1 carrying the human variant LPLS447X gene is delivered to skeletal muscle, where it becomes active.

  • The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence
    Appendix B NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR HEALTH AND CARE EXCELLENCE Proposed Highly Specialised Technology Evaluation Alipogene tiparvovec for treating familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency Draft scope (pre-referral) Draft remit/evaluation objective To evaluate the benefits and costs of alipogene tiparvovec within its licensed indication for treating adults with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency for national commissioning by NHS England. Background Familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD), also known as hyperlipoproteinaemia type I, is an inherited metabolic disorder of lipid metabolism. It is caused by the absence or low activity of lipoprotein lipase, due to mutations in the LPL gene which encodes the enzyme.1 Lipoprotein lipase is the enzyme responsible for uptake of triglycerides from the circulating chylomicrons into the tissues.2 LPLD is characterised by extremely high levels of chylomicrons in the blood. Chylomicrons are triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles that transport dietary fat absorbed from the intestine to the organs like skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and cardiac muscle for energy production and storage.3 Familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency may present in infancy or childhood with repetitive episodes of severe, colicky pain in the abdomen, repeated episodes of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), enlargement of the liver and spleen, and often failure to thrive. The severity of the symptoms depends upon the levels of chylomicrons in the blood. Acute pancreatitis is a life- threatening condition which requires intensive care; repeated attacks of pancreatitis may lead to chronic pancreatitis and diabetes in later life. Diagnosis is sometimes not confirmed until adolescence or adulthood and can involve genetic testing and/or measurement of enzyme activity.4 The prevalence of familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency is estimated to be 1 to 2 per million people which equates to approximately 50 to 100 people in England.
