  • NIH funded; 16 subjects: 11 ETAN/5 PLAC

    • ETAN 50 mg subQ weekly x 52 weeks
  • All on PRED at least 2 mo

  • After ETAN vs. PLAC, PRED taper

  • Results: All 5 PLAC relapsed (med 148 days)

    • 6/11 ETAN failures (med 358 days)


Avg PREDdose after week 24:

  • Avg PREDdose after week 24:

    • PLAC – 29.2 mg/day
    • ETAN – 1.2 mg/day
  • Other outcome measures: no diff

    • MMT, MVIC, IMACS, MITAX, MYOACT, HAQ, SF36, INQOL, CK
  • No AE/SAE diffs

  • Conc: ETAN may have steroid sparing in DM

Clinical Features

  • Clinical Features

    • frequently misdiagnosed as PM
    • insidious onset and slowly progressive (average duration of symptoms prior to dx is 6 yrs)
    • males affected more than females
    • usually develops over the age of 50 to 60 years (most common myositis in patients presenting over the age of 50 years)
    • Typical phenotype:
      • wrist/finger flexors
      • Knee extensors








SUMMARY

  • SUMMARY

  • No convincing evidence drug Rx significantly improves IBM

  • A small number of patients may have transient improvement or stabilization

  • However, all patients ultimately deteriorate over time

  • Empiric trial can be offered if patient is aware of realistic results and side effects

  • Other option - No drug Rx

  • Other option – Investigational Rx trials



Derivative of Bimoclomol, developed by CytRx, a potent co-inducer of Heat Shock Proteins

  • Derivative of Bimoclomol, developed by CytRx, a potent co-inducer of Heat Shock Proteins

  • Stabilizes Heat Shock Transcription Factor-1 (HSF-1)

    • This increases levels of HSP70 and HSP90
  • Interacts with acidic membrane lipids to stabilize plasma membranes

  • Interacts with cardiolipin in mitochondria

    • May stabilize membrane
    • May inhibit apoptosis
  • Safe in 3 month ALS trial

  • To assess the safety and tolerability of arimoclomol 100 mg PO TID administered for 4 months in subjects with IBM

  • 2 sites: KUMC & UCL-ION MRC

  • Each site enrolled 12 subjects, n=24

  • Randomization 2/1

  • Provide data for future multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled efficacy study

  • Problem – unclear if small biotech company will move drug forward

    • 30 lb / 15 kg boy = approx. 10 mg/day
  • We recommended prednisone to most families when boys are ambulatory and beginning to fall

  • Potential side effects:

    • Weight gain
    • Mood changes/insomnia
    • Osteoporosis

  • KUMC/CMH is a site



Molecular genetic testing

  • Molecular genetic testing

    • 70% deletions
    • 10% duplications
      • By PCR
    • 20% point mutation/splicing errors
      • Require gene sequencing
  • Muscle biopsy for immunostaining and/or Western blot

  • Conclusion: 1st do deletion/duplication testing. If neg, do biopsy or sequencing

  • Out-of-frame mutation

  • No dystrophin

Pompe disease

  • Pompe disease

    • A genetic lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the absence or marked deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid a-glucosidase (GAA)1:
      • Glycogen accumulates in muscle cells;
      • Which in turn causes progressive degeneration of skeletal, including respiratory, and cardiac muscle, depending on patient age
    • Classified as infantile-onset or late-onset, although disease onset presents as a continuous spectrum2
