Non-depleting anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody induces immune tolerance to ERT in a murine model of Pompe disease.
Abstract
Approximately 35-40% of patients with classic infantile Pompe disease treated with
enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) develop high, sustained antibody titers against the
therapeutic enzyme alglucosidase alfa, which abrogates the treatment efficacy. Induction
of antigen-specific immune tolerance would greatly enhance ERT for these patients.
Here we show that a short-course treatment with non-depleting anti-CD4 monoclonal
antibody successfully induced long-term ERT-specific immune tolerance in Pompe disease
mice. Our data suggest an effective adjuvant therapy to ERT.

Associate Professor in Pediatrics
My overall research interests are finding effective treatment for human glycogen storage
diseases (GSDs) and other inherited metabolic disorders. My current research focuses
on identification of novel therapeutic targets and development of effective therapies
for GSD II (Pompe disease), GSD III (Cori disease), and GSD IV (Andersen disease)
using cellular and animal disease models. The main therapeutic approaches we are using
in our pre-clinical studie
