Introduction • 3rd EWGGD in Lemnos: • Initiation of high dose ERT followedbe individual adaptedmaintenancedosage in children ( signsof GD in preschoolage) • n=10, age: 6-10 years, ERT followup: • 6 years • 10th EWGGD in Paris • Same cohort ( + 5 pts, 1 pts lost tofollowup ) • 13 yearslater
MOTIVATION Most of these Patients > 50 years What about red marrow and yellow marrow in young adults? Can we prevent bone disease ?
AIM OF THE STUDY To show the outcome of early treated patients with treatment initiation before the age of 10 years after 8 – 20 years of ERT, when they become young adults.
Patients • Inclusion Criteria: • Typ1 GD is confirmed, clinical relevant manifestation • Treatment initiation before the age of 10! • Treated since a minimum of 8 years • ∑ 14 patients • Age of 17- 26 years • Mainzer treatment protocol is used
TRETAMENT PROTOCOL FOR ERT Maintenence: • Permanent therapytopreventdetoriationandcomplications • Advice: 15-60 IE/kg KG/14 days • Mainzer Protocol: Dosagedepends on clinicalsymptomsandincreaseofchitotriosidase! Average: 38.5 IE/kg KG/14 days Initial: • Clinical manifestionsbeforetheageof 10 years! • Advice: 60 IE/kg KG / 14 days
OutcomeMeasures • Bone-marrowScores – WholebodyMRI: • Düsseldorfer Gaucher Score (DGS) • Vetebra-Disc-ratio (VDR) • BoneMarrowBurden Score (BMB) • All-domain- Score: • Sverity Score Index Type 1 (GD-S3)

GRADUATION OF BONE-MARROW INFILTRATION • Normal: • hyperintense-signal intensity(T1-sequence)/ fine- structured • Low: • mostly hyperintense-signal intensitywith beginng of Gaucher-cell infiltration→hypointense (T1) /regular-structured • Medium: • more hypointense-signal intensity/regular structured • High: • severe hypointense-signal intensity/ inhomogenous Source: Institut für Kinderradiologie, Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität

Results • Score-classifications: • BMB-Sc.: 0-4 (mild)/ 5-8 (moderate)/ 9-16 (severe) [Range: 0-16] • DGS-Sc.: 1-6 (low)/ 7-8 (high) compared with type A & B-morphology [Range: 1-8] • VDR-Sc.: 1.9 ±0.30 (normal)/ 1.29 ± 0.31 (untreated pat.)/ 1.7. ± 0.33 (long-treated pat.)

Conclusion • All Whole- Body-MRIs were well tolerated • NO BONE COMPLICATIONS • Typical manifestions of GD are reduced to a minimum! • Only bone marrow infiltration was observed • BMB-Score • DGS-Score LOWER LEVEL • GD-S3 Score • VDR-Score EXCEPTION: located in the spectrum of non-treated pat. • Postponed bone marrow conversion ?? Minimum effective dose ?? • Consequence: Follow-up studies
