Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA) (or Morquio A disease) is a rare recessive autosomal lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) resulting in accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) chondroitin-6-sulfate and keratin sulfate (KS). Patients display progressive development of skeletal and joint abnormalities and non-skeletal features including respiratory, cardiac, sensorial and neurological complications. Recently, a specific treatment using enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant human GALNS (elosulfase alfa) has become available. A multicenter double-blind placebo-controlled phase 3 trial (176 patients, age > 5 yrs) showed significant improvement in endurance of 22.5 m in 6 Minute Walking Test (6MWT) distance after 24 weeks of treatment with elosulfase alfa at 2.0 mg/kg/week as compared with placebo group. In addition to ERT, a multidisciplinary management approach is necessary for coordinating assessment and follow-up as well as for providing individualized supportive and symptomatic care.
