Actionability Assertions

Gene Condition (MONDO ID) OMIM ID Final Assertion
IDUA mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (0001586) 607014 Moderate Actionability
IDUA mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (0001586) 607015 Assertion Pending
IDUA mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (0001586) 607016 Assertion Pending

Actionability Assertion Rationale

  • The assertion of moderate is for Mucopolysaccharidosis type I, given the potential for clinically significant outcomes for which there are available interventions. However, we recognize that there are mild/attenuated forms where interventions may not be appropriate and for which there is limited evidence for actionability.

Prevalence of the Genetic Condition

The worldwide prevalence of mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) has been estimated at 0.69-3.8:100,000; however, recent neonatal screening data yield incidence rates from 1:7,353 to 1:14,567 in the United States. The prevalence of the Hurler, Hurler-Scheie, and Scheie subtypes has been estimated at 1:200,000, 1:115,000-435,000, and 1:500,000, respectively.

Clinical Features (Signs / symptoms)

The lysosomal storage disease MPS I is a progressive multisystem disorder caused by a deficiency of α-L-iduronidase, the enzyme encoded by IDUA, resulting in the buildup of undegradable enzyme substrate. This results in coarse facial features, early frequent upper respiratory infections including otitis media, inguinal or umbilical hernia, hepatosplenomegaly, characteristic skeletal and joint findings (gibbus deformity; limitation of joint range of motion), hearing loss, cardiovascular involvement (the leading cause of death), airway compromise, and ocular findings (e.g., corneal clouding potentially leading to vision impairment). The degree, number, age of onset, and severity of these symptoms varies. As such, MPS I has historically been divided into three MPS I subtypes based on severity of symptoms and age of onset: Hurler syndrome (severe), Hurler-Scheie syndrome (intermediate/moderate), and Scheie syndrome (attenuated/mild). Enzymatic activity alone is unreliable for phenotypic prediction. Because the clinical findings for these subtypes overlap, the disease has more recently been understood as a continuous spectrum and classified as one of two types: severe or attenuated MPS I, a distinction which impacts therapy options. Attenuated MPS I individuals have the greatest variability in clinical findings.

Natural History (Important subgroups & survival / recovery)

Severe MPS1 (Hurler syndrome) is characterized by chronic and progressive disease involving multiple organs and tissues. While infants appear normal at birth, they may have inguinal or umbilical hernias. Mean age of diagnosis of severe disease is nine months, with most affected patients diagnosed before age 18 months. Facial coarsening becomes apparent within the first two years. Children have early bone involvement, with some findings apparent on radiograph at birth and gibbus deformity being reported as early as age 6 months (typically apparent within the first 14 months). Cardiac disease can present as early as less than one year of age. Developmental delay is usually obvious by age 18 months, with a maximum function age of 2-4 years followed by deterioration. By age three, linear growth decreases. Death by cardiorespiratory failure typically occurs within the first two decades of life if left untreated, by which time children are severely intellectually disabled. A small subset of individuals with severe MPS I have an early-onset fatal thickening of the endocardium.Children with attenuated MPS I (Hurler-Scheie or Scheie) are developmentally normal at age 24 months. Onset of disease with attenuated MPS I usually occurs between age three and ten years. Rate of disease progression in attenuated phenotypes is variable, from serious life-threatening complications leading to death in the second and third decades to a normal lifespan albeit with significant disease morbidity. Although intellectually normal in early childhood, some affected children may develop detectable learning disabilities. The manifestation of other symptoms in attenuated MPS I is variable, with the most significant source of disability deriving from skeletal/joint manifestations. The mildest forms of the disease may go unrecognized until adulthood.

Patient Management

At diagnosis, all patients with MPS I should have a detailed multidisciplinary evaluation for phenotype prediction and to guide treatment, including evaluations from ophthalmology, otolaryngology, cardiology, orthopedic surgery, pulmonology, neurodevelopmental specialists, and pediatric neurosurgery as necessary. Patients should also undergo radiography, audiometry, polysomnography, echo- and electro-cardiography, abdominal ultrasound, respiratory studies, imaging of the brain and spine, vital sign assessment, and assessment of functional ability and quality of life.

For patients diagnosed early with severe MPS I (Hurler syndrome) and/or a genotype exclusively associated with a severe phenotype, the preferred treatment strategy is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) performed before age 2 or 2.5, depending on guideline and as soon as the somatic condition allows and before developmental deterioration (DQ ≥ 70). Some guidelines caution that it should only be undertaken in carefully selected children for whom long-term monitoring is possible. The decision to transplant in patients with advanced CNS disease should be made by a team, as these patients are less likely to benefit. Case data suggest that HSCT performed before 24 months of age and onset of significant developmental delay has better engraftment rates and the highest probability of rescuing neurocognitive outcome, though survivors may still experience speech delay and learning disability. Based on numerous case reports and case series, successful HSCT eliminates hepatosplenomegaly, improves joint mobility, improves respiratory and cardiovascular function, and reduces frequencies of otitis media. (Tier 2) HSCT does not significantly improve musculoskeletal outcomes as demonstrated by systematic review of these outcomes in case data from patients treated with HSCT.

Guidelines differ regarding the role of HSCT in moderate disease and/or disease of unknown phenotype. Some guidelines cite a potential role for HSCT in moderate (Hurler-Scheie) phenotype, although there is no effectiveness data to support this. Others state that patients should be monitored and HSCT considered if cognition declines or make no specific recommendation. HSCT should not be unnecessarily administered in mild disease (no cognitive impairment likely) due to associated morbidity and mortality.

Guidelines differ regarding the use of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with laronidase, the FDA approved drug for treatment of MPS I. Some guidelines state that all patients, regardless of disease severity or HSCT treatment plan, should receive ERT starting at diagnosis. Other guidelines suggest individualized management with the use of clinical judgement for pursuing either HSCT or ERT based on patient phenotype and clinical condition and age at diagnosis.

Systematic reviews and meta-analyses of the small studies and clinical trials resulting in approval have concluded long-term ERT effectively treats several somatic signs and symptoms. However, these findings have been mainly limited to one RCT of 45 patients which found an improvement in lung functioning and 6-minute walk time as well as reductions in urinary excretion of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and sleep disorder breathing in those on ERT compared to placebo. Further, effects on cognition have not been examined in clinical trials. Reviews incorporating non-RCTs confirm improvements in urinary excretion of GAGs, hypertrophy, and hepatomegaly.

All patients affected with MPS I should undergo general anesthesia and dental anesthesia in centers staffed by anesthesiologists with experience in managing individuals with MPS. Radiography should be performed on all patients to evaluate individual risks. Individuals with MPS I present major anesthetic risks, including fatality due to difficulty with intubation.

Nature of Intervention

The major drawback to HSCT is its high morbidity and mortality. Recent advances in chemotherapeutic conditioning and donor selection have improved the outcome of this procedure. Yet, a recent retrospective analysis (n = 146) found a reported mortality rate of 15%, with a survival engraftment of 56%.
