Pompe Telemedicine Developmental Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary purpose of this study is to:
-
Document the developmental outcomes of individuals with Pompe disease treated with long-term enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT) through school-age (ages 6-18) using measures of cognitive functioning, academic skills, and speech and language abilities.
-
Investigate possible cognitive processing speed weaknesses using BrainBaseline neurocognitive assessment software.
-
Investigate the relationship between behavior and other developmental factors including speech and language ability and cognitive ability.
-
Explore if the use of selected iPad applications may help strengthen cognitive processing speed in children with Pompe disease

Detailed Description
The study will last approximately 2-3 years. It includes 2-4 visits to Duke for developmental assessments. The baseline/year 1 visit may take place at Duke (may take 1-2 days) or remotely via iPad. The follow up 1/year 2 visit may take place at Duke (1-2 days) or remotely via an iPad, depending upon each child's particular situation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Relationship between daily behaviors in school-aged children with Pompe disease and observed speech patterns, as assessed by speech pathology. [2 years]
- Document the developmental outcomes and cognitive function of individuals with Pompe disease treated with long-term ERT through school-age (ages 6-18), as assessed by PPVT-4. [2 years]
This outcome measure will be tested using measures testing cognitive function.
- Document the developmental outcomes and language abilities of individuals with Pompe disease treated with long-term ERT through school-age (ages 6-18), as assessed by CELF-5. [2 years]
This outcome measure will be tested using measures testing language abilities.
- Document the developmental outcomes and cognitive function of individuals with Pompe disease treated with long-term ERT through school-age (ages 6-18), as assessed by Woodcock-Johnson Test of Achievement. [2 years]
- Document the developmental outcomes and cognitive function of individuals with Pompe disease treated with long-term ERT through school-age (ages 6-18), as assessed by Leiter. [2 years]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Relationship between daily behaviors in school-aged children with Pompe disease and development, as assessed by Conners. [2 years]
- Relationship between daily behaviors in school-aged children with Pompe disease and development, as assessed by BRIEF-P. [2 years]
- Relationship between daily behaviors in school-aged children with Pompe disease and development, as assessed by Child Behavior Checklist. [2 years]
