Current treatment strategies in place or being considered in Pompe disease

• Enzyme replenishment through enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and enzyme enhancement
 ○ BisM6P enrichment
  ▪ Through chemical conjugation of synthetic linkers
  ▪ Through clonal selection of rhGAA with CHO-cell derived M6P and bis-M6P moieties
 ○ IGF-2 receptor related GILT-tagging
 ○ Monoclonal antibody driven entry into muscle using CD63 and ITGA7
• Minimizing rhGAA inactivation in circulation with small molecule enzyme stabilizer
• Delivery of full length gene through viral delivery for production of endogenous GAA
 ○ Liver approach
 ○ Muscle approach
 ○ Intrathecal or intraventricular approach
• Ex-vivo genetic modification of hematopoietic (CD34 +) stem cells (HSCs) through a lentiviral approach to express GILT-tagged GAA enzyme
• Antisense approach to improve the IVS splicing variant
• Substrate Reduction therapy (SRT)
 ○ Small molecule approach
 ○ Antisense approach
