Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for delivering therapy for a cardiac disorder, wherein the system comprises a source for supplying a protein formulation containing a protein that is otherwise deficient in cardiac cells in a patient with a cardiac disorder, and a catheter having a proximal end and a distal end for delivering the protein formulation to the pericardial sac region of a human heart.
Claims9
A method comprising:
- delivering a therapeutic protein formulation from an implantable source through an implantable catheter directly to a pericardial sac region of a heart of a patient,
- wherein the patient has a cardiac disorder caused by a protein deficiency due to a gene mutation,
- wherein the therapeutic protein formulation comprises a protein in a form that is deficient in cardiac cells of the patient due to the gene mutation,
- wherein the therapeutic protein formulation is delivered at a rate based on the sequence of the patient's gene encoding the deficient protein;
- and
- wherein the cardiac disorder and the protein deficiency are selected from:
- Mucopolvsaccharidoese Hurler (MPS IH) and α-L-iduronidase;
- Schie (MPS IS) and α-L-iduronidase;
- Hunter (MPS II) and Sulfoiduranate sulfate;
- Marquio syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis II) and β-Galactosidase;
- Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (MPS VI) and Aryl sulfatase B;
- Mucolipidoses I cell disease (Mucolipidosis II) and N-acetylglucosamine-I-phosphotransferase;
- PseudoHurler polydystrophy (Mucolipidoses III) and N-acetylglucosamine-I-phosphotransferase;
- Sphingolipidoses Gaucher disease Type I and Glucocerebrosidase;
- Type III Glycogenosis and Amlo-1,6-glucosidase;
- Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiencies LCAD Deficiency and Long-chain acylCoA dehydrogenase;
- Primary Hyperoxaluria I and Alumine:
- glyoxylate amino transferase;
- Primary Hyperoxaluria II and D-glyceric acid dehydrogenase;
- Homocystinuria and Cystathionine;
- Triose-phosphate isomerase deficiency and Triose-phosphate isomerase;
- Hereditary Orotic Aciduria and Uridine-5′-monophosphate synthase;
- Amyloidosis and Prealbumin;
- and
- Refsum's disease and Phytanic acid α hydroxylase.
