About this study

This is a Natural History study to characterize key aspects of the clinical course of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) deficiency/Wolman phenotype in patients.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to characterize key aspects of the clinical course of LAL deficiency/Wolman phenotype in patients including, but not limited to, survival and growth parameters, to serve as a historical control to inform the evaluation and care of affected patients and to provide a reference for efficacy studies of enzyme replacement or other novel therapies.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Time to Death

    The time to death will be analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Estimates (with exact 95% confidence interval [CI]) of the median and the lower and upper quartiles of time to death will be derived.

    Measured: Up to two years.
