Research and Clinical Trials

The Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency Registry

The LAL-D Registry is a place where your doctor can enter information about LAL-D patients' medical condition but with no identifying information. This is essential, especially since LAL-D is rare because it helps researchers to learn more about the characteristics of LAL-D to increase scientific knowledge and lead to new discoveries. Please ask your doctor if you would like to be enrolled in the LAL-D registry so that your signs and symptoms or your child's can be including in the body of knowledge on LAL-D.

On September 1, 2015, Alexion announced that the European Commission approved Kanuma for the treatment of patients of all ages with LAL-D. The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Kanuma for LAL Deficiency presenting in infants and accepted the Kanuma BLA for Priority Review. In addition, a New Drug Application for Kanuma has been submitted to Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.
