1 A Pilot, Open Label Trial Assessing the Safety and Efficacy of Betaine in Children With Peroxisome Biogenesis Disorders.

The PBD are a rare group of inherited disorders due to the failure to form functional cellular peroxisomes. Most patients have progressive hearing and visual loss, leading to deafness and blindness, as well as neurological deterioration. There are no therapies for this disorder. A misfolded protein with residual function, PEX1-Gly843Asp, represents one third of all mutant alleles. Using patient cell lines with this mutation, we reported the recovery of peroxisome functions by treatment with Betaine, acting as a nonspecific chemical chaperone for the misfolded PEX1 protein. Betaine, or trimethylglycine, is a Health Canada and FDA approved orphan drug for the treatment of homocystinuria and is used by us safely and regularly in genetic medicine. We will perform a 6 month pilot study with 12 patients to test the hypothesis that Betaine, at recommended doses, can recover peroxisome biochemical functions in blood.

Using this test, they have uncovered that Betaine can improve the function of the peroxisome, when the defect is caused by a PEX1-Gly843Asp mutation, and as such may improve the overall health of child suffering from PBD. Betaine is a medication already available as a powder for oral solution, for another rare disease. --- Gly843Asp ---

At the current stage of scientific knowledge, it is a critical next step to evaluate the benefit of betaine in children having a PBD due to a PEX1-Gly843Asp mutation, to ensure that the medication is safe and to measure the level of improvement of the function of the peroxisome. --- Gly843Asp ---
