Visual perception and macular integrity in non-classical CLN2 disease

2022-11-01

The aim of the study was to provide longitudinal ophthalmic data of CLN2 patients with confirmed genetic mutation and non-classical disease course, marked by later onset, protracted progression and prolonged life span.

CLN2

Cerebrospinal fluid neurofilament light chain levels in CLN2 disease patients treated with enzyme replacement therapy normalise after two years on treatment

2021-07-20

In this study, it is aimed to analyze CSF NfL in CLN2 patients treated with Cerliponase alfa (Brineura) to establish whether it can be used as a possible biomarker of response to therapy.

CLN2

Unraveling neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2

2021-06-04

In this study, the majority of the patients presented with late-infantile onset seizures. Despite improved access to enzymatic and molecular testing, there is still a significant diagnostic delay

CLN2

Presymptomatic treatment of classic late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis with cerliponase alfa

2021-05-14

Cerliponase alfa is able to postpone the onset of symptoms when used in the presymptomatic stage of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2 disease).

Guidelines on the diagnosis, clinical assessments, treatment and management for CLN2 disease patients

2021-04-21

The guidelines in this study provide solid evidence-based and expert-agreed advice on the risks/benefits of disease-modifying treatments and medical procedures used for the management of patients with CLN2 disease and other neurodegenerative diseases.

MRI in CLN2 disease patients: Subtle features that support an early Diagnosis

2020-09-28

The aim of this study is to highlight common magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features seen in early CLN2 disease and raise disease awareness among clinicians. Any of the mentioned features on MRI in this article should raise clinical suspicion to test for CLN2 disease.

CLN2

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2: An Australian case series

2020-04-24

This article aims to highlight typical clinical and radiological features that may prompt diagnosis of CLN2 disease in early disease stages.

CLN2

Changing Times for CLN2 Disease: The Era of Enzyme Replacement Therapy

2020-03-30

The natural history of CLN2 disease, its diagnosis and management, and the preclinical and clinical development of cerliponase alfa, were all described in this study. Cerliponase alfa administration in patients with CLN2 disease resulted in significant reductions in the rate of decline of motor and language functions.
