“…This study exemplifies how small pilot studies may give information about biochemical drug effects in vivo in humans. Since miglustat may stabilize neurological symptoms in NPC (Patterson et al 2010;Wraith et al 2010), these data are encouraging and support the use of T-tau to detect effects on axonal degeneration in clinical trials for neurodegenerative diseases. The results may be interpreted in relation to prior observations on longitudinal T-tau measurements in other brain diseases.…”

“…Miglustat treatment seems to stabilize the neurological disease in a majority of NPC patients (Patterson et al 2007(Patterson et al , 2010Pineda et al 2009;Wraith et al 2010). However, diseasemonitoring may be difficult, and there is a need for improved biomarkers to identify treatment responders, and monitor progression and treatment effect (Galanaud et al 2009;Platt and Lachmann 2009).…”

“…Thus, it was proposed that Miglustat, the same therapeutic agent used for Gaucher disease, could also be beneficial in NPC patients. In a controlled trial in 29 adult and juvenile NPC patients, Miglustat stabilized neurological disease, with improved horizontal saccadic eye movement, stabilized ambulation, and improved swallowing (54,55). Improved swallowing was also observed in a study on the efficacy of Miglustat in four pediatric patients (56).…”

“…Для данного заболевания разработано патогенети-ческое лечение, эффективность которого напрямую связана со сроками постановки правильного диагноза [2]. Именно поэтому очевидно, что ранняя диагно-стика НПС важна не только для медико-генетического консультирования, но и принципиально значима в плане своевременного назначения терапии.…”
