Purpose
An exploratory, open-labeled study of patients with Pompe disease, who have previously received Myozyme (alglucosidase alfa) treatment, to evaluate the efficacy, safety and clinical benefit of 2 Immune Tolerance Induction (ITI) regimens in combination with Myozyme. Eligible patients who are currently receiving Myozyme therapy will be enrolled into the study, and will be followed for a minimum of 18 months on-study (a 6-month ITI treatment module and a 12-month follow-up module on Myozyme alone). Eligible patients will be followed for a minimum of 18 months on treatment or, if a patient is <6 months of age at the time of enrollment, until the patient is 2 years of age. Both cross-reacting immunologic material (CRIM)-negative and CRIM-positive patients can be eligible for Regimen A depending if they meet the required criteria. Regimen B however, is limited to CRIM-negative patients.

| Official Title: | An Exploratory Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Immune Tolerance Induction (ITI) in Patients With Pompe Disease Who Have Previously Received Myozyme |
- Evaluate the efficacy of ITI regimens as assessed by anti-recombinant human acid α-glucosidase (anti-rhGAA) antibody titers and antibodies that inhibit the enzymatic activity and/or uptake of Myozyme [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate Pompe disease activity in patients receiving the 2 ITI regimens as measured by overall survival. [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate Pompe disease activity in patients receiving the 2 ITI regimens as measured by respiratory function. [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate Pompe disease activity in patients receiving the 2 ITI regimens as measured by Left ventricular mass index (LVMI). [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate Pompe disease activity in patients receiving the 2 ITI regimens as measured by motor function. [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate Pompe disease activity in patients receiving the 2 ITI regimens as measured by disability index. [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Evaluate the safety of the 2 ITI regimens as assessed by the incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and clinical laboratory abnormalities. [ Time Frame: 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Inclusion Criteria:
- The patient (and/or patient's legal guardian if patient is < 18years) must provide written informed consent prior to any study-related procedures that are performed;
- The patient must have a confirmed diagnosis of Pompe disease defined as a documented acid α-glucosidase (GAA) enzyme deficiency from any tissue source or 2 GAA gene mutations;
- The patient (and/or legal guardian) must have ability to comply with clinical protocol;
- If the patient is Cross-reacting immunologic material (CRIM)-positive, he/she must have received at least 6 consecutive months of Myozyme infusions (20mg/kg qow)
- If the patient is CRIM-negative, he/she must have received at least 1 Myozyme infusion prior to enrollment
