Dear Jaewon,

Happy New Year!

I would like to update you on the Gaucher mouse models status. As I mentioned, I have recently reviewed data for L444P, N370S and D409V mouse models currently available at RD DDU as well as literature on these and other Gaucher models. I have presented my findings to the RD DDU Gaucher SMA team. The team has decided to use L444P for routine compound screening (l444p 가능 줄 비) GlcSph 거의 없는데도, 13.2%라도 줄였기 때문에?) (because rhGCB increased brain GlcSph in D409V mice?). Read-out will be activity in the brain and visceral organs and substrate reduction in the liver. At some point we will age a cohort of L444P to test substrate reduction in the brain by lead candidates.

The team has carried-out natural history studies for all three lines. Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, collected samples will not be analyzed until next budget year (~April-May 2021). But regardless, based on in-house data and published reports neither L444P nor N370S will work in the pupillary light reflex test (because neither shows significant brain GlcSph?). Older D409V mice have some CNS abnormalities and could theoretically have ocular abnormality. But, if I understand correctly, since D409V is a mouse gene mutant, it will not work for your compound (we have terminated GBA activator project). Acid ceramidase inhibitor project will use D409V mice for POC in GD).

On the bright side, I found a paper where pupillary light reflex was used in Gaucher clinical trial (attached). It seems quite sensitive. I also attached nonclinical study referenced in the paper. They did not use Gaucher mouse models. Robust activity increase in mutant cells and slight activity increase in normal seems to have translated into good clinical pupillary response. With this “proof of translatability”, similar data package for your compounds could be enough to propose pupillary light reflex as an exploratory clinical endpoint.

If you are interested, we can schedule a call after January 4th and I would be happy to walk you through the data we have for different mouse lines and current in-vivo testing plan. Kind Regards, Natalia
