70 year-old woman with a history of CAD recently noted abdominal mass who presents with fevers/rigors and bandemia. Over the last few weeks leading up to admission, she has been experiencing mid-abdominal pain, radiating to the left flank. It lasts throughout the day is not increased by eating though there is associated vomiting and is worsened with coughing. CT abdomen without contrast was then performed on [**4-20**] showing a large 9.5 x 7.5 x 6.0-cm heterogeneous left upper abdominal mass. Patient underwent a EUS with biopsy. The results of the biopsy were consistent with pancreatic adenocarcinoma at the head of pancreas. Splenic flecture/pancreatic tail mass was also seen on CT, likely diverticular abscess given the patients recent likely history of diverticulitis this was thought to be an infected fluid collection or abscess. She was treated with IV antibiotics (Zosyn, then ceftriaxone and flagyl) and will continue on them until seen by ID as an outpatient. Past Medical History: 1.

Age 5 years or older; however, the first patient will be no younger than 7 years of age. 2. Genetic diagnosis of GAN: Identified mutation(s) on both copies of the GAN gene. If the mutations found are not previously reported, then predictive software tools will be utilized in order to determine the degree of certainty that the mutation is predicted to be pathogenic (disease causing). This will also be evaluated in the context of the clinical and pathological phenotype (see below). 3. Onset of clinical signs and symptoms consistent with GAN, including at least abnormal gait, as well as physical examination findings including at least abnormal gait, abnormal sensation (proprioceptive and/ or vibration sensation and/or positive Romberg), and some quantifiable weakness on manual muscle testing examination (score of < 5/5 strength of at least one tested muscle). 4. Men capable of fathering a child must agree to use barrier contraception (combination of a condom and spermicide) or limit activity to post-menopausal, surgically sterilized, or contraception-practicing partners, for 6 months after administration of investigational product. Women and girls of childbearing potential (and parents/ guardians for minors < 18) must agree to have urine human chorionic gonadotropin testing performed to rule out the possibility of pregnancy at each visit. Those women who are sexually active must also agree to use barrier contraception as well or limit activity to surgically sterilized or contraception-practicing partners for 3-6 months after the administration of the investigational product. This limitation is set because of the unknown risk associated with the administration of this vector genome to offspring. There is no known risk of sexual transmission of the vector. 5. Willing and able to give informed consent if >17 years of age and assent if >7 years of age. For patients ages 7-17, parents or legal guardians must also consent to the child s participation in the study. Adults who lack capacity to consent but who have an appropriate surrogate may be included. 6. Willingness to undergo a nerve biopsy at baseline and at 12 months after treatment. 7. Agree to reside within 100 miles of the study site for at least 2 months following treatment (may housing on NIH campus). In order to participate in this study, a patient MUST NOT have the following characteristics: 1. Pregnant or lactating patients 2. Forced vital capacity less than or equal to 50% of predicted value 3. Ventilator dependence to daytime use of assisted ventilation 4. Current clinically significant infections including any requiring systemic treatment including but not limited to Human immunodeficiency virus, Hepatitis A, B, or C, Varicella zoster virus, or HTLV-1 5. Prior history of bacterial meningitis 6. Unwilling to undergo lumbar puncture at baseline and up to 2 to 3 times during follow up during the first year after treatment. 7. Clinically significant echocardiogram abnormality per PI, anesthesiologist, and cardiologist 8. Clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormality per PI, anesthesiologist, and cardiologist 9. History of brain or spinal cord disease that would interfere with the LP procedures, CSF circulation, or safety assessments 10. Presence of an implanted shunt for the drainage of CSF or an implanted CNS catheter 11. Any prior participation in a study in which a gene therapy vector or stem cell transplantation was administered to avoid any ambiguity in the safety assessment resulting from lingering effects from a previous treatment. 12. Participation in an IND, IDE, or equivalent clinical study in the past six months. 13. History of or current chemotherapy, radiotherapy or other immunosuppressive therapy within the past 30 days. Corticosteroid treatment may be permitted at the discretion of the PI. 14. Immunizations of any kind in the month prior to the study to avoid lingering immune effects that could be confusing in the safety assessment of the trial. 15. Current use of medication (e.g., levothyroxine, vitamin A supplementation, oral contraceptive use, tetracycline, Diamox) that could potentially lead to changes in intracranial pressure 16. Known sensitivity or adverse reaction to anesthetic medications likely to be used in the peri-operative period per the anesthesiologist s evaluation 17. GAN subjects without quantifiable weakness or functional loss 18. Evidence of cardiomyopathy on history, exam, or additional testing (echocardiogram or electrocardiogram) or other cardiac disease that in the opinion of the investigator would deem the subject unsafe to participate in the trial 19. History of diabetes or clinically significant abnormality of glucose tolerance test, fasting blood sugar 20. Positive purified protein derivative testing for tuberculosis 21. Abnormal laboratory values considered clinically significant per the investigator: 1. Platelet count < 100,000 / mm3 2.

Over the last few weeks leading up to admission, she has been experiencing mid-abdominal pain, radiating to the left flank. It lasts throughout the day is not increased by eating though there is associated vomiting and is worsened with coughing. CT abdomen without contrast was then performed on [**4-20**] showing a large 9.5 x 7.5 x 6.0-cm heterogeneous left upper abdominal mass. Patient underwent a EUS with biopsy. The results of the biopsy were consistent with pancreatic adenocarcinoma at the head of pancreas. Splenic flecture/pancreatic tail mass was also seen on CT, likely diverticular abscess given the patients recent likely history of diverticulitis this was thought to be an infected fluid collection or abscess. She was treated with IV antibiotics (Zosyn, then ceftriaxone and flagyl) and will continue on them until seen by ID as an outpatient. Past Medical History: 1.

Anemia (HCT | eligible ages (years): 0.0-999.0, Acute Pancreatitis The patients were classified into the group of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) due to clinical symptoms (acute onset of a persistent, severe, epigastric pain with tenderness on palpation on physical examination), personal interview and clinical method used in the diagnosis of pancreatitis laboratory tests (elevation in serum lipase or amylase to three times or greater than the upper limit of normal) and characteristic findings of acute pancreatitis on imaging (contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or transabdominal ultrasonography). In patients with characteristic abdominal pain and elevation in serum lipase or amylase to three times or greater than the upper limit of normal, no imaging was required to establish the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. In patients with abdominal pain that was not characteristic for acute pancreatitis or serum amylase or lipase levels that were less than three times the upper limit of normal, or in whom the diagnosis was uncertain, the investigators performed abdominal imaging with a contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scan to establish the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis and to other causes of acute abdominal pain. In patients with severe contrast allergy or renal failure, the investigators performed an abdominal MRI without gadolinium The volunteers classified as healthy based on the research conducted by clinicians of primary medical care (control group) other accompanied diseases than acute pancreatitis (the patients groups) Individuals of the control group with diagnosed disease as well as alcohol and drugs abusers | 2 |
