ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES:

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2-disease) is an inherited childhood-onset neurodegenerative condition, with classical early features of speech delay, epilepsy, myoclonus, ataxia, and motor regression. This study aimed to better characterize the spectrum of movement disorders in CLN2-disease in a cohort of children receiving enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).

METHODS:

A cohort of 18 children attending a single center for treatment with cerliponase alfa ERT was systematically assessed using a standardized structured history and a double-scored, video-recorded examination using the Unified Batten Disease Rating Scale (UBDRS) and Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale.

RESULTS:

Noncanonical movement disorders are common while ataxia (89%) and myoclonus (83%) were near-universal, spasticity and dystonia were experienced by over half (61% each), with children having a median of 4 distinct movement disorder phenotypes. This progression was stereotyped with initial ataxia/myoclonus, then hyperkinesia/spasticity, and later hypokinesia. ERT slows progression of movement disorders, as measured by the UBDRS physical subscale, with 1.45 points-per-month progression before diagnosis and 0.44 points-per-month while on treatment (p = 0.019).

DISCUSSION:

Movement disorders are a core feature of CLN2-disease and follow a typical pattern of progression which is slowed by ERT. Identifying and treating movement disorders should become standard, especially given increased patient survival.
