MYOZYME (alglucosidase alfa) is an intravenous enzyme replacement therapy for acid maltase deficiency, also known as Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSD II), a rare inherited lysosomal disorder. The drug provides an exogenous source of the deficient GAA enzyme, which is internalized via mannose-6-phosphate receptor binding and transported to lysosomes where it cleaves accumulated glycogen. This mechanism restores enzymatic activity and halts progressive muscle weakness and organ dysfunction in affected patients.
Product is nearing loss of exclusivity with moderate competitive pressure (30/100), signaling transition planning and potential team restructuring.
