This is a prospective, observational multicenter study to collect blood from patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type IH undergoing laronidase therapy and a stem cell transplant. Sixteen patients will be enrolled over a 24 month period.

To identify key differences leading to variability in PK parameters for patients receiving IV laronidase therapy for the treatment of MPS-IH. There will be 12 samples per patient (6 pre-transplant and 6-post-transplant). Laronidase will be administered IV per protocol using standard dosing (0.58 mg/kg intravenously on a weekly basis), and six (n=6) blood samples will be collected over 24 hours for the determination of mononuclear cell lysates and plasma laronidase concentrations for a total of 18mL. The second PK monitoring will be obtained using the same PK design but following complete or near-completedonor derived myeloid engraftment which is evaluated at different time pointspost-HCT (day 30, day 42, day 60). The standard is to continue ERT through 8 weeks post-transplant.
