A two-component therapy for adults with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) weighing 88 lbs or more who are not improving on their current enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).
Pombiliti+Opfoldataking on LOPD together
POMBILITI + OPFOLDA was purposefully DESIGNED to help overcome key challenges
POMBILITI enhances uptake
POMBILITI™ (cipaglucosidase alfa-atga) is a ‑enriched ERT designed for improved binding and uptake into the muscle cells
OPFOLDA improves the stability of POMBILITI
OPFOLDA™ (miglustat) is the first and only oral enzyme stabilizer designed for LOPD. OPFOLDA stabilizes POMBILITI within the bloodstream
What does bis-M6P mean for me?
POMBILITI contains (bis‑mannose 6‑phosphate). Bis‑M6P is a type of sugar that contains 2 phosphates. These phosphates help POMBILITI bind more strongly to receptors on the muscle cells compared with M6P, which contains only 1 phosphate.

Important Safety Information
POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA may cause serious side effects, including:
- Hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylaxis): Severe and potentially life-threatening allergic-type reactions related to the infusion may occur during and after POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA treatment. Your doctor will inform you of the signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions which may include: difficulty breathing or swallowing, rash or hives, low blood pressure, swelling of lips, tongue, throat or face.

Appropriate medical support measures may be administered, and you may require close observation during and after POMBILITI infusion.
What are POMBILITI and OPFOLDA?
POMBILITI and OPFOLDA are prescription medicines used in combination for the treatment of adults with late-onset Pompe disease weighing 88 pounds (40 kg) or more and who are not improving on their current enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).
It is not known if POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA is safe and effective in children with late-onset Pompe disease.
Important safety information
POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA may cause serious side effects, including:
- Hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylaxis): Severe and potentially life-threatening allergic-type reactions related to the infusion have been reported during and after POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA treatment. Your doctor will inform you of the signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions which may include: difficulty breathing or swallowing; rash or hives; low blood pressure; swelling of lips, tongue, throat, or face. Seek medical care immediately should signs and symptoms occur. If a severe reaction occurs, your doctor may decide to immediately discontinue the infusion and provide medical care. Appropriate medical support measures may be administered, and you may require close observation during and after POMBILITI infusion.
- Infusion-Associated Reactions (IARs): Severe IARs related to the infusion have been reported during or after POMBILITI in combination with OPFOLDA. Your doctor will inform you of the signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions which may include: hives, itching, shortness of breath, flushing, chills, and low blood pressure. Seek medical care immediately should signs and symptoms occur. If severe IARs occur during infusion, your doctor may decide to immediately discontinue the infusion and provide appropriate medical care. If you have an acute underlying illness at the time of POMBILITI infusion you may be at greater risk for IARs. If you have advanced Pompe disease you may have compromised heart and breathing function, which may put you at a higher risk of severe complications from IARs.
- Risk of Acute Cardiorespiratory Failure: If you are likely to develop fluid volume overload or have an acute breathing condition or heart and/or breathing problems that require fluid restriction, you may be at risk of worsening of your heart or breathing status during POMBILITI infusion. Your doctor may decide that close observation during and after POMBILITI administration may be necessary.
