Laronidase is a recombinant human alpha-L-iduronidase, an enzyme replacement therapy approved for the treatment of mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I, Hurler, Hurler-Scheie, and Scheie syndromes), a rare lysosomal storage disorder. Laronidase helps reduce non-neurological symptoms related to glycosaminoglycan accumulation in affected individuals. It is currently approved and used for MPS I treatment.
