Shire HGT Announces Approval for Elaprase

In July 2006 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced approval of Elaprase, the first
treatment for individuals with MPS II.  Elaprase (idursulfase) is an enzyme replacement therapy from
Shire Human Genetic Therapies. Elaprase is designed to replace iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S), the enzyme
that is deficient or absent in people with MPS II.  Elaprase has been shown to improve walking capacity
in these individuals.   Elaprase is available by prescription only.  To learn more, please visit

www.elaprase.com
for full prescribing information.
