Objective: To determine the effect of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) after 5 years and to identify predictors for a favorable response because few data are available on the long-term efficacy of ERT in Pompe disease.Methods: We included 102 adult patients with Pompe disease in a nationwide, prospective cohort study. We assessed muscle strength (manual muscle testing with Medical Research Council [MRC] grading, handheld dynamometry [HHD]), muscle function (6-minute walk test, Quick Motor Function Test), daily life activities (Rasch-Built Pompe-Specific Activity [R-PAct] Scale), and pulmonary function (forced vital capacity [FVC] in upright and supine positions, maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressures) at 3- to 6-month intervals before and after the start of ERT. Data were analyzed with linear mixed-effects models for repeated measurements.Results: Median follow-up duration was 6.1 years (range 0.4-7.9 years), of which 5.0 years (range 0.2-7.3 years) were during ERT. Treated patients had better muscle strength (MRC sum score +6.6 percentage points [pp]; HHD sum score 19.6 pp, both p
