Official Title: Search for Serum/Plasma Biomarkers in Pompe's Disease
Brief Summary: This study aims to analyze serum and plasma samples from patients with late onset Pompe disease treated and not treated with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) to identify microRNA that could be specific of the disease. The investigators will correlate the concentration of these microRNA with several muscle function tests and quantitative muscle MRI to know whether they are good biomarkers of progression.

Current Primary Outcome: MicroRNA in serum samples [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Muscle function test [ Time Frame: Baseline and one year ]6 minutes walking test (6MWT), time to climb 4 steps, time to descend 4 steps, Activlim, time to walk 10 meter, Medical Research Council scale (MRC), myometry
- Whole body muscle MRI [ Time Frame: Baseline a and one year ]2 point dixon studies of thigh muscles
- Changes in microRNA concentration [ Time Frame: One year period ]Investigators will analyze concentration of microRNA after one year follow up in every single patients
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
