Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are a group of genetic diseases that occur due to the either deficiency of an enzyme involved in a metabolic/biochemical pathway or other disturbances in the metabolic pathway including transport protein or activator protein deficiencies, cofactor deficiencies, organelle biogenesis, maturation or trafficking problems. These disorders are collectively significant due to their substantial impact on both the well-being and survival of affected individuals. In the quest for effective treatments, enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has emerged as a viable strategy for patients with many of the lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) and enzyme substitution therapy in the rare form of the other inborn errors of metabolism including phenylketonuria and hypophosphatasia. However, a major challenge associated with enzyme infusion in patients with these disorders, mainly LSD, is the development of high antibody titres. Strategies focusing on immunomodulation have shown promise in inducing immune tolerance to ERT, leading to improved overall survival rates. The implementation of immunomodulation concurrent with ERT administration has also resulted in a decreased occurrence of IgG antibody development compared with cases treated solely with ERT. By incorporating the knowledge gained from current approaches and analysing the outcomes of immune tolerance induction (ITI) modalities from clinical and preclinical trials have demonstrated significant improvement in the efficacy of ERT. In this comprehensive review, the progress in ITI modalities is assessed, drawing insights from both clinical and preclinical trials. The focus is on evaluating the advancements in ITI within the context of IEM, specifically addressing LSDs managed through ERT.
