A Prospective Study to Investigate Safety and Tolerability of Shorter Infusion of Fabrazyme

Fabry's Disease

This Phase 4 study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of Fabrazyme at current approved dose with increases in the infusion rate and reduced infusion volume. This study aims to generate data to provide the guidance on how infusion rate can be safely increased and minimize the burden of the life-long treatment with Fabrazyme.

Fabry Disease Registry & Pregnancy Sub-registry

Fabry Disease

The Fabry Registry is an ongoing, international multi-center, strictly observational program that tracks the routine clinical outcomes for patients with Fabry disease, irrespective of treatment status. No experimental intervention is involved; patients in the Registry undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by the patient's treating physician. The primary objectives of the Registry are: To enhance the understanding of the variability, progression, and natural history of Fabry disease, including heterozygous females with the disease; To assist the Fabry medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients and reports on patient outcomes to help optimize patient care; To characterize and describe the Fabry population as a whole; To evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme® Fabry Pregnancy Sub-registry: This Sub-registry is a multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program designed to track pregnancy outcomes for any pregnant woman enrolled in the Fabry Registry, regardless of whether she is receiving disease-specific therapy (such as enzyme replacement therapy with agalsidase beta) and irrespective of the commercial product with which she may be treated. Data from the Sub-registry are also used to fulfill various global regulatory requirements, to support product development/reimbursement, and for other research and non-research-related purposes. No experimental intervention is given; thus a patient will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard of care treatment as determined by the patient's physician. If a patient consents to this Sub-registry, information about the patient's medical and obstetric history, pregnancy, and birth will be collected, and, if a patient consents to data collection for her infant, data on infant growth through month 36 postpartum will be collected.

National Registry of Rare Kidney Diseases

Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase DeficiencyAH Amyloidosis85 more

The goal of this National Registry is to is to collect information from patients with rare kidney diseases, so that it that can be used for research. The purpose of this research is to: Develop Clinical Guidelines for specific rare kidney diseases. These are written recommendations on how to diagnose and treat a medical condition. Audit treatments and outcomes. An audit makes checks to see if what should be done is being done and asks if it could be done better. Further the development of future treatments. Participants will be invited to participate on clinical trials and other studies. The registry has the capacity to feedback relevant information to patients and in conjunction with Patient Knows Best (Home - Patients Know Best), allows patients to provide information themselves, including their own reported quality of life and outcome measures.

Natural History and Structural Functional Relationships in Fabry Renal Disease Treatment Outcomes(Changes)in...

Fabry Disease

The investigators will perform a study with two major components. The first is a natural history study of untreated Fabry patients. This study component will detail kidney microscopic structural changes in Fabry patients before starting enzyme replacement therapy and will correlate these changes with kidney function, including glomerular filtration rate and urinary albumin excretion rate. The investigators will perform studies on samples obtained at baseline, or before enzyme replacement therapy is initiated. The goal of our study is to find kidney microscopic changes in the biopsies that are associated with kidney disfunction. Our hypotheses for this study are: Much of the natural history of Fabry renal structural changes will occur without detectable renal functional alterations. Structural changes associated with the initial onset of proteinuria and those associated with the subsequent progressive loss of filtration function will differ and will be best described by non-linear models. There will be sufficient precision of Fabry renal structural-functional relationships to support renal structure as an acceptable clinical trial surrogate endpoint for later renal functional deterioration. The second component examines the effects of age and gender at start of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), as well as dosage levels of ERT on the renal cellular clearance of GL3 from Fabry patients by comparing baseline to follow-up kidney biopsies performed 5, 11, and 60 months later, with all comparisons matched for ERT treatment duration. Our hypotheses for this component of the study are as follows: Enzyme Replacement Therapy(ERT) instituted at younger ages is more effective in reducing podocytes(PC),distal tubular cells(DTC),and arterial smooth muscle cells (ASMC)GL-3 than in older Fabry patients. Earlier institution of ERT will stabilize PC numbers while later ERT institution, especially in proteinuric adults, may not prevent progressive decline in PC numbers and associated glomerular sclerosis, tubulointerstitial injury, and GFR loss. Whereas lower ERT dose may effectively clear GL-3 from endothelial and mesangial cells, it will be less effective in clearing GL-3 from PC and also from DTC and ASMC. Affected cells will be cleared of GL-3 equivalently in females and males.

A Long Term Follow-Up Study of Fabry Disease Subjects Treated With FLT190

Fabry DiseaseLysosomal Storage Diseases

Fabry disease is a rare, X-linked inborn error of glycosphingolipid metabolism caused by an abnormal gene encoding the α-galactosidase A (αGLA) enzyme. The αGLA enzyme is ubiquitously expressed throughout the body and is responsible for the breakdown of glycosphingolipids, deficiency of which results in the accumulation of specific glycosphingolipids that are associated with the pathophysiology of the disease. Current treatment for Fabry disease is limited to the symptomatic management of pain, conventional management of complications, and methods to increase the availability of functional αGLA. This clinical study aims to investigate the long-term safety and durability of αGLA in patients who have been dosed with a new gene therapy product (FLT190) in earlier clinical studies.

ScreenPlus: A Comprehensive, Flexible, Multi-disorder Newborn Screening Program

Acid Sphingomyelinase DeficiencyCeroid Lipofuscinosis15 more

ScreenPlus is a consented, multi-disorder pilot newborn screening program implemented in conjunction with the New York State Newborn Screening Program that provides families the option to have their newborn(s) screened for a panel of additional conditions. The study has three primary objectives: 1) define the analytic and clinical validity of multi-tiered screening assays for a flexible panel of disorders, 2) determine disease incidence in an ethnically diverse population, and 3) assess the impact of early diagnosis on health outcomes. Over a five-year period, ScreenPlus aims to screen 175,000 infants born in nine high birthrate, ethnically diverse pilot hospitals in New York for a flexible panel of 14 rare genetic disorders. This study will also involve an evaluation of the Ethical, Legal and Social issues pertaining to NBS for complex disorders, which will be done via online surveys that will be directed towards ScreenPlus parents who opt to participate and qualitative interviews with families of infants who are identified through ScreenPlus.

Long-Term Follow-up of Subjects Who Were Treated With ST-920

Fabry DiseaseFabry Disease1 more

Long-term follow-up of subjects who received ST-920 in a previous trial (ST-920-201) and completed at least 52 weeks post-infusion follow-up in their primary protocol. Enrolled subjects will be followed for a total of up to 5 years following ST-920 infusion.

Fabry Exercise Intolerance Study

Fabry DiseaseFabry Disease1 more

Patients and healthy controls will undergo cardiopulmonary exercises and testing of the muscles strength to gain additional understanding of exercise intolerance as Fabry disease (FD) manifestation. An additional needle muscle biopsy may be performed. Tissue analysis from this biopsy will include evaluation of the lipidomics profile and mitochondrial function. Results of the tests and any potential exercise intolerance will be compared against healthy, age-, sex- and BMI-matched volunteers. The hypothesis is that patients with FD will have reduced exercise capacity due to changes in skeletal and cardiac muscle energy metabolism.
