Active clinical trials for "Fabry Disease"

GR181413A/AT1001 (migalastat hydrochloride) is a low molecular weight iminosugar, an analog of the terminal galactose group that is cleaved from the substrate GL-3. This compound was researched and developed as a drug for treatment of Fabry disease. This study, MGM115806, will be the first administration of GR181413A/AT1001 to Japanese subjects to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single oral doses in healthy Japanese adult subjects. Approximately 12 subjects will receive three treatments of 50, 150 and 450 mg GR181413A/AT1001 under fasted conditions plus placebo in a dose ascending crossover design. Serial pharmacokinetic samples will be collected and safety assessments will be performed following each dose. The pharmacokinetics and dose proportionality of GR181413A/AT1001 after single oral doses of GR181413A/AT1001 at the dose levels of 50, 150 and 450 mg under fasted conditions will be assessed.

This study is designed to evaluate safety and PK/PD in Canadian Fabry patients.

This is a multinational, long-term follow-up study to assess the long-term safety and durability of AVR-RD-01 treatment in participants who received a single dose administration of lentiviral gene therapy in Study AVRO-RD-01-201 (treatment study). No investigational product will be administered in this study. Participants will continue periodic safety and efficacy assessments in this long-term follow-up study up to 15 years from AVR-RD-01 gene therapy infusion.

No investigational drug will be administered in this study for the treatment of Fabry disease. This will be a multicenter, multinational, non-treatment, cross-sectional study of young male patients with Fabry disease who have not yet initiated interventional treatment for this disease. The study will consist of a screening visit(s), a clinical investigation visit(s), and a follow-up phone contact. The objectives of the study are: To document renal function and other Fabry disease manifestations across age in treatment-naïve, young male patients with Fabry disease. To provide a reference group for comparison with interventional clinical trials of Fabry disease. The duration of each patient's participation in the study, inclusive of the screening visit and follow-up phone contact, will be approximately 12 weeks.

Fabry Disease (FD) is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by mutations in the GLA gene which translates into decreased activity or lack of function of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (α-GAL A) and accumulation of the enzymes substrate, i.e., Gb3, throughout the body. Cardiovascular and renal complications are among the leading causes of death in FD patients. RVX000222 is a BET inhibitor which modulates the expression of a variety of genes and, due to its effects on pathways downstream of substrate accumulation and reduction of major cardiac events, holds promise as a potential add-on therapy to accompany enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in FD patients.

Fabry disease is an X-linked rare metabolic disease, caused by a deficient activity of the hydrolase α-Galactosidase A, and characterized by a progressive and systematic deposition of glycosphingolipids in many organs. The disease is most severe in affected males. In the classic form (where the enzyme activity is absent) the clinical findings are represented by pain and paresthesias in the extremities, vessel ectasia (called angiokeratoma) in skin and mucous membranes, and hypohidrosis (a reduced sweating) during childhood or adolescence. Corneal and lenticular opacities may be present. Proteinuria, renal impairment,cardiac and neurological lesions develop with time, together with hypertension. When end stage renal disease occurs, dialysis or renal transplantation may be necessary. In heterozygous females a residual enzymatic activity may be demonstrated and they usually have asymptomatic or later onset disease manifestations, although rarely they could develop a disease as severe as in males. A cardiac and a renal variant, where the heart and kidney are the only organs involved by the disease have been described too. The recombinant human α-galactosidase A is now available for patients. Infusions of the enzyme replacement treatment have been demonstrated to be safe and effective. This study wants to evaluate the long term efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy in patients with Fabry disease and renal involvement. Clinical period evaluations together with a genetic counselling will be offered to each patient.

Fabry disease (OMIM 301500) is an X-linked inborn error of sphingolipid metabolism resulting from the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. Heterozygous females for Fabry disease may be symptomatic with cardiac, renal or cerebrovascular involvement. Clearance of Gb3 and stabilization of renal function has been demonstrated in male patients treated with agalsidase beta (FABRAZYME). In contrast, no randomized, controlled study of the efficacy of recombinant alpha-galactosidase A has been reported in heterozygotes for Fabry disease.

Patients will undergo a SmartPill test to gain additional understanding of Fabry disease manifestation via motility abnormalities in order to improve symptom targeted therapy. An additional Endoscopic mucosal resection may be performed on further qualifying patients. Tissue analysis from this biopsy will include evaluation of abnormalities of cellular structure and morphology with correlation with gastrointestinal complaints for each patient and comparison against age matched non-Fabry patient tissue. The hypothesis is that patients with fabry disease will have abnormal motility which will correlate with the patients symptoms and quality of life as noted on the questionnaires.

The aim of this study was to investigate renal function decline by measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) in patients with FD during enzyme replacement therapy, and to explore the influence of age on renal function in FD.

Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD) is one of the rare lysosomal storage disorders for which a cause - specific therapy is available. Recently, a new specific drug has been marketed, namely Migalastat, a small-molecule pharmacological chaperone. The effect of Migalastat on cardiac involvement has been assessed so far by 2D echocardiography, demonstrating a significant reduction in left ventricular (LV) mass after 18 months of therapy. Calculation of LV mass by 2D echocardiography is limited by geometrical assumptions and quality of echocardiographic window, with a strong impact on accuracy. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) overcomes these limitations, thus representing the gold standard technique for ventricular mass, volumes and function estimation. Moreover, CMR offers the unique possibility to perform a non-invasive tissue characterization, including the detection of both myocardial fibrosis by Late Gadolinium Enhancement and sphingolipid storage by T1 mapping. Beyond an accurate morphological description and a detailed tissue characterization, a complete cardiological assessment should also integrate functional data and bio-humoral profile. This study is designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the therapeutic effect of Migalastat (123 mg every other day) on cardiac involvement after 18 months of therapy, integrating a morphological, functional and bio-humoral assessment.
