Active clinical trials for "Gaucher Disease"

This is a multicenter study to assess the safety and efficacy of taliglucerase alfa (60 units/kg) in previously untreated subjects of any age with Type 3 GD. Subjects will receive an infusion of taliglucerase alfa every 2 weeks for 12 months. Subjects who tolerate the infusions well, and who are treated in centers where home therapy is the SOC will be allowed to switch from site to home treatment at the discretion of the PI but after no less than 3 uneventful infusions at the site.

This is an international prospective and retrospective registry of patients with Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSDs) to understand the natural history of the disease and the outcomes of fetal therapies, with the overall goal of improving the prenatal management of patients with LSDs.

Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated dried blood spots collected between the first day and 28 days of life of babies, after a consent sign by parents.

The study aims are to: a) identify the long-term natural history of Gaucher disease, b) evaluate long-term treatment efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and substrate reduction therapy (SRT), and c) identify potential long-term complications of this disorder. These aims will be accomplished through long-term record review of individuals with all three types of Gaucher disease.

Ambroxol hydrochloride is an oral mucolytic drug available over-the-counter for many years as cough medicine. In 2009 it was found to also act as a pharmacological chaperone (PC) for mutant glucocerebrosidase, albeit in a several-fold higher dose. Unfortunately, due to its low cost, there have been no pharma-driven clinical trials to establish the use of ambroxol. Thus, data are needed on the safety and efficacy of ambroxol for patients with Gaucher disease (GD).

The ICGG Gaucher Registry is an ongoing, international multi-center, strictly observational program that tracks the routine clinical outcomes for patients with Gaucher 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 objectives of the Registry are: To enhance understanding of the variability, progression, identification, and natural history of Gaucher disease, with the ultimate goal of better guiding and assessing therapeutic intervention. To assist the Gaucher medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients, and to provide reports on patient outcomes, to optimize patient care. To characterize the Gaucher disease population. To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of imiglucerase and of eliglustat. Gaucher Pregnancy Sub-registry: The primary objective of this Sub-registry is to track pregnancy outcomes, including complications and infant growth, in all women with Gaucher disease during pregnancy, regardless of whether they receive disease-specific therapy. 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.

The main aim of this study is to learn if velaglucerase alfa (VPRIV) improves growth and symptoms in participants up to 5 years of age with Gaucher disease. Symptoms will be checked with blood tests. This study is about collecting data available in the participant's medical record as well as data from each participant's ongoing treatment. No study medicines will be provided to participants in this study. The study sponsor will not be involved in how participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study. When the participants start the study, they will visit the study clinic every 6 months after their first visit.

The Gaucher Outcomes Survey (GOS) is an ongoing observational, international, multi-center, long-term Registry of Patients with Gaucher Disease irrespective of their treatment status or type of treatment received. No experimental intervention is involved. Patients undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by the patients' treating physician. The objectives of the registry include to evaluate the safety and long-term effectiveness of velaglucerase alfa, to characterize patients receiving velaglucerase alfa or other Gaucher Disease-specific treatments, to gain a better understanding of the natural history of GD and to serve as a database for evidence-based management of Gaucher Disease over time in real-life clinical practice.

Substances in the body, so-called biomarkers, can help predict the severity of Gaucher disease (GD)-related bone problems in adults. The main aim of the study is to determine if certain biomarkers found in the body at the time of diagnosing GD can help predict the risk of bone problems after 4-5 years. There is no treatment involved in this study. The study will review previously collected participants' data using a database. Data from both adults with type 1 Gaucher condition as well as healthy adults will be compared.
