Filter by:The aim of the present study is to compare intraocular pressure (IOP) values assessed with Ocular Response Analyzer to the classical gold standard of IOP measurement, to Goldmann applanation tonometry by mucopolysacchyridosis-, Fabry-patients and healthy controls. We want to investigate biomechanical characteristics of the cornea and their influence on the IOP-measurements.
This is the first human treatment with PRX-102, an enzyme being developed as a long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease (alpha galactosidase deficiency). The safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy will be evaluated in this study of increasing doses. Patients will be treated with infusions every two weeks for 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of GC1119 (recombinant human α-galactosidase A) for enzyme replacement therapy in Fabry disease patients.
This is an exploratory study to evaluate changes in glycosphingolipid levels and other (exploratory) Fabry disease parameters in male Fabry disease participants who were previously treated with agalsidase alfa (Replagal®) 0.2 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) every two weeks (q2w) and who are being switched to agalsidase beta (Fabrazyme®) 1.0 mg/kg q2w.
The objective of this study is to investigate whether Agalsidase alpha, a drug commonly prescribed in patients with Fabry disease, is associated with improvement of the pulmonary involvement. According to the Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), the surrogate markers for obstructive lung diseases are a decrease in both forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and FEV1/FVC ratio, whereas FVC is the forced vital capacity. However, the measurement of these lung function parameters is indicated as yearly follow-up examinations with or without the treatment of Agalsidase alpha in patients with Fabry disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy of gabapentin vs. placebo at controlling peripheral neuropathic pain in patients with Fabry disease, and reducing their use of opioid analgesics. The investigators are conducting a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, single center, cross-over study. The primary endpoint is percent reduction in patients' use of hydrocodone-acetaminophen.
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: 1. Much of the natural history of Fabry renal structural changes will occur without detectable renal functional alterations. 2. 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. 3. 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: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. Affected cells will be cleared of GL-3 equivalently in females and males.
A 5-period crossover study to evaluate the effect of meal type and timing on migalastat HCl pharmacokinetics in healthy male and female subjects. Subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 5 treatment sequences and will receive each treatment over the course of 5 weekly periods.
This program allows physicians to request permission from Amicus Therapeutics (Amicus) for treatment access to migalastat hydrochloride (HCl) for specific adult patients with Fabry disease. Treatment is open label for 6 months with renewal every 6 months.
This was a long-term, open-label study of migalastat (123 milligrams [mg] of migalastat [equivalent to 150 mg of migalastat hydrochloride]) (migalastat) in participants with Fabry disease who completed treatment in a previous monotherapy trial with migalastat.
