Cardiovasculorenal Phenotyping in Fabry Disease Through Noninvasive Testing

Recruiting
Conditions
Fabry Disease
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Measures of arterial stiffness and endothelial function
Diagnostic Test: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
Diagnostic Test: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET)
Diagnostic Test: Serum and urine biomarkers
Registration Number
NCT05699265
Lead Sponsor
Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati
Brief Summary

A longitudinal pilot study will be conducted to determine if there are additional testing modalities that are effective in broadly phenotyping subclinical dysfunction in patients with Fabry disease. Individual patients will undergo serial testing over a two-year period to evaluate for changes in their cardiovasculaorenal function during this period. Novel modalities evaluated will include measures of arterial stiffness, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), and novel serum and urine biomarkers. The benefit of these measures being evaluated is that they are noninvasive, can be performed rapidly, and have reduced costs compared to the current standard screening modalities. Results from these evaluations will be compared to cMRI and standard urine and serum biomarkers performed clinically per local standard of care. The results will also be compared to both published normative data and data from patients with diabetes mellitus, who have a similar microvascular disease process to patients with Fabry disease.
