Studying Lipids as Potential Biomarkers in Patients With Fabry Disease

Completed
Conditions
Fabry Disease
Registration Number
NCT05046379
Lead Sponsor
Vastra Gotaland Region
Brief Summary

Compare levels of lipids between well characterised enzymatically-genetically-phenotypically patients with Fabry disease and healthy controls (with no Fabry disease).

Correlate levels of lipids in patients with Fabry disease to clinical outcomes/manifestations of the disease.

Detailed Description

The hypothesis is that Sphingosine-1 Phosphate (S1P) or any other related sphingoid bases and/or other lipid class could be a marker of the severity of cardiovascular remodelling in Fabry disease.

The overall approach is, by minimising possible pre-analytical and analytical biases, to study by lipidomics in well characterised enzymatically, genetically and phenotypically patients with Fabry disease, if S1P or any other lipid (including other glycosphingolipids) is shown to be a biomarker for the diagnosis, monitoring of disease activity and prognosis (including cardiovascular outcomes).
