A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Fabrazyme in Patients With Fabry Disease

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Fabry Disease
Registration Number
NCT00081497
Lead Sponsor
Genzyme, a Sanofi Company
Brief Summary

People with Fabry Disease have an alteration in their genetic material (DNA) which causes a deficiency of the alpha-galactosidase A enzyme. Fabrazyme (agalsidase beta) is a drug that helps to break down and removes certain types of fatty substances called "glycolipids". These glycolipids are normally present within the body in most cells. In Fabry disease, glycolipids build up in various tissues such as the liver, kidney, skin, and blood vessels because a-galactosidase A is not present, or is present in small quantities. The build up of glycolipid (globatriaosylceramide or GL-3) levels in these tissues in particular is thought to cause the clinical symptoms that are common to Fabry disease. This study analyzed the safety and efficacy of Fabrazyme in the treatment of patients with Fabry disease that previously participated in the AGAL-008-00 (NCT0074984) study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Difference in Inverse Serum Creatinine Within Patients' Slopes Between the Placebo AGAL-008-00 (NCT00074984) and Fabrazyme AGAL02503 (NCT00081497) PeriodsPlacebo period AGAL-008-00 (up to 35 months) through Fabrazyme period AGAL02503 (18 months)

The primary efficacy analysis was the summary of change in slope of inverse serum creatinine for Placebo/Fabrazyme patients in the Intent to Treat (ITT) Population. It compared the placebo period slope with the Fabrazyme period slope.
