Brief Summary

BIO-AGA-Fase III-001 is a Phase III, prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-group, baseline-controlled, switch over clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AGA BETA BS in patients with FD already treated and previously stabilized with Fabrazyme®.

Detailed Description

BIO-AGA-Fase III-001 is a Phase III, prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-group, baseline-controlled, switch over clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AGA BETA BS in patients with FD already treated and previously stabilized with Fabrazyme®.

The study will be conducted in 2 parts: a 5-week Lead-in period (period 1) and 54 week treatment period (period 2). During period 1 all participants will receive 2 intravenous (IV) infusions of Fabrazyme®, provided by Biosidus. After that, in period 2 all participants will switch treatment to AGA BETA BS.

A total of up to 20 participants are planned for the study.

•The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the equivalence in efficacy between AGA BETA BS and Fabrazyme® after 6 months of treatment in participants with Fabry disease previously stabilized with Fabrazyme, by measuring disease biomarker (mean plasma Lyso-Gb3 marker ratio after 26 weeks of treatment, defined as plasma level of the marker Lyso-Gb3 after 26 weeks (6 months) divided by plasma level of the marker Lyso-Gb3 at baseline).
