Group Intervention Description Fabrazyme 1mg/kg every 2 weeks Fabrazyme (agalsidase beta) Fabrazyme 1.0 mg/kg every 2 weeks Fabrazyme 3mg/kg every 2 weeks Fabrazyme (agalsidase beta) Fabrazyme 3.0 mg/kg every 2 weeks
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to Clinically Significant Progression of Cardiac Disease, Cerebrovascular Disease, and/or Death Among Fabry Patients With Severe Kidney Disease 7 months The trial was terminated early due to inadequate study design. During the study period of 7 months, only 1 patient had a clinical event, a stroke, in the Fabrazyme 1 mg/kg treatment arm. The time to event was determined from first dose of Fabrazyme to the date of event.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Plasma Globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) Evaluated at Baseline, Month 3, and Final Visit This outcome measure evaluated the mean plasma GL-3 values for all patients to see if it decreased while on Fabrazyme. Normal plasma GL-3 level is defined as ≤ 7.03 µg/mL.
