Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to Clinically Significant Progression of Cardiac Disease, Cerebrovascular Disease, and/or Death Among Fabry Patients With Severe Kidney Disease7 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
NameTimeMethod
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.
