简要总结
People with Fabry disease have an alteration in their genetic material (DNA) which causes a deficiency of the a-galactosidase A enzyme. This enzyme helps to break down and remove certain types of fatty substances called "glycolipids". These glycolipids are normally present within the body in most cells. In people with 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 levels (also referred to as "globotriaosylceramide" or "GL-3") in these tissues is thought to cause the clinical symptoms that are common to Fabry disease. Symptoms commonly appear during childhood with pain in the hands and feet. This study explored the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of Fabrazyme in pediatric patients aged between 7 and 15 years.

结局指标
主要结局
Globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) Clearance in Capillary Endothelium in the Skin
时间窗: Baseline, Week 24 and Week 48
Skin biopsies were taken at Baseline, Week 24 and Week 48 and analyzed for cellular GL-3 accumulation (inclusions) by light microscopy. Each biopsy was evaluated by pathologists for the total number of vessels with GL-3 accumulation on an inclusion severity score of 0 (none/trace), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), and 3 (severe).
次要结局
- Plasma GL-3(Baseline, Week 24 and Week 48)
