Trial summary

Fabry disease (OMIM 301500) is an X-linked inborn error of sphingolipid metabolism resulting from the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. Heterozygous females for Fabry disease may be symptomatic with cardiac, renal or cerebrovascular involvement. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Phase 4, Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Alpha-Galactosidase A (Agalsidase Beta, FABRAZYME) in Heterozygous Females for Fabry Disease

Fabry disease (OMIM 301500) is an X-linked inborn error of sphingolipid metabolism resulting from the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. Heterozygous females for Fabry disease may be symptomatic with cardiac, renal or cerebrovascular involvement. Clearance of Gb3 and stabilization of renal function has been demonstrated in male patients treated with agalsidase beta (FABRAZYME). In contrast, no randomized, controlled study of the efficacy of recombinant alpha-galactosidase A has been reported in heterozygotes for Fabry disease.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective is to evaluate cardiac left ventricular mass (measured with echocardiography by unique investigator) in females over 15 years of age affected with Fabry disease receiving 70 mg of agalsidase beta every other week, as compared with an untreated controlled group matched for gender and age.

The secondary objectives include evaluation of :

  • left ventricular posterior wall thickness (echocardiography)
  • interventricular septum thickness (echocardiography)
  • tissue doppler imaging (myocardial function)
  • EKG
  • creatinaemia
  • serum cystatin C level
  • urinary protein/creatinine ratio
  • microalbuminuria
  • Gb3 urinary levels

Evaluation of tolerance and safety with :

  • Home therapy infusions follow up
  • Vitals
  • Physical examination
  • Adverse events
  • Antibodies levels

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing recombinant alpha-galactosidase A in people with Fabry Disease, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Dominique P GERMAIN, MD, PhD (+33156092306, dominique.germain@egp.aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricular mass (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jun 2007.
