About this study

Official title: Impact of Agalsidase Alfa Therapy on Cardiac funcTION in Patients With Fabry's Cardiomyopathy (ACTION-Fabry Trial)

Study Design: This is an observational study. No treatment or intervention will be assigned to the subjects. All patients will receive full standard of care concomitant medication for the treatment of their cardiac condition. 25 patients with genetically confirmed Anderson-Fabry disease who have a plan to start ERT with Agalsidase Alfa will undergo 2D strain, diastolic stress echocardiography, LV vortex flow analysis, and CMR at baseline and after 1 year of treatment with ERT with Agalsidase Alfa for follow-up.

Read the detailed description
  1. Objectives - The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of ERT with Agalsidase Alfa on LV diastolic function and flow in patients with Fabry's cardiomyopathy using LV 2D strain, diastolic stress echocardiography, LV vortex flow and CMR.
  2. Primary / Secondary Endpoint 1) Primary endpoint:
  • Change from baseline in peak exercise E/E' by diastolic stress echocardiography, global longitudinal strain and LV vortex flow parameters at 1 year 2) Secondary endpoints:
  • Changes from baseline in extracellular volume by CMR (T1 mapping) at 1 year follow up
  • Changes from baseline in evaluation of the degree of the resting LV diastolic function
  • Changes from baseline in other echo-parameters; LV mass index, reduction of peak exercise E/E prime at 1 year follow up
  • Changes from baseline in quality of life using questionnaire ⑤ Change from baseline in peak VO2, exercise time, AT by diastolic stress echocardiography at 1 year follow up ⑥ Change in T1 baseline (myo, ms) \& T1 baseline (blood, ms), T1 postcontrast (myo, ms) \& T1 baseline (blood, ms) by CMR
  1. Study Methods 1) Study Design: This is an observational study. No treatment or intervention will be assigned to the subjects. All patients will receive full standard of care concomitant medication for the treatment of their cardiac condition. 25 patients with genetically confirmed Anderson-Fabry disease who have a plan to start ERT with Agalsidase Alfa will undergo 2D strain, diastolic stress echocardiography, LV vortex flow analysis, and CMR at baseline and after 1 year of treatment with ERT with Agalsidase Alfa for follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fabry Disease, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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 24 Jun 2021. 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 South Korea. 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.

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 Geu-Ru Hong, MD, Ph.D (82-2-2228-8443, grhong@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

peak exercise E/E' by diastolic stress echocardiography (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jun 2021.
