Dose-ranging Study of PRX-102 in Adult Fabry Disease Patients

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2016-03-06
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This is the first human treatment with PRX-102, an enzyme being developed as a long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease (alpha galactosidase deficiency). The safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy will be evaluated in this study of increasing doses. Patients will be treated with infusions every two weeks for 12 months.

• Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

• Lead Sponsor: Protalix

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Symptomatic adult Fabry patients (≥18 yrs)

• Males: plasma and/or leucocyte alpha galactosidase activity (by activity assay) less than lower limit of normal (LLN in plasma=3.2 nmol/hr/ml, LLN in leucocytes=32 nmol/hr/mg/protein)

• Females: historical genetic test results consistent with Fabry mutations

• Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) concentration in urine > 1.5 times upper normal limit

• Patients who have never received enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in the past, or patients who have not received ERT in the past 6 months and have a negative anti alpha galactosidase antibody test

• eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73m2

• The patient signs informed consent

• Female patients and male patients whose co-partners are of child-bearing potential agree to use a medically acceptable method of contraception, not including the rhythm method

Exclusion Criteria:
