Brief summary

This Phase 4 study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of Fabrazyme at current approved dose with increases in the infusion rate and reduced infusion volume. This study aims to generate data to provide the guidance on how infusion rate can be safely increased and minimize the burden of the life-long treatment with Fabrazyme.

Detailed description

The total duration will be up to 7 months

Inclusion criteria

\- Participants with confirmed diagnosis of FD who are ≥2 and ≤65 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF) or assent, if applicable. * Cohort 1: female participants with body weight ≥30 kg who have been treated with Fabrazyme for at least 3 months without IARs during the most recent 3 infusions. * Cohort 2: non-classic male participants with body weight ≥30 kg who have been treated with Fabrazyme for at least 3 months without IARs during the most recent 3 infusions. * Cohort 3: classic male participants with body weight ≥30 kg who have been treated with Fabrazyme for at least 3 months without IARs during the most recent 3 infusions. * Cohort 4: participants with body weight \<30 kg who have been treated with Fabrazyme for at least 3 months without IARs during the most recent 3 infusions. Women of childbearing potential must use a highly effective method of contraception through the study.

Exclusion criteria

* Female participants who are pregnant or breastfeeding. * History of significant allergic disease or hypersensitivity to Fabrazyme or other medicinal products. * Contraindication to Fabrazyme or any of the premedications or rescue medications (diphenhydramine, loratadine, cetirizine, fexofenadine, acetaminophen, montelukast, dexamethasone). * Any other medical condition considered to make the increased infusion rate not tolerable at the Investigator's discretion. The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a potential participation in a clinical trial.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percent Reduction in Shortest Tolerated Infusion Duration From Pre-study Average of Recent 3 InfusionsUp to 16 weeksPercent reduction was with respect to the shortest tolerated infusion for the participant. The shortest infusion duration tolerated was the actual shortest duration (highest infusion rate) of a completed infusion tolerated by the participant without experiencing a second infusion associated reaction (IAR). The pre-study infusion duration was derived as the average of the duration of 3 most recent infusions the participant received prior to participating to this study. Percent reduction of infusion duration was calculated as: 100 x (average of pre-study infusion duration \[minutes\] - actual shortest infusion duration tolerated \[minutes\]) / average of pre-study infusion duration (minutes).
Shortest Actual Tolerated Infusion DurationUp to 16 weeksThe shortest infusion duration tolerated was the actual shortest duration (highest infusion rate) of a completed infusion tolerated by the participant without experiencing a second IAR. IARs were events recorded as adverse event of special interest (AESI) and were defined as AEs the Investigator considered related to Fabrazyme® infusion, that occurred on same day as infusion and only after infusion had begun.
