Safety and Effect of Oral RVX000222 in Subjects With Fabry Disease
NaSingle-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
Fabry Disease (FD) is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by mutations in the GLA gene which translates into decreased activity or lack of function of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (α-GAL A) and accumulation of the enzymes substrate, i.e., Gb3, throughout the body. Cardiovascular and renal complications are among the leading causes of death in FD patients. RVX000222 is a BET inhibitor which modulates the expression of a variety of genes and, due to its effects on pathways downstream of substrate accumulation and reduction of major cardiac events, holds promise as a potential add-on therapy to accompany enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in FD patients.
