A Study of Two Fabrazyme (Agalsidase Beta) Dosing Regimens in Treatment-naïve, Male Pediatric Patients Without Severe Symptoms (FIELD)

May 20, 2016 updated by: Genzyme, a Sanofi Company

A Randomized, Multicenter, Multinational, Phase 3B, Open-Label, Parallel-Group Study of Fabrazyme (Agalsidase Beta) in Treatment-Naïve Male Pediatric Patients With Fabry Disease Without Severe Symptoms

The purpose of this study was to determine whether 2 alternative dosing regimens of Fabrazyme (Agalsidase beta) (1.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks or 0.5 mg/kg every 2 weeks) were effective in treatment-naïve pediatric participants without severe symptoms. Participants were to be treated for 5 years.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

5 years to 18 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The participant and/or participant's parent(s)/legal guardian(s) must provide written informed assent/consent prior to any protocol-related procedures being performed.
  • The participant must had a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease as documented by leukocyte α-Galactosidase A (αGAL) activity of <4 nmol/hr/mg leukocyte (preferred assay; resulted from a central laboratory). If the leukocyte αGAL activity assay was difficult to obtain, the participant might be enrolled based on documented plasma αGAL <1.5 nmol/hr/mL, with the agreement of the Medical Monitor (resulted from a central laboratory).
  • The participant must had evidence of globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) accumulation as documented by plasma GL-3 (>7.0 µg/mL) or urinary GL-3 (>0.3 mg GL-3/mmol creatinine) levels (results from a central laboratory).
  • The participant must be male ≥5 and ≤18 years of age.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant had albuminuria (first morning void urinary albumin/creatinine ratio >30 mg/g on at least 2 out of 3 consecutive samples, each at least 1 week apart).
  • Participant had a Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) by iohexol <90 L/min/1.73m^2. In case of properly documented low protein intake, values as low as 80 mL/min/1.73 m^2 might be acceptable, after consultation with the Medical Monitor.
  • Participant had documented evidence of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), or if a brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) had been performed, bright lesions >2 mm on T2- or fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR)- weighted images within the white matter or the basal ganglia.
  • Participant had severe and recurrent acroparesthesia, judged by the physician as frequent (more than once a week) pain episodes for at least 3 months that influenced daily activities, irrespective of medication.
  • Participant had an end-diastolic left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWTd) and/or an end-diastolic interventricular septum thickness (IVSTd)≥2 standard deviations (SD) compared to normal (based on body surface area [BSA] normal ranges from Kampmann, et al 2000) as read at the study site.
  • Participant had received prior treatment specific to Fabry Disease.
  • Participant had participated in a study employing an investigational drug within 30 days of the start of their participation in this study.
  • Participant had any medical condition or extenuating circumstance, which in the opinion of the Study Investigator, could interfere with study compliance.
  • Participant had any medical condition or extenuating circumstance, for example diabetes mellitus, which in the opinion of the Study Investigator, could interfere with the interpretation of study results.
  • Participant was on treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEIs/ARBs).
  • Participant had any contra-indication mentioned in the labeling of Fabrazyme and/or iohexol (Omnipaque).
  • Participant or parent(s)/legal guardian(s) was unwilling to comply with the requirements of the protocol.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Skin Globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) Clearance From Superficial Skin Capillary Endothelium
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 52, Week 156 and Week 260
Skin biopsies were taken at Baseline, Week 52, Week 156 and Week 260 or early withdrawal and analyzed for cellular GL-3 accumulation (inclusions) by light microscopy. Each biopsy was scored for GL-3 accumulation on a severity score-scale of none, mild, moderate, severe (0-1-2-3). Scores are categorized as normal (score = 0) or abnormal (score = 1, 2 or 3). Data was summarized in terms of number of participants with none/trace, mild, moderate and severe biopsy scores.
Baseline, Week 52, Week 156 and Week 260

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent Change From Baseline in GL-3 Clearance From Plasma
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12, 28, 40, 52, 80, 104, 132, 156, 184, 208, 236 and 260
Plasma samples were assayed for GL-3 clearance using a validated tandem mass spectrometry with an upper limit of normal plasma GL-3 level of 7.0 μg/mL. Number of participants analyzed=participants with both baseline and post-baseline GL-3 plasma clearance assessment. Here 'n' signifies number of participants with available data for specified category.

Number of participants analyzed=participants with both baseline and post-baseline GL-3 urine clearance assessment. Here 'n' signifies number of participants with available data for specified category.
