The Efficacy and Safety of Switch Between Agalsidase Beta to Agalsidase Alfa for Enzyme Replacement in Patients With Anderson-Fabry Disease (SWITCH)
International Observational Retrospective Case Review of Efficacy and Safety of Switch Between Agalsidase Beta to Agalsidase Alfa for Enzyme Replacement in Males and Females With Anderson-Fabry Disease

Detailed Description
Aim:
Anderson-Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder resulting from deficiency of the hydrolytic enzyme alfa galactosidase A. Trials of specific therapy by replacement of alfa galactosidase A were commenced in 1999 and subsequently two preparations of alfa galactosidase A received marketing approval by the EMEA in 2001. Clinical trials, observational studies and registry data have provided evidence for efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with alfa galactosidase A in improving symptoms of pain, gastrointestinal disturbance, hypohidrosis, left ventricular mass index, glomerular filtration rate and quality of life in men. There is currently no long-term data showing the impact of enzyme replacement therapy on overall survival. It has been suggested that earlier therapy, before the onset of end organ manifestations, would be more likely to prevent further damage and therefore have the biggest effect on overall survival. There is as yet little evidence to substantiate this hypothesis however clinical trials have recently demonstrated safety and therapeutic effects of enzyme replacement in children.
So far, there are only limited data available on the clinical course of the disease and adverse events in patients, switching from one therapeutic alternative to the other. West and Lemoine (16) report clinical effects of a switch from Agalsidase beta to agalsidase alfa in 5 patients with Fabry disease due to shortage of agalsidase beta. The patients were treated with Replagal® for 44 weeks at an average.
