BALANCE: Study of the Safety and Efficacy of PRX-102 Compared to Agalsidase Beta on Renal Function
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a randomized, double blind, active control study of PRX-102 (pegunigalsidase alfa) in Fabry disease patients with impaired renal function. Patients treated for approximately 1 year with agalsidase beta and on a stable dose for at least 6 months will be screened and then randomized to continue treatment with 1mg/kg agalsidase beta or to treatment with 1 mg/kg of PRX-102. The identity of the enzyme will be blinded to the patient and the investigator. Patients will receive intravenous infusions every two weeks. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio of PRX-102 to agalsidase beta. Randomization will be stratified by urinary protein to creatinine ratio (UPCR) of < or ≥ 1 g/g by spot urine sample. No more than 50% of the patients will be female.
