Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Compare levels of lipids between well characterised enzymatically-genetically-phenotypically patients with Fabry disease and healthy controls (with no Fabry disease).

Correlate levels of lipids in patients with Fabry disease to clinical outcomes/manifestations of the disease.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    The hypothesis is that Sphingosine-1 Phosphate (S1P) or any other related sphingoid bases and/or other lipid class could be a marker of the severity of cardiovascular remodelling in Fabry disease.

    The overall approach is, by minimising possible pre-analytical and analytical biases, to study by lipidomics in well characterised enzymatically, genetically and phenotypically patients with Fabry disease, if S1P or any other lipid (including other glycosphingolipids) is shown to be a biomarker for the diagnosis, monitoring of disease activity and prognosis (including cardiovascular outcomes).

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Patients with Fabry disease

    Adult men and women with well characterized Fabry disease

    Healthy controls (with no Fabry disease)

    Adult men and women from the endocrinology and nephrology in- or out-patient clinic

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Lipidomics [Samples are going be collected during 1 year at the fasting state in the morning. At a random day in both Fabry patients with no treatment and cases. Up to 24 hours before next treatment in Fabry patients with ongoing treatment.]

      Lipid species from several lipid classes
