E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Fabry disease is a rare, inherited disease caused by a genetic defect which leads to an accumulation of fatty substance in the body. Symptoms include stomach pain and damage to vital organs. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
• To determine the effect of lucerastat on neuropathic pain in subjects with Fabry disease (FD). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
• To determine the effects of lucerastat on gastro-intestinal (GI) symptoms (abdominal pain and diarrhea) in subjects with FD and GI symptom(s) at baseline. • To confirm the effect of lucerastat on biomarkers of FD. • To determine the safety and tolerability of lucerastat in subjects with FD.
|
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
PK profile sub-study (all sites): A sub-study will be conducted at all sites to determine the PK profile of lucerastat at steady state in a subgroup of approximately 36 subjects with FD with either normal or subnormal renal function (i.e., screening eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) or impaired renal function (i.e., screening eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). If necessary, blood samples collected for PK may be used for the identification of potential metabolites of lucerastat in this population. Subjects consenting to this sub study will have a 12-hour PK profile performed at the Month 1 visit. |
|
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Signed and dated ICF prior to any study-mandated procedure. 2. Male or female subjects; 18-years old and above. 3. FD diagnosis confirmed with local genetic test results (i.e., presence of at least 1 mutation in GLA, the gene coding for α-galactosidase A) 4. Fabry-associated neuropathic pain, as defined by the subject, in the last 3 months prior to screening.
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Pregnant, planning to be become pregnant up to 30 days after study treatment discontinuation or lactating subject; 2. Severe renal insufficiency defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) per the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine equation < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 at screening; 3. Subject on regular dialysis for the treatment of chronic kidney disease; 4. Subject has undergone, or is on a waiting list for, or is scheduled to undergo kidney or other organ transplantation; 5. Known and documented transient ischemic attack, stroke, unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening; 6. Clinically significant unstable cardiac disease in the opinion of the investigator (e.g., uncontrolled symptomatic arrhythmia, New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure); 7. Any other subject at high risk for developing clinical signs of organ involvement within the time period of the study, as per investigator judgment; 8. Subject planned for imminent initiation of treatment with ERT. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary efficacy endpoint is change from baseline to Month 6 in the "modified" Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form item 3 (BPI-SF3) score of "neuropathic pain at its worst in the last 24 hours". |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
• Change from baseline to Month 6 in the 11-point Numerical Rating Scale (NRS-11) score of “abdominal pain at its worst in the last 24 hours” in subjects with GI symptoms at baseline. • Change from baseline to Month 6 in the number of days with at least one stool of a Bristol Stool Scale (BSS) consistency Type 6 or 7 in subjects with GI symptoms at baseline. • Change from baseline to Month 6 in plasma globotriaosylceramide (Gb3).
