  • Research summary

    This is a phase III open-label, long-term extension study funded by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The purpose of the study is to investigate the long-term safety and effectiveness of migalastat hydrochloride (HCl) (the experimental drug being tested) in subjects with fabry disease. Subjects enrolled in this study will have completed treatment in a previous study with migalastat HCl and so this study is intended to provide continued treatment with migalastat HCl for these subjects. It is expected that at least 100 subjects will be eligible to enter this study. Approximately 10 participants will be recruited in the UK. The duration of participation could be up to 4 years. The study will consist of a baseline visit which will be performed on the same day as the final visit of the previous study, followed by clinic visits every 6 months for each year of the study. The planned duration of the treatment will vary among subjects and will continue until the date of marketing approval of migalastat HCl or study closure by GSK. All subjects will receive an oral dose of 150mg of migalastat HCl every second day. This study involves procedures including:- Physical examination, vital signs, ECG, heart echo, blood tests, urine tests and subject health questionnaires.
