Key considerations for measuring α-galactosidase A activity after long-term migalastat therapy―Avoiding in vitro inhibition effects [PDF]
Assessment of α-galactosidase A (α-GAL) activity is a reliable method for evaluating the pharmacological efficacy of migalastat (Galafold) in Fabry disease patients undergoing chaperone therapy.

Treatment-related benefit and satisfaction in patients with Fabry disease in France: insight into patients’ expectations and preferences from the prospective, non-interventional SATIS-Fab study [PDF]
Background Fabry disease (FD) is a progressive X-linked lysosomal disorder caused by GLA variants resulting in deficient α-galactosidase A enzyme activity, glycolipid accumulation, and multisystemic dysfunction.

Impact of migalastat therapy on corneal deposits in a female with Fabry disease: A case report [PDF]
Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by alpha-galactosidase A deficiency, leading to globotriaosylceramide accumulation in multiple organs, including the eye, where corneal verticillata represents a typical sign.

Impact of migalastat on cerebral outcomes in fabry disease – results from the prospective observational FAMOUS trial [PDF]
Background Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the α-galactosidase A (GLA) gene, leading to an increased risk for white matter lesion (WML), stroke and cerebral microbleeds.

Dapagliflozin in Patients With CKD With Fabry Disease [PDF]
Introduction: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been demonstrated to reduce proteinuria and disease progression in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but data in Fabry disease (FD) are scant.
