Summary

This trial tests ST-920, a treatment using a virus to deliver a gene that helps produce an important enzyme in patients with Fabry disease. The goal is to help these patients by continuously making the enzyme to reduce harmful substances in their bodies. ST-920 is a gene therapy treatment for Fabry disease, which aims to deliver a gene to produce the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, addressing the enzyme deficiency central to the disease.

Who is the study for?
Adults with Fabry disease can join this trial. For the cardiac group, they need heart changes like left ventricular hypertrophy or other signs of worsening disease. The renal group requires specific kidney function levels and a history of declining function. All participants must be COVID-19 vaccinated at least one month before treatment.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing ST-920, a gene therapy designed to produce the enzyme α-Gal A in people with Fabry disease. It's given as a single intravenous dose, aiming to reduce or clear harmful substances in the body caused by the disease over a 52-week period.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed but may include reactions related to immune response against the viral vector (AAV6) used for gene delivery or components of ST-920 formulation.

Other Research
The ST-920 trial involves a gene therapy using a recombinant AAV2/6 vector to deliver the cDNA for human alpha-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) into patients. This therapy aims to enable the stable, long-term production of the α-Gal A enzyme, which is deficient in Fabry Disease patients. The presence of functional α-Gal A is crucial as it helps break down globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and lyso-Gb3, substrates that accumulate in the cells of Fabry Disease patients, leading to various symptoms and organ damage. By restoring the enzyme's activity, this treatment can potentially reduce or clear these harmful substrates, improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
