Brief Summary

Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD) is one of the rare lysosomal storage disorders for which a cause - specific therapy is available. Recently, a new specific drug has been marketed, namely Migalastat, a small-molecule pharmacological chaperone. The effect of Migalastat on cardiac involvement has been assessed so far by 2D echocardiography, demonstrating a significant reduction in left ventricular (LV) mass after 18 months of therapy. Calculation of LV mass by 2D echocardiography is limited by geometrical assumptions and quality of echocardiographic window, with a strong impact on accuracy. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) overcomes these limitations, thus representing the gold standard technique for ventricular mass, volumes and function estimation. Moreover, CMR offers the unique possibility to perform a non-invasive tissue characterization, including the detection of both myocardial fibrosis by Late Gadolinium Enhancement and sphingolipid storage by T1 mapping. Beyond an accurate morphological description and a detailed tissue characterization, a complete cardiological assessment should also integrate functional data and bio-humoral profile. This study is designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the therapeutic effect of Migalastat (123 mg every other day) on cardiac involvement after 18 months of therapy, integrating a morphological, functional and bio-humoral assessment.

Study Population

Between patients with genetic diagnosis of AFD referred for CMR at Policlinico San Donato, 15 patients with amenable mutation, clinical indication to Migalastat and signs of early or overt cardiac involvement (low myocardial native T1 value ± left ventricular hypertrophy) will be enrolled.

  • Clinical indication to Migalastat
  • Signs of clinical or preclinical cardiac involvement (low T1 values with or without left ventricular hypertrophy)
  • Age \>16
  • Ability to give a complete informed consent (for minor patients informed consent will be given by parents)

You may not qualify if:

  • Contraindication to Migalastat (pregnancy, age \<16, Glomerular Filtration Rate \<30 ml/min, hypersensitivity to the active ingredient)
  • Contraindication to CMR study (metallic fragment or foreign body, known claustrophobia, PaceMaker/Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator not CMR conditional, electronic implant or device, eg, insulin pump or other infusion pump)
