NCT06050967

Brief Summary

An open-labeled, prospective, single-center proof-of-concept study. Patients with Gaucher Disease aged 18-75 who received intravenous Enzyme Replacement Therapy once every two weeks were enrolled. The study utilized the Altus Care™ cellular phone-based application, which integrated an algorithm-based approach to provide random dosing regimens within a pre-defined range determined by the physician. The app allowed personalized therapeutic regimens with variations in dosages and administration times.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Platelet

    number of platelets per L. normal range 150,000 to 450,000. In Gaucher disease lower platelets means higher disease activity

    6 month

  • Hemoglobin

    Hemoglobin concentration in gram/dl. normal range 13.8 to 17.2 for males and 12.1 to 15.1 for females. The lower the hemoglobin the higher Gaucher disease activity

    6 month

  • Lyso GB1

    Lyso GB1 level in ng/ml. For healthy individuals the levels should be trace less than 4.9ng/ml. In patients with Gaucher disease the higher the level the higher the disease activity.

    6 month

  • SF-36

    score of 0-100. 0 means worse and 100 means best.

individualized treatment plan with random dosage and time of administration

EXPERIMENTAL

Baseline clinical and laboratory parameters acquired at the screening included: a physical examination, complete blood count (CBC), Lyso-GB1 , and a 36-item short-form survey (SF-36) for quality-of-life examination. Once providing informed consent, the Altus Care™ application was installed on the patient's cellular phone. In coordination with the patient's treating physician and the home treating nurse5 , an individualized treatment plan was prepared for each patient within a pre-defined range of minimal and maximal once in two weeks ERT dosages and timing frames for its administration. Per protocol, the patient's monthly dose wasn't changed, but each dose and the timing of administration was changed randomly using the app.

Interventions

In coordination with the patient's treating physician and the home treating nurse, an individualized treatment plan was prepared for each patient within a pre-defined range of minimal and maximal once in two weeks enzyme replacement therapy dosages and timing frames for its administration. Per protocol, the patient's monthly dose was not changed, but each dose and the timing of administration was changed randomly using the app.
