NCT06884358

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to observe the relation between excercise parameters - assessed by CPET - and rest/stress hemodynamic parameters - assessed by echocardiogram and CMR - in patients with a genetic diagnosis of Anderson-Fabry Disease. Participants will undergo:

  • baseline evaluation: clinical evaluation, disease staging with FASTEX and MSSI, KCCQ for quality of life assessment, resting 12-leads ECG, 6MWT, CPET-ESE and contrast-enhanced CMR;
  • before 36 months from baseline: resting 12-leads ECG, 2D rest and stress echocardiogram, CPET-ESE, contrast-enhanced CMR, disease staging with FASTEX and MSSI and KCCQ for quality of life assessment;
  • up to 7 years from baseline: clinical follow-up.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patient with AFD from Italian referral centers.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with a genetic diagnosis of AFD, according to current guidelines;
  • Informed written consent with the understanding that consent may be withdrawn by the patient at any time without prejudice to future medical care (for patients age \<18 years old, written consent from a caregiver is mandatory).

You may not qualify if:
