Fabry disease patients may naturally have higher levels of neutralizing antibodies against Fabrazyme (agalsidase beta) than against Protalix BioTherapeutics‘ investigational PRX-102 (pegunigalsidase alfa), BALANCE Phase 3 trial data suggest. As antibodies can limit the effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapies, developing less of them suggests that…

One-year treatment with Protalix BioTherapeutics‘ investigational enzyme replacement therapy PRX-102 (pegunigalsidase alfa) is safe, well-tolerated and appears to more effectively slow kidney disease progression in Fabry disease patients previously treated with Replagal (agalsidase alpha), results from a Phase 3 clinical trial suggest. Patients also experienced…
