Summary

The primary hypothesis is that titration of ACE inhibitor and Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs)to reduce urine protein excretion to \< 500 mg per day in Fabry Patients receiving agalsidase beta therapy at 1 mg/kg every two weeks will slow the progression rate of decline of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) compared to case controls drawn from the Genzyme-sponsored Phase III extension study (GFR 60 to 125 ml/min/1.73 m², urine protein \> 1 gram/day) or the Phase IV study (GFR 20 to 60 ml/min/1.73 m², urine protein \> 0.5 gram/day). After a 3 month initial Evaluation Phase, the patients will be followed during a 24 month Observation Phase. FAACET is an open label, prospective observational study. The primary objective is reduction of first morning urine protein/creatinine ratio to \< 0.5 gram/gram. The primary outcome measure is the regression slope of MDRD GFR with time in years
