Fabry disease is an inherited lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the GLA gene, disrupting the function of the enzyme, α-galactosidase. This results in the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) and its deacylated form, globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-GL-3), leading to progressive disruption of multiple organ systems. 

There are currently three treatment options available for Fabry disease, including two enzyme replacement therapies, agalsidase beta and pegunigalsidase alfa, and a chaperone therapy, migalastat. There are also other treatments in development (e.g., gene therapy, other enzyme replacement therapies) and some that are available in other countries (e.g., agalsidase alfa). 
Due to the small patient population and variability in Fabry disease severity, it is challenging to develop properly powered, placebo-controlled clinical trials. As such, data shared at conferences like WORLDSymposium 2025 are crucial for guiding best practices in this disease area. This program, led by Dr. Eric Wallace, provides a summary of clinically relevant data presented at WORLDSymposium 2025 that can enhance the care of patients with Fabry disease.  

Target Audience
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of physicians specializing in neurology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, and dermatology. Other members of the care team may also participate.

Learning Objectives
After participating in the activity, learners should be better able to: Describe the latest research being presented to better manage individuals with Fabry disease and its clinical relevance.
