WHAT KANUMA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
KANUMA contains the active substance sebelipase alfa. Sebelipase alfa
is similar to the naturally
occurring enzyme lysosomal acid lipase (LAL), which the body uses to
breakdown fats. It is used to
treat patients of all ages with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL
deficiency).
LAL deficiency is a genetic disease that leads to liver damage, high
blood cholesterol, and other
complications due to a build-up of certain types of fats (cholesteryl
esters and triglycerides).
HOW KANUMA WORKS
This medicine is an enzyme replacement therapy. This means that it
replaces the missing or defective
LAL enzyme in patients with LAL deficiency. This medicine works by
lowering the build-up of fat
that causes medical complications, including impaired growth, liver
damage and heart complications.
It also improves blood levels of fats, including elevated LDL (bad
cholesterol) and triglycerides.
