WHAT ELFABRIO IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Elfabrio contains the active substance pegunigalsidase alfa, and is
used as enzyme replacement
therapy in adult patients with confirmed Fabry disease. Fabry disease
is a rare genetic disease that can
affect many parts of the body. In patients with Fabry disease, a fat
substance is not removed from the
cells of their body, and builds up in the walls of blood vessels which
can cause organ failure. This fat
builds up in the cells of these patients because they do not have
enough of an enzyme called α-
galactosidase-A, the enzyme responsible for breaking it down Elfabrio
is used long-term to
supplement or replace this enzyme in adult patients who have confirmed
Fabry disease.
