Outcomes after 8 years of eliglustat therapy for Gaucher disease type 1: Final results from the Phase 2 trial.

Eliglustat is a first-line oral therapy for adults with Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1) and poor, intermediate or extensive CYP2D6-metabolizer phenotypes (>90% of patients). We report the final results of a Phase 2 trial and extension (NCT00358150) in previously untreated adult GD1 patients who had splenomegaly with thrombocytopenia and/or anemia and received 50 or 100 mg eliglustat tartrate (equivalent to 42 or 84 mg eliglustat) twice daily for 8 years. In total, 19 of 26 patients completed the trial.

Outcomes after 18 months of eliglustat therapy in treatment-naïve adults with Gaucher disease type 1: The phase 3 ENGAGE trial.

Eliglustat, an oral substrate reduction therapy, is a first-line treatment for adults with Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1) who are poor, intermediate, or extensive CYP2D6 metabolizers (>90% of patients). In the primary analysis of the Phase 3 ENGAGE trial (NCT00891202), eliglustat treatment for 9 months resulted in significant reductions in spleen and liver volumes and increases in hemoglobin concentration and platelet count compared with placebo. We report 18-month outcomes of patients who entered the trial extension period, in which all patients received eliglustat.
