Galafold® (migalastat) is indicated for the treatment of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and an amenable galactosidase alpha gene (GLA) variant based on in vitro assay data.
This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on reduction in kidney interstitial capillary cell globotriaosylceramide (KIC GL-3) substrate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.
Establishing a routine for taking Galafold that fits into patients’ lifestyles may help them stay compliant with the prescribed Galafold dosing regimen.
One option to help patients keep track of their Galafold routine is the Galafold® MyDay app. The app will send reminders:
Every other day to let them know when it’s a Galafold day
Before and after they take Galafold (to inform them when to begin and end fasting)
When it’s time for a prescription refill, and more
