Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/22/2015 -- Fabry disease is a rare X-linked inherited disorder caused by the deficiency of lysosomal enzyme a-galactosidase A (Nagueh, 2003). Fabry disease causes glycolipids such as globotriaosylceramide to accumulate in the vascular endothelium of skin, nervous system, heart and kidneys leading to inflammation and fibrosis resulting in organ dysfunction (Zarate and Hopkins, 2008). The organ dysfunction is regarded as the first clinical evidence of Fabry disease (Tsuboi et al., 2012). The symptoms of Fabry disease are typically severe in men, whereas women show variable range of symptoms with some being non symptomatic and others showing severe symptoms (Golfomitsos et al., 2012).

GlobalData epidemiologist forecast that the diagnosed prevalent cases of Fabry disease in the 7MM will increase from 4,538 diagnosed prevalent cases in 2014 to 8,037 diagnosed prevalent cases in 2024, at an AGR of 7.71% during the forecast period. Among the 7MM in 2024, the US will have the highest number of diagnosed prevalent cases of Fabry disease, with 3,540 diagnosed prevalent cases, whereas Spain will have the lowest number, with 523 diagnosed prevalent cases. In the 5EU, Germany will have the highest number of diagnosed prevalent cases of Fabry disease in 2024, with 819 diagnosed prevalent cases, and Spain will have the least number, with 523 diagnosed prevalent cases. Japan will have the highest AGR at 8.16%, while Germany will have the lowest AGR at 6.48%.

This report provides an overview of the risk factors, comorbidities/manifestations, and the global and historical epidemiological trends for Fabry disease in the seven major markets (7MM) (US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK and Japan). It also includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for the diagnosed prevalent cases of Fabry disease in these markets, segmented by age and sex. To construct the 10-year epidemiological forecast for the diagnosed prevalent cases of Fabry disease in the 7MM, GlobalData epidemiologists used data available from Fabry Support & Information Group (FSIG) for the US and the EU markets, and the data available for Japan from a population-based study conducted in Japan along with data available from FSIG for Asia-Pacific.
