Conditions: Fabry Disease

Summary: pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic study of 2 agalsidase beta formulations in single dose administered to healthy volunteers as intravenous infusion, at a concentration of 1 mg/kg

volunteers will receive either one or the other agalsidase beta formulation. drug will be administered as an intravenous 5h infusion. plasma samples will be taken at different time points, from before infusion up to 12h later. pharmacokinetic (pk) and pharmacodynamic (pd) profile will be determined, and bioequivalence evaluated.
