Gaucher Disease Outcome Survey (GOS)

This study, called the Gaucher Outcomes Survey (GOS), is an ongoing, long-term registry for people with Gaucher disease. It's an observational study, meaning you would receive your usual care from your doctor, and no experimental treatments are involved. Researchers are collecting information to better understand Gaucher disease and the long-term safety and effectiveness of treatments like velaglucerase alfa. They are looking at things like side effects, infusion reactions, and changes in hemoglobin (a protein in red blood cells). Anyone with a confirmed diagnosis of Gaucher disease can join, regardless of age or gender. Enrollment was temporarily paused due to COVID-19 but has now resumed in some locations.

Study design
This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 1257 participants. It is not a randomized trial.
What's involved
You would undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by your treating physician. The study aims to collect data for up to 20 years.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for up to 20 years, with primary endpoints measured from baseline to one year.
