Frequently asked questions about Taliglucerase alfa

What is Taliglucerase alfa used for?

Taliglucerase alfa is an investigational enzyme replacement therapy being developed for the treatment of Gaucher Disease, a rare genetic disorder. It is currently in Phase 3 clinical development and has not yet been approved by regulatory authorities.

Who makes Taliglucerase alfa?

Taliglucerase alfa is being developed by Pfizer, Inc. (NYSE: PFE). The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in patients with Gaucher Disease.

What phase is Taliglucerase alfa in?

Taliglucerase alfa is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies. All four clinical trials for the drug have been completed.

What clinical trials is Taliglucerase alfa in?

Taliglucerase alfa has been studied in four completed Phase 3 clinical trials. These include NCT00705939, NCT00712348, NCT01411228, and NCT01422187, which evaluated the drug in adult and pediatric patients with Gaucher Disease.

Is Taliglucerase alfa the same as imiglucerase?

Taliglucerase alfa is a distinct enzyme replacement therapy, though one clinical trial (NCT00712348) involved switching patients from imiglucerase to taliglucerase alfa. The drug is being developed as a potential treatment option for Gaucher Disease.
