What is NAGLAZYME® (galsulfase)?
NAGLAZYME is a kind of treatment called Enzyme Replacement Therapy, or ERT. ERT is a type of treatment for diseases that are caused by an enzyme that the body cannot make well enough. In ERT the enzyme that is missing is replaced with a substitute enzyme.3 NAGLAZYME is a highly purified protein and is identical to the natural enzyme that is missing in MPS VI.1
NAGLAZYME reduces the GAG build-up that leads to MPS VI.1 In clinical studies, NAGLAZYME has been shown to help with endurance. People who took NAGLAZYME were able to do better on stair climbing and walking tests.1
