Summary
The ICGG Gaucher Registry is an ongoing, international multi-center, strictly observational
program that tracks the routine clinical outcomes for patients with Gaucher disease,
irrespective of treatment status. No experimental intervention is involved; patients in the
Registry undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by the patient's
treating physician.
The objectives of the Registry are:
- To enhance the understanding of the variability, progression, and natural history of
Gaucher disease with the ultimate goal of better guiding and assessing therapeutic
interventions;
- To provide the Gaucher medical community with recommendations for monitoring patients
and to provide reports on patient outcomes to help optimize patient care; and
- To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).
