About
Galafold Galafold® (migalastat)
123 mg capsules is an oral pharmacological chaperone of
alpha-Galactosidase A (alpha-Gal A) for the treatment of Fabry
disease in adults who have amenable galactosidase alpha gene
(GLA) variants. In these patients, Galafold works by
stabilizing the body’s own dysfunctional enzyme so that it can
clear the accumulation of disease substrate. Globally, Amicus
Therapeutics estimates that approximately 35 to 50 percent of
people living with Fabry disease may have
amenable GLA variants, though amenability rates within
this range vary by geography. Galafold is approved in more than 40
countries around the world, including the U.S., EU, U.K., and
Japan.
U.S. INDICATIONS AND
USAGEGalafold is indicated for the treatment of adults
with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and an amenable
galactosidase alpha gene (GLA) variant based
on in vitro assay data.
This indication is approved under accelerated
approval based on reduction in kidney interstitial capillary cell
globotriaosylceramide (KIC GL-3) substrate. Continued approval for
this indication may be contingent upon verification and description
of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.
U.S. IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
ADVERSE REACTIONSThe most
common adverse reactions reported with Galafold (≥10%) were
headache, nasopharyngitis, urinary tract infection, nausea and
pyrexia.
USE IN SPECIFIC
POPULATIONSThere is insufficient clinical data on Galafold
use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk for major
birth defects and miscarriage. Advise women of the potential risk
to a fetus.
It is not known if Galafold is present in human
milk. Therefore, the developmental and health benefits of
breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical
need for Galafold and any potential adverse effects on the
breastfed child from Galafold or from the underlying maternal
condition.
Galafold is not recommended for use in patients
with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease requiring
dialysis.
The safety and effectiveness of Galafold have
not been established in pediatric patients.

About Pombiliti +
OpfoldaPombiliti + Opfolda, is a two-component therapy
that consists of cipaglucosidase alfa-atga, a bis-M6P-enriched
rhGAA that facilitates high-affinity uptake through the M6P
receptor while retaining its capacity for processing into the most
active form of the enzyme, and the oral enzyme stabilizer,
miglustat, that’s designed to reduce loss of enzyme activity in the
blood.
U.S. INDICATIONS
AND USAGEPOMBILITI in combination
with OPFOLDA is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with
late-onset Pompe disease (lysosomal acid alpha-glucosidase [GAA]
deficiency) weighing ≥40 kg and who are not improving on their
current enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).
SAFETY INFORMATION
HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS INCLUDING
ANAPHYLAXIS: Appropriate medical support measures, including
cardiopulmonary resuscitation equipment, should be readily
available. If a severe hypersensitivity reaction occurs, POMBILITI
should be discontinued immediately and appropriate medical
treatment should be initiated. INFUSION-ASSOCIATED REACTIONS
(IARs): If severe IARs occur, immediately discontinue POMBILITI and
initiate appropriate medical treatment. RISK OF ACUTE
CARDIORESPIRATORY FAILURE IN SUSCEPTIBLE PATIENTS: Patients
susceptible to fluid volume overload, or those with acute
underlying respiratory illness or compromised cardiac or
respiratory function, may be at risk of serious exacerbation of
their cardiac or respiratory status during POMBILITI infusion. See
PI for complete Boxed Warning. CONTRAINDICATION: POMBILITI
in combination with Opfolda is contraindicated in pregnancy.
EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY: May cause embryo-fetal
harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential
risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception during treatment

Non-GAAP Financial Measures In
addition to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP, this press release also contains adjusted financial measures
that we believe provide investors and management with supplemental
information relating to operating performance and trends that
facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to
projected information. These adjusted financial measures are
non-GAAP measures and should be considered in addition to, but not
as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with
U.S. GAAP. We use these non-GAAP measures as key performance
measures for the purpose of evaluating operational performance and
cash requirements internally. We typically exclude certain GAAP
items that management does not believe affect our basic operations
and that do not meet the GAAP definition of unusual or
non-recurring items. Other companies may define these measures in
different ways. When we provide our expectation for non-GAAP
operating expenses and profitability on a forward-looking basis, a
reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectation
and the corresponding GAAP measure generally is not available
without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability,
complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be
excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such
as unusual gains or losses. The variability of the excluded items
may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on
our future GAAP results.
Forward Looking Statement
This press release contains "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 relating to the prospects and timing of the
potential regulatory and pricing and reimbursement approvals of our
products, commercialization plans, manufacturing and supply plans,
financing plans, and the projected revenues, profitability and cash
position for the Company. The inclusion of forward-looking
statements should not be regarded as a representation by us that
any of our plans will be achieved. Any or all of the
forward-looking statements in this press release may turn out to be
wrong and can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make
or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. For example,
statements regarding the goals, progress, timing, and outcomes of
discussions with regulatory authorities and pricing and
reimbursement authorities, are based on current information. Actual
results may differ materially from those set forth in this release
due to the risks and uncertainties inherent in our business,
including, without limitation: the potential that regulatory
authorities may not grant or may delay approval for our product
candidates; the potential that required regulatory inspections may
be delayed or not be successful and delay or prevent product
approval; the potential that we may not be successful in
negotiations with pricing and reimbursement authorities; the
potential that we may not be successful in commercializing Galafold
and/or Pombiliti and Opfolda in Europe, the UK, the US and other
geographies; the potential that we will not be able to effectively
compete in our approved markets: the potential that generic or new
competitor products enter the market; the potential that we may not
be able to manufacture or supply sufficient clinical or commercial
products; and the potential that we will need additional funding to
support the manufacturing and commercialization of our products.
With respect to statements regarding corporate financial guidance
and financial goals and the expected attainment of such goals and
projections of the Company's revenue, non-GAAP and GAAP
profitability and cash position, actual results may differ based on
market factors and the Company's ability to execute its operational
and budget plans. In addition, all forward-looking statements are
subject to other risks detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2023, and on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended September 30, 2024. You are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements are
qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement, and we
undertake no obligation to revise or update this news release to
reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.
