2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment-naïveExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Treatment-naïve arm: Subjects with Type 1 Gaucher disease who had never received either ERT or SRT for Gaucher disease or had not received either ERT or SRT for Gaucher disease within 12 months of Screening (i.e., treatment-naïve subjects). Enrollment followed a similar scheme as for the switch-stable subjects. Note: No subjects enrolled in this arm.
Group II: Switch StableExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Switch-stable arm: Subjects who had undergone ERT ≥15 U/kg and ≤60 U/kg every other week (or equivalent; i.e., any combination of infusions resulting in a total monthly ERT dose of >30 U/kg and <120 U/kg) for ≥24 consecutive months for Type 1 Gaucher disease at the time of Screening. Switch-stable subjects must have discontinued ERT at least 2 weeks before the scheduled AVR-RD-02 infusion. Switch-stable subjects who had been and substrate reduction therapy (SRT) must not have received SRT within 12 months of Screening.
