World Data on Ambroxol for Patients With GD and GBA Related PD
RecruitingN/A
Sponsor: Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Conditions: Gaucher Disease, Parkinson Disease, GBA Gene Mutation

Ambroxol hydrochloride is an oral mucolytic drug available over-the-counter for many years as cough medicine. In 2009 it was found to also act as a pharmacological chaperone (PC) for mutant glucocerebrosidase, albeit in a several-fold higher dose. Unfortunately, due to its low cost, there have been no pharma-driven clinical trials to establish the use of ambroxol. Thus, data are needed on the safety and efficacy of ambroxol for patients with Gaucher disease (GD).
