Gaucher Disease
Also known as Glucocerebrosidase deficiency, GBA deficiency, Glucocerebrosidosis
Gaucher disease is the most common lysosomal storage disorder. A deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase causes glucocerebroside to accumulate in macrophages of the liver, spleen, and bone marrow.

About Gaucher Disease
Gaucher disease is the most common lysosomal storage disorder. A deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase causes glucocerebroside to accumulate in macrophages of the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Type 1 is non-neuronopathic and most prevalent. Types 2 and 3 involve the nervous system. Treatment with enzyme replacement therapy or substrate reduction therapy has transformed outcomes for Type 1.

Before you apply
Things trial teams commonly ask about for Gaucher Disease. Not eligibility rules; those are set by each study.
- Type 1, 2, or 3 Gaucher disease determines which trials you are eligible for
- Spleen volume and platelet count are common baseline measurements in trials
- GBA carrier status is associated with Parkinson risk - some trials explore this connection
