  • Moderate to severe hepatic impairment.
  • History of or active hepatobiliary disease.
  • Liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase) or total bilirubin >2 times the upper limit of normal.
  • Strong or moderate inducers or inhibitors of cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 within 14 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to randomization.
  • Known contraindication to undergoing MRI or known hypersensitivity to gadoliniumbased contrast agents.
  • History of seizures currently requiring treatment.
  • Underlying medical condition that may cause or contribute to left ventricular hypertrophy.
  • Asymmetric hypertrophy by cardiac MRI at screening if considered by central reader to be not related to Fabry disease.
  • Advanced cardiac fibrosis, defined as significant late gadolinium enhancement affecting 3 or more segments involving >50% of myocardial thickness on screening cardiac MRI.
  • History of clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia. Atrial fibrillation that is well controlled on a stable medical regimen for at least 12 months is not an exclusion if the CHA2DS2-VASc score is 0 for males or 1 for females.
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 mL/min/1.73m2.
  • Presence of severe depression as measured by Beck’s Depression Inventory (BDI)- II >28 and/or a history of an untreated, unstable major affective disorder within 1 year of the screening visit.
