Patients who are naive or have not received FD therapy including investigational therapy for FD within the past 6 months prior to screening and have negative ADA testing at screening.
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation.
