Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called nizubaglustat (AZ-3102) in people aged 4 to 30 with Gaucher disease type 3, a rare genetic condition that can cause anemia, low platelets, an enlarged spleen, and neurological problems. Participants take the drug daily as a dissolvable tablet for 96 weeks. Researchers track changes in blood counts, spleen size, and overall symptom severity to see if the drug is safe and effective.
