Questions about Imiglucerase trials

How many clinical trials are testing Imiglucerase?

2 current trials in our UK, USA, Germany, Japan, China, France, Italy, Turkey, Canada and Taiwan registers name Imiglucerase as a drug or biological intervention, as of the registry sync on 10 November 2026. Completed and withdrawn studies are not counted.

Are Imiglucerase trials recruiting patients?

Not at the moment. None of the 2 trials in our registers is recruiting; they are active but closed to enrolment, not yet open, or enrolling by invitation. Only the study team can confirm whether a patient is eligible.

Who sponsors Imiglucerase clinical trials?

Genzyme, a Sanofi Company (1) and Sanofi (1). The number in brackets is how many trials each organisation leads.

Is Imiglucerase licensed in Ireland?

Yes. The HPRA medicines list includes 3 single-substance products containing Imiglucerase, for example Cerezyme 400 Units Powder for concentrate for solution for infusion (Sanofi B.V.). A licence does not mean a product is currently marketed or reimbursed; see each product's record.

Is there a Imiglucerase shortage?

The registers we track list 1 entry for Imiglucerase: Cerezyme (EU: shortage resolved). Shortages are product- and country-specific; check with a pharmacist.

Where does this information come from?

Every trial, status, phase and sponsor on this page is copied from public ClinicalTrials.gov records by a daily sync. Nothing here describes how Imiglucerase works or whether it is effective, and it is not medical advice.

How this page is built

Everything on this page is copied from public ClinicalTrials.gov registry records — it is not written from memory, and nothing here describes how Imiglucerase works or whether it is effective. Each trial links to its own record so you can check it yourself.

This page is built automatically: a daily sync job reads the registry records behind our country trial registers, collects every trial that lists Imiglucerase (or a registered synonym) as a drug or biological intervention, and tabulates the registry fields directly. Placebos and generic comparators are excluded. There is no AI drafting and no per-compound editorial pass, and the page has not been clinically reviewed. The “last verified” date above is the timestamp of that sync, not a review date. Our general editorial approach is described in our editorial standards and corrections policy. The ClinicalTrials.gov data on this page was last retrieved on 10 Nov 2026. How every register is built: methodology · fixes we have made: corrections log.

Please verify before you rely on this. This page is general information for life-science and pharmaceutical professionals. It is not medical advice, and it has not been reviewed by a clinician — our editorial team holds life-science qualifications, not clinical ones. It is not exhaustive and may not reflect the most recent label change. Always check the official prescribing information (US Prescribing Information or EU SmPC) and speak to your doctor or pharmacist before acting on anything here. Drugs in the same class are not automatically interchangeable, and approvals, brand names and indications differ between the US, the EU/Ireland (EMA/HPRA) and other regions. Spotted an error?
