PARMA, Italy, Sept. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Chiesi Global Rare Diseases, a business unit of the Chiesi Group established to deliver innovative therapies and solutions for people living with rare diseases, today announced the presentation of nine abstracts at the International Congress of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (ICIEM) 2025, held September 2-6, 2025, in Kyoto, Japan.

As part of Chiesi’s commitment to advancing dialogue in the field, the company also hosted a medical symposium titled “Catching the Clues, Changing the Course of LSDs: Illuminating the Complex Pathways of Rare Disease with Fabry Disease and Alpha-Mannosidosis in Focus.” The symposium explored the shared patient journey and challenges across the lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) care continuum, using Fabry disease and alpha-mannosidosis as illustrative examples.
“These presentations reflect our ongoing commitment to not only advancing scientific understanding of Fabry disease and alpha-mannosidosis, but also amplifying the voices and lived experiences of the people affected,” said Mitch Goldman, Senior Vice President R&D, Chiesi Global Rare Diseases. “By combining clinical research with insights from patients and caregivers, we’re working to develop more holistic solutions to potentially address the needs of the rare disease community.”
Professor Yoshikatsu Eto, Advanced Clinical Research Center, Southern Tohoku Research Center for Neuroscience, Kanagawa, Japan, added “The breadth of research presented, from clinical insights to patient-reported outcomes, reflects a growing commitment to understanding the full impact of these ultra-rare diseases. It’s encouraging to see continued collaboration between industry, clinicians, and patient communities to drive forward both scientific discovery and inform best practices of care.”
