Evaluation of bone density and microarchitecture in adult patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets: A pilot longitudinal study. Bone 2024; 187:117179. [PMID: 38960298 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
X-linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common type of inherited rickets. Although the clinical features are well characterized, bone structure, mineralization, and biomechanical properties are poorly known. Our aim was to analyze bone properties in the appendicular and axial skeleton of adults with XLH. In this observational case-control study, each affected patient (N = 14; 9 females; age 50 ± 15 years) was matched by sex, age and body mass index to a minimum of two healthy controls (N = 34). Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) analyses revealed that areal bone mineral density (aBMD) was higher in XLH patients at the lumbar spine (Z score mean difference = +2.47 SD, P value = 1.4 × 10-3). Trabecular Bone Score was also higher at the lumbar spine (P value = 1.0 × 10-4). High Resolution peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HRpQCT) demonstrated that bone cross-sectional area was larger at the distal radius (P value = 6 × 10-3). Total and trabecular volumetric BMD were lower at both sites. Trabecular bone volume fraction was also lower with fewer trabecular numbers at both sites. However, bone strength evaluated by micro-finite element analyzes revealed unaffected bone stiffness and maximum failure load. Evaluation of bone mineralization with aBMD by DXA at the distal radius correlated with vBMD by HRpQCT measurements at both sites. PTH levels were inversely correlated with trabecular vBMD and BV/TV at the tibia. We then followed a subset of nine patients (median follow-up of 4 years) and reassessed HRpQCT. At the tibia, we observed a greater decrease than expected from an age and sex standardized normal population in total and cortical vBMD as well as a trabecularization of the cortical compartment. In conclusion, in adult patients with XLH, bone mineral density is high at the axial skeleton but low at the appendicular skeleton. With time, microarchitectural alterations worsen. We propose that noninvasive evaluation methods of bone mineralization such as DXA including the radius should be part of the management of XLH patients. Larger studies are needed to evaluate the clinical significance of BMD changes in XLH patients under conventional or targeted therapies.

Abstract
To assess the efficacy and safety of burosumab in children and adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia based on real-world evidence. MEDLINE (via PubMed) and Cochrane Library were searched until 18 October 2023 for single-arm (before-after) studies. Registries including Clinicaltrials.gov, EU Clinical Trials, WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and conference abstracts. The outcomes were a change in serum phosphorus concentrations and change in RSS, a change in serum ALP, bone-specific ALP, a change in the ratio of Tubular maximum reabsorption of Phosphate to Glomerular Filtrate rate, a change in serum 1,25(OH)2D and 25(OH)2D concentrations, change in height Z-score, McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and safety outcomes. An inverse variance random-effects meta-analysis was applied for data synthesis. Fifteen studies (289 participants) were included. Burosumab treatment improved serum phosphate concentrations [mean difference 0.88 mg/dl, 95% confidence interval 0.70 to 1.07, I2 = 92%), Rickets Severity score (mean difference - 1.86, 95% confidence interval - 2.5 to - 1.21, I2 = 71%), serum alkaline phosphate concentrations (mean difference - 1.86, 95% confidence interval - 2.5 to - 1.21, I2 = 71%), serum 1,25(OH)2D concentrations (mean difference 18.91 pg/ml, 95% confidence interval 6.39 to 31.43, I2 = 96%) and renal phosphate reabsorption (mean difference 1.22 mg/dl, 95% confidence interval 0.70 to 1.74, I2 93%). Burosumab treatment improved overall clinical and laboratory findings in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphataemia is a genetic disease caused by defects in the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene and is characterised by X-linked dominant inheritance. The main consequence of PHEX deficiency is increased production of the phosphaturic hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in osteoblasts and osteocytes. Chronic exposure to circulating FGF23 is responsible for renal phosphate wasting and decreased synthesis of calcitriol, which decreases intestinal phosphate absorption. These mechanisms result in lifelong hypophosphataemia, impaired growth plate and bone matrix mineralisation, and diverse manifestations in affected children and adults, including some debilitating morbidities and possibly increased mortality. Important progress has been made in disease knowledge and management over the past decade; in particular, targeting FGF23 is a therapeutic approach that has substantially improved outcomes. However, patients affected by this complex disease need lifelong care and innovative treatment strategies, such as gene repair of PHEX, are necessary to further limit the disease burden.

Abstract
Burosumab is indicated for treatment of a rare bone disease, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). The aim of this analysis was to evaluate the relationship between a treatment response biomarker and patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Longitudinal data for PROs were obtained from adults with XLH from a phase III study. Individual rich time profiles of the biomarker, serum phosphate were simulated using a prior population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model to calculate serum phosphate exposure metrics for each 28-day treatment cycle, which were then merged with PROs data. Item response theory parameters were first estimated to map a latent variable, ψ, that is, disability score, relative to baseline. Next, the relationships between serum phosphate exposures and ψ were modeled using a nonlinear mixed-effect (NLME) modeling approach. A combined item response theory-NLME model with average serum phosphate as a predictor of ψ described PROs data well. The model estimates suggested 28%, 31%, and 25% reduction in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, brief pain inventory, and brief fatigue inventory scores, respectively, with every unit increase in average serum phosphate from the lower limit of normal (2.5 mg/dL). Additionally, a time effect of ~ 0.08% improvements each week was estimated. The analysis suggested that burosumab treatment-induced improvements in serum phosphate levels are associated with improvements in PROs in adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia. The analyses confirmed the importance of prolonged serum phosphate level correction in adult patients with XLH. These results can be useful to guide the design of further studies and to design treatment optimization strategies.

J Am Dent Assoc 2024:S0002-8177(24)00370-2. [PMID: 39127957 DOI: 10.1016/j.adaj.2024.05.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mineral metabolism is critical for proper development of hard tissues of the skeleton and dentition. The dentoalveolar complex includes the following 4 mineralized tissues: enamel, dentin, cementum, and alveolar bone. Developmental processes of these tissues are affected by inherited disorders that disrupt phosphate and pyrophosphate homeostasis, although manifestations are distinct from those in the skeleton. TYPES OF STUDIES REVIEWED The authors discuss original data from experiments and comparative analyses and review articles describing effects of inherited phosphate and pyrophosphate disorders on dental tissues. A particular emphasis is placed on how new therapeutic approaches for these conditions may affect oral health and dental treatments of affected patients. RESULTS Disorders of phosphate and pyrophosphate metabolism can lead to reduced mineralization (hypomineralization) or inappropriate (ectopic) calcification of soft tissues. Disruptions in phosphate levels in X-linked hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis and disruptions in pyrophosphate levels in hypophosphatasia and generalized arterial calcification of infancy contribute to dental mineralization defects. Traditionally, there have been few options to ameliorate dental health problems arising from these conditions. New antibody and enzyme replacement therapies bring possibilities to improve oral health in affected patients. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS Research over the past 2 decades has exponentially expanded the understanding of mineral metabolism, and has led to novel treatments for mineralization disorders. Newly implemented and emerging therapeutic strategies affect the dentoalveolar complex and interact with aspects of oral health care that must be considered for dental treatment, clinical trial design, and coordination of multidisciplinary care teams.

Abstract
Background X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is a rare genetic disease characterized by inappropriately elevated circulating fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and subsequent urinary phosphate wasting. The primary clinical manifestations of XLH include short stature, lower extremity bowing, dental abscesses, and rickets. Historical treatment includes phosphate and vitamin D supplementation, but recently, targeted therapy with burosumab has gained widespread acceptance. Burosumab is an FGF-23 blocking antibody. Conventional therapy options have been associated with the development of nephrocalcinosis (NC), with reported rates varying between 33% and 80% in XLH patients. Previous studies have noted that the phosphate supplementation dose correlates with the presence of NC, although this finding is not consistent across studies. It remains unclear whether nephrocalcinosis occurs in patients now treated with burosumab. Our aim was to identify XLH-associated nephrocalcinosis risk factors in our cohort of children with XLH and provide an updated analysis in the era of burosumab. Methods We identified 13 children with XLH who received routine medical care for XLH at our institution between 2015 and 2023. All were initially treated with conventional therapy and were transitioned to burosumab either upon its US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2018 or at 6 months of age if this occurred after 2018. All patients were routinely monitored and this included laboratory tests and renal ultrasonography. Phosphate and calcitriol dosages were regularly adjusted to minimize serum and urinary laboratory abnormalities. Burosumab was administered according to its FDA package insert directions. Medication doses and laboratory values were analyzed between the group with NC and the group without NC. Results Three patients were noted to have evidence of NC within the study timeline. Two children developed NC while receiving conventional therapy and one while prescribed burosumab. None of the variables, including a positive family history of XLH, average age at diagnosis of XLH, duration or dosage of treatment with conventional therapy, average age at the initiation of burosumab, and all measured laboratory values, were significantly different between the groups with and without NC. Female sex was the only identified significant risk factor for a diagnosis of XLH-associated NC. Conclusion XLH-associated NC remains a clinical concern even with modern treatment, although the traditional risk factors (dose of phosphate supplements and degree of urinary phosphate excretion) may not always correlate with the onset of nephrocalcinosis. XLH patients receiving burosumab, which has been hypothesized to eliminate the risk factors for NC, can still develop NC. It is important to continue screening patients treated with burosumab for nephrocalcinosis. In addition, more research is needed to better understand the risk factors that cause XLH-associated NC and determine whether children with XLH never exposed to conventional therapy will develop NC.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a hormone to reduce blood phosphate concentration. Excessive actions of FGF23 induce FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders, such as X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) and tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO). We will summarize recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders. RECENT FINDINGS The measurement of blood FGF23 is useful to make a diagnosis of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders. It was reported that many patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders, especially TIO, were misdiagnosed, therefore, it is necessary to enhance the awareness of these diseases. A novel method to inhibit excessive actions of FGF23 by a human monoclonal antibody for FGF23, burosumab, has been approved in several countries. In more long-term observation than clinical trials, burosumab has also been shown to improve biochemical abnormalities and symptoms of rickets/osteomalacia. Following these advances, several registries and consensus recommendations on FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders, especially XLH, have been established in each country or region. SUMMARY Further long-term effects of burosumab and the precise mechanism of FGF23 overproduction in patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders need to be clarified in the future studies.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a genetic disease that results in excessive FGF23, chronic hypophosphatemia, and musculoskeletal abnormalities, with affected patients experiencing symptoms such as bone pain, bone deformity, fracture, and pseudofracture. Burosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to FGF23, improving lowered serum 1,25(OH)2D and phosphate levels in patients with XLH. There are insufficient data on the use of burosumab, its safety, and the outcomes of treated patients in a real-world setting. The SUNFLOWER (Study of longitUdinal observatioN For patients with X-Linked hypOphosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia in collaboration With Asian partnERs) study is an ongoing longitudinal, observational cohort study of patients with XLH in Japan and South Korea. Enrollment occurred between April 2018 and December 2020. This interim analysis compared the background characteristics of patients who received burosumab with those who did not, and assessed improvements in biomarkers, physical and motor function, health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) and other patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures, as well as the safety of burosumab treatment in 143 Japanese patients from 15 institutions over 6 mo. The patients had a median [interquartile range] age of 17.5 [11.0, 38.8] yr and 98 (68.5%) were female. Among patients aged <18 and ≥18 yr, 40/73 (54.8%) and 25/70 (35.7%) received burosumab, respectively. More patients aged ≥18 who received burosumab had bone pain at baseline vs those not treated with burosumab (6/25, 24.0% vs 2/45, 4.4%, p=.021). Patients treated with burosumab had improved serum phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D levels; moreover, rickets severity and HRQOL/PRO measures, such as pain, appeared to improve over 6 mo of burosumab treatment, and no new safety concerns were identified. This study identified trends in the background characteristics of patients with XLH who receive burosumab in real-world clinical practice. Furthermore, the results support the use of burosumab therapy in real-world settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metabolic bone disease of prematurity (MBDP) remains a significant cause of morbidity in extremely premature newborns. In high-risk patients, suspected diagnosis and subsequent treatment modifications, with limitations in terms of sensitivity and specificity, rely on low phosphorus levels and/or high levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). We investigated the potential of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) as an early marker for MBDP when measured at 3-4 weeks of life in at-risk patients. METHODS A single-center prospective observational non-interventional study including preterm newborns of both sexes, with a gestational age of less than 32 weeks and/or a birth weight of less than 1500 g. In the standard biochemical screening for MBDP performed between 3 and 4 weeks of life within a nutritional profile, the determination of FGF23 was included along with other clinical and metabolic studies. The study was conducted at Marqués de Valdecilla University Hospital in Santander, Spain, from April 2020 to March 2021. Participants provided informed consent. Biochemical analyses were conducted using various platforms, and follow-up evaluations were performed at the discretion of neonatologists. Patients at high risk for MBDP received modifications in treatment accordingly. The sample was descriptively analyzed, presenting measures of central tendency and dispersion for continuous variables, and absolute numbers/percentages for categorical ones. Tests used included t-tests, Mann‒Whitney U tests, chi-square tests, logistic regressions, Pearson correlation, and ROC curve analysis (IBM SPSS Statistics version 19). Significance level: P < 0.05. RESULTS In the study involving 25 at-risk premature newborns, it was found that 20% (n = 5) were diagnosed with MBDP. Three of these patients (60%) were identified as high-risk based on standard biochemical evaluation at 3-4 weeks of age, while the other two patients (40%) were diagnosed in subsequent weeks. However, in all 5 patients, measurement of FGF23 levels would allow for early identification and optimization of treatment before other markers become altered. Low levels of FGF23 at 3-4 weeks, even with normal phosphorus and ALP levels, indicate the need for modifications in nutritional supplementation. CONCLUSIONS MBDP remains a significant concern in extremely premature newborns. Current diagnostic methods rely on limited biochemical markers. Early detection of low FGF23 levels enables timely interventions, potentially averting demineralization.

Health-related quality of life of children with X-linked hypophosphatemia in Germany. Pediatr Nephrol 2024:10.1007/s00467-024-06427-0. [PMID: 38914781 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-024-06427-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare inherited phosphate-wasting disorder associated with bone and dental complications. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is reduced in XLH patients on conventional treatment with phosphate supplements and active vitamin D, while information on patients treated with burosumab is rare. METHODS HRQoL was assessed in 63 pediatric XLH patients participating in a prospective, observational study and patient registry in Germany using the KIDSCREEN-52 survey instrument and standardized qualitative interviews. RESULTS The median age of the XLH patients was 13.2 years (interquartile range 10.6 - 14.6). At the time of the survey, 55 (87%) patients received burosumab and 8 (13%) conventional treatment. Forty-six patients (84%) currently being treated with burosumab previously received conventional treatment. Overall, HRQoL was average compared to German reference values (mean ± SD: self-report, 53.36 ± 6.47; caregivers' proxy, 51.33 ± 7.15) and even slightly above average in some dimensions, including physical, mental, and social well-being. In general, XLH patients rated their own HRQoL higher than their caregivers. In qualitative interviews, patients and caregivers reported that, compared with conventional therapy, treatment with burosumab reduced stress, bone pain, and fatigue, improved physical health, and increased social acceptance by peers and the school environment. CONCLUSIONS In this real-world study in pediatric XLH patients, HRQoL was average or even slightly above that of the general population, likely due to the fact that the vast majority of patients had their treatment modality switched from conventional treatment to burosumab resulting in improved physical health and well-being.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia is one of paraneoplastic syndromes characterized by hypophosphatemia caused by excessive actions of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Since the cloning of FGF23 about 20 years ago, more widespread awareness of this disease has been achieved. However, there still remain several difficulties in the management of patients with this disease. In this review, these clinical problems are discussed together with the physiological and pathophysiological functions of FGF23. Personal proposals in the management of patients with suspected patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia are also presented.

Abstract
Background X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, progressive disorder characterized by excess fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), causing renal phosphate-wasting and impaired active vitamin D synthesis. Burosumab is a recombinant human monoclonal antibody that inhibits FGF23, restoring patient serum phosphate levels. Safety data on long-term burosumab treatment are currently limited. Objectives This post-authorization safety study (PASS) aims to monitor long-term safety outcomes in children and adolescents (1-17 years) treated with burosumab for XLH. This first interim analysis reports the initial PASS safety outcomes. Design A 10-year retrospective and prospective cohort study. Methods This PASS utilizes International XLH Registry (NCT03193476) data, which includes standard diagnostic and monitoring practice data at participating European centers. Results At data cut-off (13 May 2021), 647 participants were included in the International XLH Registry; 367 were receiving burosumab, of which 67 provided consent to be included in the PASS. Mean (SD) follow-up time was 2.2 (1.0) years. Mean (SD) age was 7.3 (4.3) years (range 1.0-17.5 years). Mean duration of burosumab exposure was 29.7 (25.0) months. Overall, 25/67 participants (37.3%) experienced ⩾1 adverse event (AE) during follow-up; 83 AEs were reported. There were no deaths, no AEs leading to treatment withdrawal, nor serious AEs related to treatment. The most frequently reported AEs were classified as 'musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders', with 'pain in extremity' most frequently reported, followed by 'infections and infestations', with 'tooth abscess' the most frequently reported. Conclusion In this first interim analysis of the PASS, covering the initial 2 years of data collection, the safety profile of burosumab is consistent with previously reported safety data. The PASS will provide long-term safety data over its 10-year duration for healthcare providers and participants with XLH that contribute to improvements in the knowledge of burosumab safety.

Abstract
Burosumab, a monoclonal antibody directed against the fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), has been approved for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). We conducted a systematic review to compare the efficacy and safety of burosumab versus conventional therapy (phosphorus and calcitriol) on XLH treatment. After a comprehensive literature search on MEDLINE/PubMed and Embase, we found nine studies for inclusion in the analysis. Risk of bias was assessed, and a random-effects model was used to determine the effect size. Clinical, biochemical, and radiological parameters of disease severity before and after treatment were analyzed and expressed in standardized mean difference (SMD). Burosumab resulted in normalization of phosphate homeostasis with an increase in renal tubular phosphate reabsorption and significant resolution of skeletal lesions (change in Thacher's total rickets severity score SMD: -1.46, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.76 to -1.17, p < 0.001, improvement in deformities, and decline in serum alkaline phosphatase levels [SMD: 130.68, 95% CI: 125.26-136.1, p < 0.001)]. Conventional therapy led to similar improvements in all these parameters but to a lower degree. In adults, burosumab normalized phosphorus levels (SMD: 1.23, 95% CI: 0.98-1.47, p < 0.001) with resultant clinical improvement. Burosumab treatment was well tolerated, with only mild treatment-related adverse effects. The present review indicates a potential role for burosumab in improving rickets, deformities, and growth in children with XLH. Given its superior efficacy and safety profile, burosumab could be an effective therapeutic option in children. We suggest further studies comparing burosumab versus conventional therapy in children and adults with XLH.

Cardiovascular health in pediatric patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia under two years of burosumab therapy. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1400273.

Abstract
Introduction X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by an inactivating mutation in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase X-linked (PHEX) gene whose defective product fails to control phosphatonin fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) serum levels. Although elevated FGF23 levels have been linked with detrimental cardiac effects, the cardiologic outcomes in XLH patients have been subject to debate. Our study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and severity of cardiovascular morbidity in pediatric XLH patients before, during, and after a 2-year treatment period with burosumab, a recombinant anti-FGF23 antibody. Methods This prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary medical center, and included 13 individuals with XLH (age range 0.6-16.2 years) who received burosumab every 2 weeks. Clinical assessment at treatment initiation and after .5, 1, and 2 years of uninterrupted treatment included anthropometric measurements and cardiologic evaluations (blood pressure [BP], electrocardiogram, conventional echocardiography, and myocardial strain imaging). Results The linear growth of all patients improved significantly (mean height z-score: from -1.70 ± 0.80 to -0.96 ± 1.08, P=0.03). Other favorable effects were decline in overweight/obesity rates (from 46.2% to 23.1%) and decreased rates of elevated BP (systolic BP from 38.5% to 15.4%; diastolic BP from 38.5% to 23.1%). Electrocardiograms revealed no significant abnormality throughout the study period. Cardiac dimensions and myocardial strain parameters were within the normative range for age at baseline and remained unchanged during the study period. Conclusion Cardiologic evaluations provided reassurance that 2 years of burosumab therapy did not cause cardiac morbidity. The beneficial effect of this treatment was a reduction in cardiovascular risk factors, as evidenced by the lower prevalence of both overweight/obesity and elevated BP.

Abstract
Disease specific cohort studies have reported details on X linked (XL) disorders affecting females. We investigated the spectrum and penetrance of XL disorders seen in electronic health records (EHR). We generated a cohort of individuals diagnosed with XL disorders at Vanderbilt University Medical Center over 20 years. Our cohort included 477 males and 203 females diagnosed with 108 different XL genetic disorders. We found large differences between the female/male (F/M) ratios for various XL disorders regardless of their OMIM annotated mode of inheritance. We identified four XL recessive disorders affecting women previously only described in men. Biomarkers for XL disease had unique gender-specific patterns differing between modes of inheritance. EHRs provide large cohorts of XL genetic disorders that give new insights compared to the literature. Differences in the F/M ratios and biomarkers of XL disorders observed likely result from disease specific and sex dependent penetrance. We conclude that observed gender ratios associated with specific XL disorders may be more useful than those predicted by Mendelian genetics provided by OMIM. Our findings of a gender specific penetrance and severity for XL disorders show unexpected differences from Mendelian predictions. Further work is required to validate our findings in larger combined EHR cohorts.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Children with X Linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH) suffer from carential ricket, bone deformities and lameness. No previous study demonstrated a morphological distinction in muscles in these patients. The aim of this prospective study was to characterize, using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), the muscle morphology of pelvis, thigh and leg in children with XLH and to compare it with typically developed (TD) children. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesized that lower limbs muscles in children with XLH are different from TD children and could explain limp walking. MATERIAL AND METHODS Three-dimensional reconstructions of the muscles were performed in 11 patients with XLH and 15 TD children. Muscle lengths, sections and volumes were calculated and normalized with height and weight. Mean age was 10. RESULTS Lengths were all smaller in children with XLH except for the Medius/minimus gluteus muscles (p=0.64). The difference seemed higher in muscles with a long tendinous part as semitendinosus (0.139 vs 0,164; p<0.01). All volumes were significantly inferior in children with XLH. This preliminary study showed significant differences in muscle structures between patients with XLH and TD children. DISCUSSION Medius/minimus gluteus seemed to be particularly developed in children with XLH. Nevertheless it is not possible to conclude if it is related to XLH or a consequence of bone deformities.

[PMID: 37975816 PMCID: PMC11031212 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgad671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Fibrous dysplasia (FD) results in fractures, pain, and deformities. Abnormal osteoprogenitor cells overproduce FGF23, leading to hyperphosphaturia in most patients and frank hypophosphatemia in a subset. Studies suggest hypophosphatemia is associated with increased FD-related morbidity. However, the relationship between phosphorus and skeletal complications has not been investigated, and the optimal therapeutic target has not been determined. OBJECTIVE Characterize the impact of serum phosphorus on FD-related morbidity and identify levels associated with increased skeletal complications. METHODS Natural history study with 240 subjects at a clinical research center who had ≥1 fasting phosphorus level, determined as age- and sex-adjusted Z-scores. Subjects were categorized based on frank hypophosphatemia (Z-score ≤ -2; n = 48); low-normophosphatemia (> -2 to ≤ -1; n = 66); and high-normophosphatemia (> -1 to ≤ 2; n = 125). Main outcomes were fractures, orthopedic surgeries, and scoliosis. RESULTS Subjects with frank and low-normophosphatemia had increased fracture and surgery rates vs high-normophosphatemia. The prevalence of moderate to severe scoliosis was similarly higher in the frank and low-normophosphatemia groups. In a subanalysis of patients matched for Skeletal Burden Score ≥35, fracture and surgery rates remained higher in the frank hypophosphatemia group, suggesting association between phosphorus and skeletal complications is not explained by differences in FD burden alone. CONCLUSION Both frank hypophosphatemia and low-normophosphatemia are associated with increased FD-related complications. This supports FGF23-mediated hypophosphatemia as a driver of skeletal morbidity, which may impact a larger proportion of the FD/McCune-Albright syndrome population than previously recognized. These findings enable clinicians to identify at-risk patients and will inform development of prospective studies to determine optimal therapeutic targets.

Complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblast lineage cells of X-linked hypophosphatemia: Analysis of human iPS cell models generated by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation. Bone 2024; 181:117044. [PMID: 38331306 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by inactivating variants of the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene. Although the overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is responsible for hypophosphatemia and impaired vitamin D metabolism, the pathogenesis of XLH remains unclear. We herein generated PHEX-knockout (KO) human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by applying CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation to an iPS clone derived from a healthy male, and analyzed PHEX-KO iPS cells with deletions extending from exons 1 to 3 and frameshifts by inducing them to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. We confirmed the increased production of FGF23 in osteoblast lineage cells differentiated from PHEX-KO iPS cells. In vitro mineralization was enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells from PHEX-KO iPS cells than in those from isogenic control iPS cells, which reminded us of high bone mineral density and enthesopathy in patients with XLH. The extracellular level of pyrophosphate (PPi), an inhibitor of mineralization, was elevated, and this increase appeared to be partly due to the reduced activity of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells also showed the increased expression of multiple molecules such as dentine matrix protein 1, osteopontin, RUNX2, FGF receptor 1 and early growth response 1. This gene dysregulation was similar to that in the osteoblasts/osteocytes of Phex-deficient Hyp mice, suggesting that common pathogenic mechanisms are shared between human XLH and Hyp mice. Moreover, we found that the phosphorylation of CREB was markedly enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells, which appeared to be associated with the up-regulation of the parathyroid hormone related protein gene. PHEX deficiency also affected the response of the ALPL gene encoding TNSALP to extracellular Pi. Collectively, these results indicate that complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblasts/osteocytes underlie the pathogenesis of human XLH.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, multi-systemic, invalidating disease requiring a multi-disciplinary approach. No specific action in XLH, neither for the patients' specific needs nor for the methodology for the evaluation of these were found. Thus, to identify the needs of XLH patients and their caregivers, we organised focus groups in our reference centre with a view to build educational sessions. Focus groups including either XLH children, XLH adults, or caregivers ran in parallel. Each group was led by a person trained in therapeutic education (nurse, paediatric nephrologist) with another healthcare provider specialised in XLH (rheumatologist, nephrologist). One additional person with knowledge of XLH (clinical research associate, paediatric resident) took minutes. The duration of each session was 1.5h; XLH patients/caregivers were asked to answer age-adapted "open questions" on their daily life and quality of life. At the end, a global restitution was made. The needs identified were later grouped and analysed, which allowed us to build the educational sessions. The XLH children group included 5 children, the XLH adults group included 10 adults, and the caregivers group included 6 parents or partners. Major needs were identified: knowledge of XLH, treatment, dental care and adapted physical activity, with additional questions on socio-professional adaptations and financial support in adults. Partner patients were also identified to co-build the support programme. The study allowed us to identify the needs of XLH patients and their caregivers using the focus group method and then, using these needs, to build educational sessions and a therapeutic education programme for XLH patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION X-linked hypophosphatemia is an orphan disease of genetic origin and multisystem involvement. It is characterized by a mutation of the PHEX gene which results in excess FGF23 production, with abnormal renal and intestinal phosphorus metabolism, hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia secondary to chronic renal excretion of phosphate. Clinical manifestations include hypophosphatemic rickets leading to growth abnormalities and osteomalacia, myopathy, bone pain and dental abscesses. The transition of these patients to adult life continues to pose challenges to health systems, medical practitioners, patients and families. For this reason, the aim of this consensus is to provide a set of recommendations to facilitate this process and ensure adequate management and follow-up, as well as the quality of life for patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia as they transition to adult life. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight Latin American experts on the subject participated in the consensus and two of them were appointed as coordinators. The consensus work was done in accordance with the nominal group technique in 6 phases: (1) question standardization, (2) definition of the maximum number of choices, (3) production of individual solutions or answers, (4) individual question review, (5) analysis and synthesis of the information and (6) synchronic meetings for clarification and voting. An agreement was determined to exist with 80% votes in favor in three voting cycles. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Transition to adult life in patients with hypophosphatemia is a complex process that requires a comprehensive approach, taking into consideration medical interventions and associated care, but also the psychosocial components of adult life and the participation of multiple stakeholders to ensure a successful process. The consensus proposes a total of 33 recommendations based on the evidence and the knowledge and experience of the experts. The goal of the recommendations is to optimize the management of these patients during their transition to adulthood, bearing in mind the need for multidisciplinary management, as well as the most relevant medical and psychosocial factors in the region.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is a genetic cause of renal hypophosphatemia due to inactivation of the PHEX gene, with an inappropriate concentration of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Burosumab, an anti-FGF23 monoclonal antibody, is a validated treatment for XLH, but its use in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) has not been validated. A 61-year-old man with XLH developed CKD during follow-up. Conventional treatment (phosphate salts and active vitamin D analogs) was poorly tolerated. Treatment with burosumab was decided at a multi-professional meeting. Before burosumab initiation, his measured glomerular filtration rate was 44 mL/min/1.73 m2 defining CKD stage 3b and intact FGF23 concentration was very high (4496.0 ng/mL, N: 22.7-93.1) due to both XLH and CKD. Severe hypophosphatemia was observed after the two first injections of burosumab at usual doses (1 mg/kg monthly) and concomitant discontinuation of the conventional treatment. After increasing the dose and reducing the interval between doses (1.3 mg/kg every three weeks) from the third injection, serum phosphate concentration normalized and remained around the lower limit of the normal range. A local cutaneous reaction was observed just after the second injection, but did not recur. We report for the first time the efficacy and good short-term tolerance of burosumab in a patient with XLH and CKD, subject to a higher dosage aimed at achieving a phosphatemia at the lower limit of the normal range.

Abstract
After identification of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 as the pivotal regulator of chronic serum inorganic phosphate (Pi) levels, the etiology of disorders causing hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia has been clarified, and measurement of intact FGF23 serves as a potent tool for differential diagnosis of chronic hypophosphatemia. Additionally, measurement of bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) is recommended to differentiate acute and subacute hypophosphatemia from chronic hypophosphatemia. This article divides the etiology of chronic hypophosphatemia into 4 groups: A. FGF23 related, B. primary tubular dysfunction, C. disturbance of vitamin D metabolism, and D. parathyroid hormone 1 receptor (PTH1R) mediated. Each group is further divided into its inherited form and acquired form. Topics for each group are described, including "ectopic FGF23 syndrome," "alcohol consumption-induced FGF23-related hypophosphatemia," "anti-mitochondrial antibody associated hypophosphatemia," and "vitamin D-dependent rickets type 3." Finally, a flowchart for differential diagnosis of chronic hypophosphatemia is introduced.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This manuscript provides a summary of the current evidence to support the criteria for diagnosing a child or adult with hypophosphatasia (HPP). The diagnosis of HPP is made on the basis of integrating clinical features, laboratory profile, radiographic features of the condition, and DNA analysis identifying the presence of a pathogenic variant of the tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase gene (ALPL). Often, the diagnosis of HPP is significantly delayed in both adults and children, and updated diagnostic criteria are required to keep pace with our evolving understanding regarding the relationship between ALPL genotype and associated HPP clinical features. METHODS An International Working Group (IWG) on HPP was formed, comprised of a multidisciplinary team of experts from Europe and North America with expertise in the diagnosis and management of patients with HPP. Methodologists (Romina Brignardello-Petersen and Gordon Guyatt) and their team supported the IWG and conducted systematic reviews following the GRADE methodology, and this provided the basis for the recommendations. RESULTS The IWG completed systematic reviews of the literature, including case reports and expert opinion papers describing the phenotype of patients with HPP. The published data are largely retrospective and include a relatively small number of patients with this rare condition. It is anticipated that further knowledge will lead to improvement in the quality of genotype-phenotype reporting in this condition. CONCLUSION Following consensus meetings, agreement was reached regarding the major and minor criteria that can assist in establishing a clinical diagnosis of HPP in adults and children.

Real-world data of Brazilian adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) treated with burosumab and comparison with other worldwide cohorts. Mol Genet Genomic Med 2024; 12:e2387. [PMID: 38337160 PMCID: PMC10858313 DOI: 10.1002/mgg3.2387] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Disease-related variants in PHEX cause XLH by an increase of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) circulating levels, resulting in hypophosphatemia and 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D deficiency. XLH manifests in early life with rickets and persists in adulthood with osseous and extraosseous manifestations. Conventional therapy (oral phosphate and calcitriol) improves some symptoms, but evidence show that it is not completely effective, and it can lead to nephrocalcinosis (NC) and hyperparathyroidism (HPT). Burosumab (anti-FGF23 antibody) has shown to be effective and safety in the clinical trials. METHODS The current real-world collaborative study evaluated genetic, clinical and laboratory data of XLH Brazilian adult patients treated with burosumab. RESULTS Nineteen unrelated patients were studied. Patients reported pain, limb deformities and claudication, before burosumab initiation. 78% of them were previously treated with conventional therapy. The severity of the disease was moderate to severe (15 patients with score >5). At the baseline, 3 patients presented NC (16.7%) and 12 HPT (63%). After 16 ± 8.4 months under burosumab, we observed a significant: increase in stature (p = 0.02), in serum phosphate from 1.90 ± 0.43 to 2.67 ± 0.52 mg/dL (p = 0.02); in TmP/GFR from 1.30 ± 0.46 to 2.27 ± 0.64 mg/dL (p = 0.0001), in 1,25 (OH)2 D from 50.5 ± 23.3 to 71.1 ± 19.1 pg/mL (p = 0.03), and a decrease in iPTH from 86.8 ± 37.4 pg/mL to 66.5 ± 31.1 (p = 0.002). Nineteen variants were found (10 novel). HPT tended to develop in patients with truncated PHEX variants (p = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS This study confirms the efficacy and safety of burosumab on XLH adult patients observed in clinical trials. Additionally, we observed a decrease in iPTH levels in patients with moderate to severe HPT at the baseline.

Abstract
Burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against fibroblast growth factor 23, is mainly administered to patients with severe X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). However, there have been few reports on its use in relatively mild cases. In this report, we administered burosumab to two siblings with XLH who had been effectively treated with oral phosphate and active vitamin D. Both patients showed further improvement in radiographic and laboratory findings with burosumab compared with conventional treatment. Upon switching treatment, popliteal pain was reported in case 1 until her phosphorus levels normalized. This emphasizes the importance of monitoring not only rickets and calcium/phosphate metabolism but all symptoms of XLH after initiating burosumab. Notably, in cases 1 and 2, burosumab sustained catch-up growth, especially in case 1, who had not yet reached puberty. Further clinical studies are needed to determine whether burosumab improves growth and proportional abnormalities in patients with mild XLH.

Abstract
The importance of patient centricity and keeping the patient at the heart of research design is now well recognised within the healthcare community. The involvement of patient, caregiver and clinician representatives in the study design process may help researchers to achieve this goal and to ensure robust and meaningful data generation. Real-world data collection allows for a more flexible and patient-centred research approach for gaining important insights into the experience of disease and treatments, which is acutely relevant for rare diseases where knowledge about the disease is more likely to be limited. Here, we describe a practical example of a patient-centric, multi-stakeholder approach that led to the co-design of a prospective observational study investigating the lived experience of adolescents with the rare disease, X-linked hypophosphataemia. Specifically, we describe how the knowledge and expertise of a diverse research team, which included expert physicians, research and technology specialists, patients and caregivers, were applied in order to identify the relevant research questions and to ensure the robustness of the study design and its appropriateness to the population of interest within the context of the current clinical landscape. We also demonstrate how a structured patient engagement exercise was key to informing the selection of appropriate outcome measures, data sources, timing of data collection, and to assessing the feasibility and acceptability of the proposed data collection approach.

Abstract
Phosphate is indispensable for human life and evolutionary changes over several millions of years have established tightly regulated mechanisms to ensure phosphate homeostasis. In this process, calcium and phosphate metabolism have come to be intricately linked together. Three hormones (PTH, FGF23 and Calcitriol) maintain the fine balance of calcium and phosphate metabolism through their actions at three sites (the gut, the kidneys and the skeleton). Disorders that disrupt this balance can have serious clinical consequences. Acute changes in serum phosphate levels can result in life threatening complications like respiratory failure and cardiac arrythmias. Chronic hypophosphataemia predominantly affects the musculoskeletal system and presents as impaired linear growth, rickets, osteomalacia and dental problems. Hyperphosphataemia is very common in the setting of chronic kidney disease and can be difficult to manage. A thorough understanding of calcium and phosphate homeostasis is essential to diagnose and treat conditions associated with hypo and hyperphosphataemia. In this review, we will discuss the calcium and phosphate metabolism, aetiologies and management of hypo and hyperphosphataemia.

Abstract
In a randomized, open-label phase 3 study of 61 children aged 1-12 years old with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) previously treated with conventional therapy, changing to burosumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) for 64 weeks improved the phosphate metabolism, radiographic rickets, and growth compared with conventional therapy. In this open-label extension period (weeks 64-88), 21 children continued burosumab Q2W at the previous dose or crossed over from conventional therapy to burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg Q2W with continued clinical radiographic assessments through week 88. Efficacy endpoints and safety observations were summarized descriptively for both groups (burosumab continuation, n = 6; crossover, n = 15). At week 88 compared with baseline, improvements in the following outcomes were observed in the burosumab continuation and crossover groups, respectively: mean (SD) RGI-C rickets total score (primary outcome), +2.11 (0.27) and +1.89 (0.35); mean (SD) RGI-C lower limb deformity score, +1.61 (0.91) and +0.73 (0.82); and mean (SD) height Z-score + 0.41 (0.50) and +0.08 (0.34). Phosphate metabolism normalized rapidly in the crossover group and persisted in the continuation group. Mean (SD) serum alkaline phosphatase decreased from 169% (43%) of the upper limit of normal (ULN) at baseline to 126% (51%) at week 88 in the continuation group and from 157% (33%) of the ULN at baseline to 111% (23%) at week 88 in the crossover group. During the extension period, treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were reported in all 6 children in the burosumab continuation group and 14/15 children in the crossover group. The AE profiles in the randomized and extension periods were similar, with no new safety signals identified. Improvements from baseline in radiographic rickets continued in the extension period among children with XLH who remained on burosumab. Children who crossed over from conventional therapy to burosumab demonstrated a rapid improvement in phosphate metabolism and improved rickets healing over the ensuing 22 weeks.

Abstract
With the increased discovery of genes implicated in vitamin D metabolism and the regulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis, a growing number of genetic forms of rickets are now recognized. These are categorized into calciopenic and phosphopenic rickets. Calciopenic forms of hereditary rickets are caused by genetic mutations that alter the enzymatic activity in the vitamin D activation pathway or impair the vitamin D receptor action. Hereditary forms of phosphopenic rickets, on the other hand, are caused by genetic mutations that lead to increased expression of FGF23 hormone or that impair the absorptive capacity of phosphate at the proximal renal tubule. Due to the clinical overlap between acquired and genetic forms of rickets, identifying children with hereditary rickets can be challenging. A clear understanding of the molecular basis of hereditary forms of rickets and their associated biochemical patterns allow the health care provider to assign the correct diagnosis, avoid non-effective interventions and shorten the duration of the diagnostic journey in these children. In this mini-review, known forms of hereditary rickets listed on the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man database are discussed. Further, a clinical approach to identify and diagnose children with hereditary forms of rickets is suggested.

Abstract
CONTEXT Burosumab is approved for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and safety of burosumab in XLH patients, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science for studies on the use of burosumab in patients with XLH. Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and single-arm trials (SATs) was done to explore burosumab treatment on the efficacy and safety of XLH. RESULTS Of the 8 eligible articles, 5 were from RCTs and 3 were from SATs. Compared with the control group in RCTs, serum phosphorus level was significantly increased in the burosumab group (0.52 mg/dL, 95% CI 0.24-0.80 mg/dL). A meta-analysis of the burosumab arms in all trials revealed significant increase in serum phosphorus levels (0.78 mg/dL, 95% CI 0.61-0.96 mg/dL), TmP/GFR (0.86 mg/dL, 95% CI 0.60-1.12 mg/dL), and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D level (13.23 pg/mL, 95% CI 4.82-21.64 pg/mL) as well. Changes in secondary events also validated the effects of burosumab treatment. Compared with the control group, in RCTs, the safety profile of burosumab is not much different from the control group. Data of the single-arm combined group demonstrated the incidence of any treatment emergency adverse event (TEAE) and the related TEAE rate were high, but the severity of most adverse events is mild to moderate, and the rate of serious TEAE is low. CONCLUSION This study suggests that burosumab can be an option for patients with XLH and did not significantly increase the incidence of adverse events.

Abstract
Elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) results in rickets and phosphate wasting, manifesting by severe bone and dental abnormalities. Burosumab, a FGF23-neutralizing antibody, an alternative to conventional treatment (phosphorus and active vitamin D analogs), showed significant improvement in the long bone phenotype. Here, we examined whether FGF23 antibody (FGF23-mAb) also improved the dentoalveolar features associated with XLH. Four-week-old male Hyp mice were injected weekly with 4 or 16 mg·kg-1 of FGF23-mAb for 2 months and compared to wild-type (WT) and vehicle (PBS) treated Hyp mice (n = 3-7 mice). Micro-CT analyses showed that both doses of FGF23-mAb restored dentin/cementum volume and corrected the enlarged pulp volume in Hyp mice, the higher concentration resulting in a rescue similar to WT levels. FGF23-mAb treatment also improved alveolar bone volume fraction and mineral density compared to vehicle-treated ones. Histology revealed improved mineralization of the dentoalveolar tissues, with a decreased amount of osteoid, predentin and cementoid. Better periodontal ligament attachment was also observed, evidenced by restoration of the acellular cementum. These preclinical data were consistent with the retrospective analysis of two patients with XLH showing that burosumab treatment improved oral features. Taken together, our data show that the dentoalveolar tissues are greatly improved by FGF23-mAb treatment, heralding its benefit in clinics for dental abnormalities.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets. The genetic basis for XLH is loss of function mutations in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase X-linked (PHEX), which leads to increased circulating fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). This increase in FGF23 impairs activation of vitamin D and attenuates renal phosphate reabsorption, leading to rickets. Previous studies have demonstrated that ablating FGF23 in the Hyp mouse model of XLH leads to hyperphosphatemia, high levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and is not associated with the development of rickets. Studies were undertaken to define a role for the increase in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels in the prevention of rickets in Hyp mice lacking FGF23. These mice were mated to mice lacking Cyp27b1, the enzyme responsible for activating vitamin D metabolites, to generate Hyp mice lacking both FGF23 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (FCH mice). Mice were fed a special diet to maintain normal mineral ion homeostasis. Despite normal mineral ions, Hyp mice lacking both FGF23 and Cyp27b1 developed rickets, characterized by an interrupted, expanded hypertrophic chondrocyte layer and impaired hypertrophic chondrocyte apoptosis. This phenotype was prevented when mice were treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D from day 2 until sacrifice on day 30. Interestingly, mice lacking FGF23 and Cyp27b1 without the PHEX mutation did not exhibit rickets. These findings define an essential PHEX-dependent, FGF23-independent role for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in XLH and have important therapeutic implications for the treatment of this genetic disorder.

Abstract
CONTEXT Musculoskeletal complications are the main manifestations in adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Enthesopathy significantly impairs quality of life. OBJECTIVE To identify the risk factors associated with the development and progression of spinal enthesopathies in adults with XLH. DESIGN AND SETTING We conducted a retrospective study in the French Reference Center for Rare Diseases of the Calcium and Phosphate Metabolism. PATIENTS Adults XLH patients with 2 EOS® imaging performed at least 2 years apart at the same center between June 2011 and March 2022. The progression of enthesopathies was defined as a new enthesopathy at least 1 intervertebral level in patients with or without presence of enthesopathy at baseline. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Demographic, treatment, PHEX mutation with the progression of enthesopathies. RESULTS Fifty-one patients (66.7% of women, mean age 42.1 ± 13.4 years) underwent 2 EOS imaging with an average interval of 5.7 (± 2.31) years.Progression of spinal enthesopathies was observed in 27 (52.9%) patients. In univariate analysis, patients with a progression of spinal enthesopathies were significantly older (P < .0005), were significantly older at treatment initiation (P = .02), presented with dental complications (P = .03), received less frequently treatment during childhood with phosphate and/or vitamin D analogs (P = .06), and presented more frequently with hip osteoarthritis (P = .002) at baseline. In multivariate analysis, none of these factors was associated with a progression of spinal enthesopathies. CONCLUSION This study confirms the high proportion of patients with a progression of spinal enthesopathies. Age seems to be the main factor associated with progression.

Contributions of increased osteopontin and hypophosphatemia to dentoalveolar defects in osteomalacic Hyp mice. Bone 2023; 176:116886. [PMID: 37634682 PMCID: PMC10529969 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116886] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Revised: 06/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is an inherited disorder caused by inactivating mutations in the PHEX gene leading to renal phosphate wasting, rickets and osteomalacia. XLH is also associated with dentoalveolar mineralization defects in tooth enamel, dentin and cementum, and in alveolar bone, which lead to an increased prevalence of dental abscesses, periodontal disease and tooth loss. Genetic mouse experiments, and deficiencies in XLH patient therapies where treatments do not fully ameliorate mineralization defects, suggest that other pathogenic mechanisms may exist in XLH. The mineralization-inhibiting, secreted extracellular matrix phosphoprotein osteopontin (OPN, gene Spp1) is a substrate for the PHEX enzyme whereby extensive and inactivating degradation of inhibitory OPN by PHEX facilitates mineralization. Conversely, excess OPN accumulation in skeletal and dental tissues - for example in XLH where inactivating mutations in the PHEX gene limit degradation of inhibitory OPN, or as occurs in Fgf23-null mice - contributes to mineralization defects. We hypothesized that Spp1/OPN ablation in Hyp mice (a mouse model for XLH) would reduce dentoalveolar mineralization defects. Immunostaining revealed increased OPN in Hyp vs. wild-type (WT) alveolar bone, particularly in osteocyte lacunocanalicular networks where Hyp mice have characteristic hypomineralized peri-osteocytic lesions (POLs). Micro-computed tomography and histology showed that ablation of Spp1 in Hyp mice (Hyp;Spp1-/-) on a normal diet did not ameliorate bulk defects in enamel, dentin, or alveolar bone. On a high-phosphate diet, both Hyp and Hyp;Spp1-/- mice showed improved mineralization of enamel, dentin, and alveolar bone. Silver staining indicated Spp1 ablation did not improve alveolar or mandibular bone osteocyte POLs in Hyp mice; however, they were normalized by a high-phosphate diet in both Hyp and Hyp;Spp1-/- mice, although inducing increased OPN. Collectively, these data indicate that despite changes in OPN content in the dentoalveolar mineralized tissues, there exist other compensatory mineralization mechanisms that arise from knockout of Spp1/OPN in the Hyp background.

Abstract
This review summarizes the current knowledge of fibroblast growth factor 23 signaling in bone and its role in the disease pathology of X-linked hypophosphatemia. Craniosynostosis is an under-recognized complication of X-linked hypophosphatemia. The clinical implications and potential cellular mechanisms invoked by increased fibroblast growth factor 23 signaling causing craniosynostosis are reviewed. Knowledge gaps are identified and provide direction for future clinical and basic science studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bone disease causes significant morbidity and mortality, especially when misdiagnosed. With genetic testing, multiple disease pathologies can be analyzed. CASE PRESENTATION A 5-year and 9-month-old otherwise healthy Yemeni girl presented to her Yemen physician for evaluation of inward bending of her right knee and short stature. After extensive medical testing, she was given a diagnosis of hypophosphatemic rickets and growth hormone deficiency and started on treatment. Despite appropriate treatment, however, her condition continued to progress, prompting her family to pursue additional workup including genetic testing outside of Yemen. Genetic testing ultimately revealed a variation of unknown significance associated with amelogenesis imperfecta. CONCLUSIONS Hypophosphatemic rickets secondary to renal tubular acidosis was the working diagnosis. However, the patient's condition did not improve. Further genetic testing revealed a variation of unknown significance associated with amelogenesis imperfecta. We aim to present this case, provide an overview of the causes, and diagnostic metabolic bone health evaluation.

Abstract
CONTEXT In an open-label, randomized, controlled, phase 3 trial in 61 children aged 1 to 12 years with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), burosumab improved rickets vs continuing conventional therapy with active vitamin D and phosphate. OBJECTIVE We conducted an analysis to determine whether skeletal responses differed when switching to burosumab vs continuing higher or lower doses of conventional therapy. METHODS Conventional therapy dose groups were defined as higher-dose phosphate [greater than 40 mg/kg] (HPi), lower-dose phosphate [40 mg/kg or less] (LPi), higher-dose alfacalcidol [greater than 60 ng/kg] or calcitriol [greater than 30 ng/kg] (HD), and lower-dose alfacalcidol [60 ng/kg or less] or calcitriol [30 ng/kg or less] (LD). RESULTS At week 64, the Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) for rickets was higher (better) in children randomly assigned to burosumab vs conventional therapy for all prebaseline dose groups: HPi (+1.72 vs +0.67), LPi (+2.14 vs +1.08), HD (+1.90 vs +0.94), LD (+2.11 vs +1.06). At week 64, the RGI-C for rickets was also higher in children randomly assigned to burosumab (+2.06) vs conventional therapy for all on-study dose groups: HPi (+1.03), LPi (+1.05), HD (+1.45), LD (+0.72). Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) also decreased in the burosumab-treated patients more than in the conventional therapy group, regardless of on-study phosphate and active vitamin D doses. CONCLUSION Prior phosphate or active vitamin D doses did not influence treatment response after switching to burosumab among children with XLH and active radiographic rickets. Switching from conventional therapy to burosumab improved rickets and serum ALP more than continuing either higher or lower doses of phosphate or active vitamin D.

Abstract
Individuals with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) are at greater risk for being overweight or obese. Whether there are underlying metabolic abnormalities that put patients with XLH at greater risk for excessive weight gain is largely unknown. Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) has recently received attention as a factor regulating energy consumption and specifically is postulated to be anorexigenic and to improve insulin sensitivity. In a retrospective study, circulating levels of LCN2, leptin, and insulin were measured in 32 patients with XLH, ages 2-60 years, all of whom were being treated with burosumab, and 38 control subjects. Control subjects were chosen who were close in age to those with XLH, with a similar number of participants of each sex. Subjects were analyzed in 3 age cohorts, 2-10 years, 11-18 years, and 20-60 years. In all age groups LCN2 levels were lower in the patients with XLH than in controls but when adjusted for weight class (normal, overweight, obese) the differences were not significant. In contrast, serum leptin levels were significantly lower in children with XLH compared to controls in the 2-10 years age cohort. Serum levels of insulin were also significantly lower in the 2-10-year-old children with XLH when compared with controls. We conclude that changes in expression of lipocalin-2 in children and adolescents with XLH is unlikely to contribute to their risk for obesity in adulthood. It is unclear if lower circulating levels of leptin in these children plays a role in the higher prevalence of obesity among adults with XLH.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) associated with short stature during childhood are mostly referred to the hospital and diagnosed as vitamin D deficiency rickets and received vitamin D before adulthood. A case is presented with clinical features of hypophosphatemia from childhood who did not seek medical care for diagnosis and treatment, nor did his mother or two brothers, who have short statures, bone pain, and fractures. The patient was assessed for sociodemographic, hematological, and biochemical parameters together with a genetic assessment. A DEXA scan and X-ray were done to determine the abnormalities and deformities of joints and bones despite clinical examination by an expert physician. All imaging, laboratory parameters, and the genetic study confirmed the diagnosis of XLH. A detailed follow-up of his condition was performed after the use of phosphate tablets and other treatments. X-linked hypophosphatemia needs a good assessment, care, and follow up through a complementary medical team including several specialties. Phosphate tablets in adulthood significantly affects clinical and physical improvement and prevention of further skeletal abnormality and burden on daily activity. The patients should be maintained with an adequate dose of phosphate for better patient compliance. More awareness is needed in society and for health professionals when conducting medical checkups during the presence of stress fractures, frequent dental and gum problems, rickets, short stature, or abnormality in the skeleton or walking to think of secondary causes such as hypophosphatemia. Further investigations including a visit to a specialist is imperative to check for the primary cause of these disturbances.

Abstract
X‑linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a phosphate wasting disorder. Typical serum constellations include low serum phosphate as well as high alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23 ) levels. Adult XLH patients usually suffer from (pseudo)fractures, enthesopathies, impaired mobility, and osteoarthritis. We report the case of a middle-aged woman with clinically mild disease, relatively balanced laboratory values, but bone non-healing of the femur post-surgery. Transiliac bone biopsy revealed pronounced osteomalacia and severe deterioration of bone microstructure. Due to the lack of XLH-typical symptoms, the patient was not substituted with calcitriol and phosphate in adulthood. Thus, laboratory findings and radiological examinations do not necessarily reflect bone metabolism in XLH. Bone biopsies should be considered in unclear cases or prior to surgery in adults with XLH.

The International X-Linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH) Registry: first interim analysis of baseline demographic, genetic and clinical data. Orphanet J Rare Dis 2023; 18:304. [PMID: 37752558 PMCID: PMC10523658 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02882-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, hereditary, progressive, renal phosphate-wasting disorder characterized by a pathological increase in FGF23 concentration and activity. Due to its rarity, diagnosis may be delayed, which can adversely affect outcomes. As a chronic disease resulting in progressive accumulation of musculoskeletal manifestations, it is important to understand the natural history of XLH over the patient's lifetime and the impact of drug treatments and other interventions. This multicentre, international patient registry (International XLH Registry) was established to address the paucity of these data. Here we present the findings of the first interim analysis of the registry. RESULTS The International XLH Registry was initiated in August 2017 and includes participants of all ages diagnosed with XLH, regardless of their treatment and management. At the database lock for this first interim analysis (29 March 2021), 579 participants had entered the registry before 30 November 2020 and are included in the analysis (360 children [62.2%], 217 adults [37.5%] and 2 whose ages were not recorded [0.3%]; 64.2% were female). Family history data were available for 319/345 (92.5%) children and 145/187 (77.5%) adults; 62.1% had biological parents affected by XLH. Genetic testing data were available for 341 (94.7%) children and 203 (93.5%) adults; 370/546 (67.8%) had genetic test results; 331/370 (89.5%) had a confirmed PHEX mutation. A notably longer time to diagnosis was observed in adults ≥ 50 years of age (mean [median] duration 9.4 [2.0] years) versus all adults (3.7 [0.1] years) and children (1.0 [0.2] years). Participants presented with normal weight, shorter length or height and elevated body mass index (approximately - 2 and + 2 Z-scores, respectively) versus the general population. Clinical histories were collected for 349 participants (239 children and 110 adults). General data trends for prevalence of bone, dental, renal and joint conditions in all participants were aligned with expectations for a typical population of people with XLH. CONCLUSION The data collected within the International XLH Registry, the largest XLH registry to date, provide substantial information to address the paucity of natural history data, starting with demographic, family history, genetic testing, diagnosis, auxology and baseline data on clinical presentation.

Effects of Burosumab Treatment on Mineral Metabolism in Children and Adolescents With X-linked Hypophosphatemia. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:e998-e1006.

Abstract
CONTEXT Burosumab has been approved for the treatment of children and adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Real-world data and evidence for its efficacy in adolescents are lacking. OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of 12 months of burosumab treatment on mineral metabolism in children (aged <12 years) and adolescents (aged 12-18 years) with XLH. DESIGN Prospective national registry. SETTING Hospital clinics. PATIENTS A total of 93 patients with XLH (65 children, 28 adolescents). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Z scores for serum phosphate, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate per glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR) at 12 months. RESULTS At baseline, patients showed hypophosphatemia (-4.4 SD), reduced TmP/GFR (-6.5 SD), and elevated ALP (2.7 SD, each P < .001 vs healthy children) irrespective of age, suggesting active rickets despite prior therapy with oral phosphate and active vitamin D in 88% of patients. Burosumab treatment resulted in comparable increases in serum phosphate and TmP/GFR in children and adolescents with XLH and a steady decline in serum ALP (each P < .001 vs baseline). At 12 months, serum phosphate, TmP/GFR, and ALP levels were within the age-related normal range in approximately 42%, 27%, and 80% of patients in both groups, respectively, with a lower, weight-based final burosumab dose in adolescents compared with children (0.72 vs 1.06 mg/kg, P < .01). CONCLUSIONS In this real-world setting, 12 months of burosumab treatment was equally effective in normalizing serum ALP in adolescents and children, despite persistent mild hypophosphatemia in one-half of patients, suggesting that complete normalization of serum phosphate is not mandatory for substantial improvement of rickets in these patients. Adolescents appear to require lower weight-based burosumab dosage than children.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by high serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels, resulting in impaired 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D) production. Adults with XLH develop a painful mineralization of the tendon-bone attachment site (enthesis), called enthesopathy. Treatment of mice with XLH (Hyp) with 1,25D or an anti-FGF23 Ab, both of which increase 1,25D signaling, prevents enthesopathy. Therefore, we undertook studies to determine a role for impaired 1,25D action in enthesopathy development. Entheses from mice lacking vitamin D 1α-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) (C-/-) had a similar enthesopathy to Hyp mice, whereas deletion of Fgf23 in Hyp mice prevented enthesopathy, and deletion of both Cyp27b1 and Fgf23 in mice resulted in enthesopathy, demonstrating that the impaired 1,25D action due to high FGF23 levels underlies XLH enthesopathy development. Like Hyp mice, enthesopathy in C-/- mice was observed by P14 and was prevented, but not reversed, with 1,25D therapy. Deletion of the vitamin D receptor in scleraxis-expressing cells resulted in enthesopathy, indicating that 1,25D acted directly on enthesis cells to regulate enthesopathy development. These results show that 1,25D signaling was necessary for normal postnatal enthesis maturation and played a role in XLH enthesopathy development. Optimizing 1,25D replacement in pediatric patients with XLH is necessary to prevent enthesopathy.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, progressive, genetic disease with multisystem impact that typically begins to manifest in early childhood. Two treatment options exist: oral phosphate in combination with active vitamin D ("conventional therapy") and a fully human monoclonal anti-FGF23 antibody, burosumab. The clinical benefit of conventional therapy in adults is limited, and poor tolerance and complications are common. Burosumab was first approved as a treatment for XLH in 2018 and its disease-modifying benefits in clinical trials in children suggest burosumab treatment could also alter the disease course in adults. Without long-term clinical data on multiple XLH-related sequelae available, the results of an elicitation exercise are reported, in which eight global experts in XLH posited how long-term treatment with burosumab is anticipated to impact the life course of clinical sequelae in adults with XLH. Based on their clinical experiences, the available evidence and their disease understanding, the experts agreed that some long-term benefits of using burosumab are likely in adults with XLH even if they have a misaligned skeleton from childhood. Burosumab treatment is anticipated to reduce the incidence of fractures and halt the progression of clinical sequelae associated with conventional therapy. While the trajectories for established dental abscesses are not expected to improve with burosumab treatment, dental abscess development may be prevented. Starting treatment with burosumab in childhood to increase the likelihood of an aligned skeleton and continuation into and throughout adulthood to maintain euphosphatemia may optimize patient outcomes, although future real-world investigation is required to support this hypothesis.

Predictive factors for recurrence after lower limb deformity correction in hypophosphatemic rickets. J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:488.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment for severe lower limb deformities in patients with hypophosphatemic rickets has shown satisfactory outcomes. However, the rates of recurrence of deformities after surgical correction were high, and studies on predictive factors of recurrence were limited. This study aimed to determine the predictive factors for the recurrence of lower limb deformities after surgical correction in patients with hypophosphatemic rickets, and the effects of each predictor on the recurrence of deformities. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 16 patients with hypophosphatemic rickets aged 5-20 years and who had undergone corrective osteotomies between January 2005 and March 2019. Demographic data from the patients, biochemical profiles, and radiographic parameters were collected. Univariable Cox proportional hazard analyses of recurrence were performed. Kaplan-Meier failure estimation curves for deformity recurrences of potential predictors were created. RESULTS A total of 38 bone segments were divided into 2 groups: 8 segments with recurrent deformities and 30 segments without recurrent. The average follow-up time was 5.5 ± 4.6 years. Univariable Cox proportional hazard analyses of recurrence found that an age < 10 years (hazard ratio [HR], 5.5; 95% CI, 1.1-27.1; p = 0.04), and gradual correction by hemiepiphysiodesis (HR, 7.0; 95% CI, 1.2-42.7; p = 0.03) were associated with recurrence after surgery. The Kaplan-Meier failure estimation for deformity recurrences by age at the time of surgery also achieved a statistically significant difference between ages < 10 years and those > 10 years (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Identifying predictive factors for the recurrence of lower limb deformities after surgical correction in hypophosphatemic rickets can assist in early recognition, proper intervention, and prevention. We found that an age < 10 years at the time of surgery was associated with recurrence after deformity correction and gradual correction with hemiepiphysiodesis may also be a potential factor affecting the recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) often develop coronal plane knee deformities despite medical treatment. Hemiepiphysiodesis is an effective way to correct coronal plane knee deformities in skeletally immature patients, but a full understanding of the rate of angular correction after hemiepiphysiodesis in XLH patients, compared with idiopathic cases is lacking. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed charts of 24 XLH patients and 37 control patients without metabolic bone disease who underwent hemiepiphysiodesis. All patients were treated with standard-of-care medical therapy (SOC=active vitamin D and phosphate salt supplementation) in our clinical research center and had a minimum of 2-year follow-up after hemiepiphysiodesis. Demographic data as well as complications, repeat procedures, or recurrence/overcorrection were recorded. Standing lower extremity radiographs were evaluated before the surgical intervention and at subsequent hardware removal or skeletal maturity, whichever came first. Mean axis deviation, knee zone, mechanical lateral distal femoral angle (mLDFA), and medial proximal tibial angle were measured on each radiograph. The rate of angular correction was calculated as the change in mLDFA and medial proximal tibial angle over the duration of treatment. RESULTS The magnitude of the initial deformity of the distal femur was greater in XLH patients as compared with control for varus (XLH mLDFA 97.7 +/- 4.9 vs. Control mLDFA 92.0 +/- 2.0 degrees) and valgus (XLH mLDFA 78.7 +/- 6.2 vs. Controls mLDFA 83.6 +/- 3.2 degrees). The rate of correction was dependent on age. When correcting for age, XLH patients corrected femoral deformity at a 15% to 36% slower rate than control patients for the mLDFA (>3 y growth remaining XLH 0.71 +/- 0.46 vs. control 0.84 +/- 0.27 degrees/month, <3 y growth remaining XLH 0.37 +/- 0.33 vs. control 0.58 +/- 0.41 degrees/month). No significant differences were seen in the rate of proximal tibia correction. XLH patients were less likely to end treatment in zone 1 (55.0% XLH vs. 77.8% control). XLH patients had longer treatment times than controls (19.5 +/- 10.7 vs. 12.6 +/- 7.0 mu, P value <0.001), a higher average number of secondary procedures than controls (1.33 +/- 1.44 vs. 0.62 +/- 0.92 number of procedures), a higher rate of overcorrection than controls (29.2% vs. 5.4%), and a higher rate of subsequent corrective osteotomy than controls (37.5% vs. 8.1%). There was no significant difference in the rate of complications between groups (8.3% vs. 5.4%). CONCLUSIONS Patients with XLH undergoing hemiepiphysiodesis have a 15% to 36% slower rate of femoral deformity correction that results in longer treatment times, a higher likelihood to undergo more secondary procedures, and a lower likelihood to reach neutral mechanical alignment. SIGNIFICANCE This study provides important information to guide the timing and treatment of patients with XLH and coronal plane knee deformities. In addition, results from this study can be educational for families and patients with respect to anticipated treatment times, success rates of the procedure, complication rate, and likelihood of needing repeat procedures.

Abstract
Vitamin D plays a vital role in regulating calcium and phosphate metabolism and maintaining bone health. A state of prolonged or profound vitamin D deficiency (VDD) can result in rickets in children and osteomalacia in children and adults. Recent studies have demonstrated the pleiotropic action of vitamin D and identified its effects on multiple biological processes in addition to bone health. VDD is more prevalent in chronic childhood conditions such as long-standing systemic illnesses affecting the renal, liver, gastrointestinal, skin, neurologic and musculoskeletal systems. VDD superimposed on the underlying disease process and treatments that can adversely affect bone turnover can all add to the disease burden in these groups of children. The current review outlines the causes and mechanisms underlying poor bone health in certain groups of children and young people with chronic diseases with an emphasis on the proactive screening and treatment of VDD.
