Orlando G, Roy M, Bubbear J, Clarke S, Keen R, Javaid MK, Ireland A. Longitudinal assessment of physical function in adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia following initiation of burosumab therapy. Osteoporos Int 2024:10.1007/s00198-024-07095-4. [PMID: 39028421 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-024-07095-4] [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: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
We assessed multiple components of muscle function in ten adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) receiving burosumab treatment. Lower limb power (+ 9%), short physical performance battery (SPPB) score (+ 1.2 points), and physical activity (+ 65%) increased following 6 months of treatment, and hand grip increased (+ 10%) between 6 and 12 months of treatment. PURPOSE X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disorder of phosphate metabolism. Burosumab is a monoclonal antibody treatment shown to improve phosphate homeostasis and improve symptoms as well as fracture healing when used as a therapy for XLH in adults. However, little is known about its effects on the large deficits in multiple components of physical function previously reported in XLH. METHODS Ten adults (6 females, age 41.1 ± 15.7 y) were recruited from specialist centres in London and Bristol. During clinical visits for initial burosumab treatment and at 6-month and 12-month follow-up, physical function, and physical activity (PA) assessments were performed. In detail, lower limb power was assessed by mechanography via a countermovement jump, mobility by short physical performance battery (SPPB), functional capacity by 6-min walk test (6MWT), upper limb strength by hand grip dynamometry, and PA via an International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Differences between baseline and 6-month follow-up, and in a subset of 5 patients between 6- and 12-month follow-up, were assessed. RESULTS Lower limb power increased by 9% (P = 0.049) from baseline to 6 months, as did SPPB score (+ 1.2 points, P = 0.033) and total PA (+ 65%, P = 0.046) although hand grip and 6MWT did not differ. Only for hand grip was a significant improvement (+ 10%, P = 0.023) seen between 6 and 12 months. CONCLUSIONS Burosumab treatment is associated with improved lower limb function and mobility at 6 months, with improvement in hand grip strength at 12 months. Future studies should explore the underlying mechanisms and describe on function and other patient outcomes.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common monogenetic cause of chronic hypophosphatemia, characterized by rickets and osteomalacia. Disease manifestations and treatment of XLH patients in the Netherlands are currently unknown. Characteristics of XLH patients participating in the Dutch observational registry for genetic hypophosphatemia and acquired renal phosphate wasting were analyzed. Eighty XLH patients, including 29 children, were included. Genetic testing, performed in 78.8% of patients, showed a PHEX mutation in 96.8%. Median (range) Z-score for height was - 2.5 (- 5.5; 1.0) in adults and - 1.4 (- 3.7; 1.0) in children. Many patients were overweight or obese: 64.3% of adults and 37.0% of children. All children received XLH-related medication e.g., active vitamin D, phosphate supplementation or burosumab, while 8 adults used no medication. Lower age at start of XLH-related treatment was associated with higher height at inclusion. Hearing loss was reported in 6.9% of children and 31.4% of adults. Knee deformities were observed in 75.0% of all patients and osteoarthritis in 51.0% of adult patients. Nephrocalcinosis was observed in 62.1% of children and 33.3% of adults. Earlier start of XLH-related treatment was associated with higher risk of nephrocalcinosis and detection at younger age. Hyperparathyroidism longer than six months was reported in 37.9% of children and 35.3% of adults. This nationwide study confirms the high prevalence of adiposity, hearing loss, bone deformities, osteoarthritis, nephrocalcinosis and hyperparathyroidism in Dutch XLH patients. Early start of XLH-related treatment appears to be beneficial for longitudinal growth but may increase development of nephrocalcinosis.

Effect of Burosumab on Muscle Function and Strength, and Rates of ATP Synthesis in Skeletal Muscle in Adults With XLH. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2024; 109:e1061-e1071. [PMID: 37930769 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgad642] [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: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT In clinical trials, burosumab ameliorates symptoms of pain, fatigue, and stiffness and improves performance on certain muscle function studies in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). OBJECTIVE This work aimed to determine if burosumab increases adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis in skeletal muscle of treatment-naive adults with XLH, and if so, whether that correlates with improved muscle function. METHODS Ten untreated, symptomatic adults with XLH had ATP synthesis rates measured in the right calf using the 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy saturation transfer technique. Baseline muscle function tests and symptoms of pain, fatigue, stiffness, and lower-extremity joint pain were quantified. All participants were treated with burosumab, 1 mg/kg every 4 weeks for 12 weeks. ATP synthesis rates and muscle function tests were repeated 2 weeks ("peak") and 4 weeks ("trough") after the third dose of burosumab. RESULTS All symptoms improved with treatment. Performance on the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) and Sit to Stand (STS) tests also improved. Muscle strength and ATP synthesis rates did not change over the 3 months of the study. When individuals whose performances on the 6MWT and STS test were at or better than the median outcome for those tests were compared to those whose outcomes were below the median, no difference was observed in the rate of change in ATP synthesis. Intracellular muscle concentrations of phosphate were normal. CONCLUSION The improvement in the 6MWT and STS test without changes in muscle strength or ATP synthesis rates suggests that reductions in pain, fatigue, and stiffness may partly explain the improved performance. Intracellular phosphate in skeletal muscle is insulated from hypophosphatemia in XLH.

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.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined whether decline in cognitive function is related to arterial stiffness and reduction in physical fitness in middle-aged and older adults. METHODS A total of 1554 healthy middle-aged and older adults participated in this study. The trail making test parts-A (TMT-A) and B (TMT-B), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), grip strength, the 30-s chair stand (CS-30) test, the 6-min walk (6MW) test, the 8-foot up-and-go (8UG) test and gait assessment were performed. Participants were classified into a middle-aged group (40-64 years; mean, 50.4 ± 0.2 years) or an older group (≥ 65 years; mean, 73.1 ± 0.5 years), as well as into three cognition (COG) groups (high, moderate, and low) based on median TMT-A and -B scores (high scores on both, either, or neither TMT-A and -B, respectively). RESULTS The results revealed that baPWV was significantly lower in the high-than in the moderate- and low-COG groups in both middle-aged and older adults (P < 0.05). In addition, except for a few parameters (e.g., 6MW test in middle-aged adults), physical fitness was significantly higher in the high-than in the moderate- and low-COG groups in both middle-aged and older adults (P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that baPWV (P < 0.05) and some physical fitness indicators (grip strength, CS-30, and 8UG) were significantly independently associated with both TMT-A and -B in the middle-aged and older groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION These results suggest that increased arterial stiffness and reduced physical fitness are associated with impaired cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults.

Abstract
The term osteomalacia (OM) refers to a series of processes characterized by altered mineralization of the skeleton, which can be caused by various disorders of mineral metabolism. OM can be genetically determined or occur due to acquired disorders, among which the nutritional origin is particularly relevant, due to its wide epidemiological extension and its nature as a preventable disease. Among the hereditary diseases associated with OM, the most relevant is X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), which manifests in childhood, although its consequences persist into adulthood where it can acquire specific clinical characteristics, and, although rare, there are XLH cases that reach the third or fourth decade of life without a diagnosis. Some forms of OM present very subtle initial manifestations which cause both considerable diagnosis and treatment delay. On occasions, the presence of osteopenia and fragility fractures leads to an erroneous diagnosis of osteoporosis, which may imply the prescription of antiresorptive drugs (i.e., bisphosphonates or denosumab) with catastrophic consequences for OM bone. On the other hand, some radiological features of OM can be confused with those of axial spondyloarthritis and lead to erroneous diagnoses. The current prevalence of OM is not known and is very likely that its incidence is much higher than previously thought. Moreover, OM explains part of the therapeutic failures that occur in patients diagnosed with other bone diseases. Therefore, it is essential that clinicians who treat adult skeletal diseases take into account the considerations provided in this practical review when focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of their patients with bone diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To report the impact of continued burosumab treatment on clinical laboratory tests of efficacy, patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and ambulatory function in adults with X-linked hypophosphataemia who continued from a 96-week phase 3 study into a 48-week open-label extension. METHODS Eligible participants from the phase 3 study continued on the burosumab regimen received at the end of the phase 3 study for a further 48 weeks (n=31). Some (not all) received compassionate burosumab treatment between the two studies (a period of 6-18 months). The primary efficacy outcome was fasting serum phosphate concentration; secondary outcomes were serum 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D concentration, renal phosphate reabsorption, PROs and ambulatory function. RESULTS Improvements in fasting serum phosphate, serum 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D and renal phosphate reabsorption at 96 weeks were maintained through the 48-week extension. Improvements were also maintained in stiffness and physical function measured using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, pain and fatigue endpoints measuring using the Brief Pain Inventory short-form and Brief Pain Inventory, respectively, and in ambulatory function (6-Minute Walk Test).A post-hoc exploratory analysis exploring outcomes in participants who discontinued burosumab treatment between the studies (n=7) and those who received at least one dose (n=23) indicated that the benefits of burosumab on clinical laboratory tests of efficacy, PROs and ambulatory function may be lost when treatment is interrupted but recover over time when treatment is reinstated. CONCLUSION Continued treatment with burosumab appears necessary for sustained clinical benefit. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS Phase 3: NCT02526160; open-label extension: NCT03920072.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common hereditary form of rickets and deficiency of renal tubular phosphate transport in humans. XLH is caused by the inactivation of mutations within the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene and follows an X-dominant transmission. It has an estimated frequency of 1 case per 20,000, and over 300 distinct pathogenic variations have been reported that result in an excess of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in the serum. Increased levels of FGF23 lead to renal phosphate loss, decreased serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and increased metabolism of 1,25-dihydoxyvitamin D, resulting in hypophosphatemia. Major clinical manifestations include rickets, bone deformities, and growth retardation that develop during childhood, and osteomalacia-related fractures or pseudo-fractures, degenerative osteoarthritis, enthesopathy, dental anomalies, and hearing loss during adulthood, which can affect quality of life. In addition, fatigue is also a common symptom in patients with XLH, who experience decreased motion, muscle weakness, and pain, contributing to altered quality of life. The clinical and biomedical characteristics of XLH are extensively defined in bone tissue since skeletal deformations and mineralization defects are the most evident effects of high FGF23 and low serum phosphate levels. However, despite the muscular symptoms that XLH causes, very few reports are available on the effects of FGF23 and phosphate in muscle tissue. Given the close relationship between bones and skeletal muscles, studying the effects of FGF23 and phosphate on muscle could provide additional opportunities to understand the interactions between these two important compartments of the body. By describing the current literature on XLH and skeletal muscle dysfunctions, the purpose of this review is to highlight future areas of research that could contribute to a better understanding of XLH muscular disability and its management.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of inherited disorders that are characterized by renal phosphate wasting, but it is a rare chronic disease. XLH presents in multisystemic organs, not only in childhood, but also in adulthood. Multidisciplinary team management is necessary for the care of patients with XLH. Although XLH has often been perceived as a childhood disease, recent studies have demonstrated that it is a long-term and progressive disease throughout adulthood. In the past 20 years, the importance of the transition from pediatric care to adult care for patient outcomes in adulthood in many pediatric onset diseases has been increasingly recognized. This review describes transitional care and team management for patients with XLH.

After reading the full texts of the studies, and according to previously defined eligibility criteria, fifteen studies met the inclusion criteria; however, there was not a single intervention study with physical exercise. Several cross-sectional, review, or qualitative studies presented a set of essential aspects that future intervention studies can consider when evaluating, prescribing, and implementing physical exercise programs, as they allowed the physical characterization of the SD population. This study demonstrated an apparent scarcity in the literature of experimental studies with physical exercise implementation in the SD population.
