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.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a rare, genetic renal phosphate-wasting disease, resulting from excess fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) activity, which has a progressive and profound impact on patients throughout life. The monoclonal anti-FGF23 antibody, burosumab, is a subcutaneous injection indicated for the treatment of XLH in children and adults. Originally, burosumab was approved to be administered by a healthcare professional (HCP), but the option of self-administration would enable patient independence and easier access to treatment. Two open-label, single-arm clinical trials, conducted in Japan and Korea, have assessed the safety and efficacy of self-administration of burosumab in both children and adults with XLH. METHODS In KRN23-003 (n = 15 children aged 1-12 years) and KRN23-004 (n = 5 children aged 3-13 years, n = 4 adults aged 21-65 years), children initially received 0.8 mg/kg of burosumab every 2 weeks and adults initially received 1.0 mg/kg of burosumab every 4 weeks. Self-administration was permitted from Week 4, and patients or carers were provided with training to inject correctly. RESULTS In both trials, burosumab had an acceptable safety profile with mainly mild-to-moderate adverse events. Following self-administration, no patients reported serious treatment-emergent adverse events ≥ grade 3, injection-site reactions or hypersensitivity reactions related to burosumab. Serum phosphate and active vitamin D levels increased from baseline in children and adults. CONCLUSIONS These results indicated that the efficacy and safety of burosumab when administered either by a carer or patient are similar to that when administered by an HCP and show that self-administration is a viable option for patients with XLH. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS NCT03233126 and NCT04308096.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesenchymal tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Patients present with progressive bone pain, muscle weakness, and fragility fractures. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia, excess renal phosphate excretion, and low/inappropriately normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2 D) levels. Rarity and enigmatic clinical presentation of TIO contribute to limited awareness among the medical community. Accordingly, appropriate diagnostic tests may not be requested, leading to delayed diagnosis and poorer patient outcomes. We have developed a global guidance document to improve the knowledge of TIO in the medical community, enabling the recognition of patients with TIO and appropriate referral. We provide recommendations aiding diagnosis, referral, and treatment, helping promote a global standard of patient management. We reviewed the literature and conducted a three-round Delphi survey of TIO experts. Statements were drafted based on published evidence and expert opinions (≥70% consensus required for final recommendations). Serum phosphate should be measured in patients presenting with chronic muscle pain or weakness, fragility fractures, or bone pain. Physical examination should establish features of myopathy and identify masses that could be causative tumors. Priority laboratory evaluations should include urine/serum phosphate and creatinine to assess renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate and TmP/GFR, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25(OH)2 D, and FGF23. Patients with the clinical/biochemical suspicion of TIO should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis confirmation, and functional imaging should be used to localize causative tumor(s). Recommended treatment is tumor resection or, with unresectable/unidentifiable tumors, phosphate salts plus active vitamin D, or burosumab.

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.

Abstract
Objective Burosumab, an anti-fibroblast growth factor 23 antibody, was recently approved for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH).We evaluated the safety and efficacy of burosumab in pediatric XLH patients. Methods This open-label, phase 3/4 trial of ≤ 124 weeks' duration was conducted at 4 Japanese medical centers. Fifteen children aged 1 to 12 years with XLH were included. All had previously been treated with phosphorus or vitamin D. Subcutaneous burosumab was administered every 2 weeks, starting with 0.8 mg/kg, and adjusted based on serum phosphorus levels and any safety concerns (maximum 2 mg/kg). Safety assessments included the frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Efficacy of burosumab on biochemical markers, clinical markers of rickets, motor function, and growth was also evaluated. Results The average treatment duration was 121.7 weeks. Frequently reported TEAEs were nasopharyngitis (46.7%), dental caries (40.0%), and influenza (33.3%). At baseline, patients had low serum phosphorus concentrations (2.6 ± 0.3 mg/dL) and low-to-normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D concentrations (24.7 ± 12.7 pg/mL), which increased with burosumab treatment and were maintained during the study period. Alkaline phosphatase decreased continuously. At baseline, the mean ± SD total Thacher Rickets Severity Score (RSS) was 1.3 ± 1.2, and 4 patients (26.7%) had an RSS ≥ 2.0. Mean Radiographic Global Impression of Change and RSS tended to improve, particularly in patients with higher baseline RSS. There was a trend toward increased 6-minute walk test distance. No apparent changes in growth rate were observed. Conclusion Burosumab has a good safety profile and is effective in pediatric patients with XLH.

Abstract
UNLABELLED X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a lifelong condition. Despite the mounting clinical evidence highlighting the long-term multi-organ sequelae of chronic phosphate wasting and consequent hypophosphatemia over the lifetime and the morbidities associated with adult age, XLH is still perceived as a paediatric disease. INTRODUCTION Children who have XLH need to transition from paediatric to adult healthcare as young adults. While there is general agreement that all affected children should be treated (if the administration and tolerability of therapy can be adequately monitored), there is a lack of consensus regarding therapy in adults. METHODS To provide guidance in both diagnosis and treatment of adult XLH patients and promote better provision of care for this potentially underserved group of patients, we review the available clinical evidence and discuss the current challenges underlying the transition from childhood to adulthood care to develop appropriate management and follow-up patterns in adult XLH patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Such a multi-systemic lifelong disease would demand that the multidisciplinary approach, successfully experienced in children, could be transitioned to adulthood care with an integration of specialized sub-disciplines to efficiently control musculoskeletal symptoms while optimizing patients' QoL. Overall, it would be desirable that transition to adulthood care could be a responsibility shared by the paediatric and adult XLH teams. Pharmacological management should require an adequate balance between the benefits derived from the treatment itself with complicated and long-term monitoring and the potential risks, as they may differ across age strata.

Abstract
Rickets refers to a deficient mineralization of the growth plate cartilage, predominantly affecting longer bones. Despite the fact that preventive measures are available, it is still a common disease worldwide; nutritional rickets, due to vitamin D deficiency or dietary calcium inadequate intake, remains the most common form. Medical history, physical examination, radiologic features and biochemical tests are essential for diagnosis. Although recent studies suggest hypophosphatemia as the leading alteration, rickets is classically divided into two categories: calcipenic rickets and phosphopenic rickets. Knowledge of this categorization and of respective clinical and laboratory features is essential for rapid diagnosis and correct management. The aim of this review is to analyze the epidemiological, pathogenetic, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of the different forms of rickets, describing the novelties on this “long-lived” disease.

Abstract
Raine Syndrome (RS) also referred to as lethal osteosclerotic bone dysplasia describes an exceptionally rare autosomal recessive disorder with an estimated prevalence of <1 in 1,000,000. Endocrinological manifestations such as hypophosphataemic rickets depict a recent finding within the phenotypic spectrum of nonlethal RS. The dental sequelae of hypophosphataemic rickets are significant. Spontaneous recurrent abscesses on noncarious teeth result in significant odontogenic pain and multiple dental interventions. The dental presentations of nonlethal RS are less widely described within the literature. Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI), however, was recently postulated as a key characteristic. This article presents the dental manifestations and extensive restorative and oral surgical intervention of three siblings with hypophosphataemic rickets secondary to Raine Syndrome treated at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, a tertiary referral hospital.

Abstract
The main congenital conditions of hypophosphatemia expressed in adulthood include several forms of hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets and a congenital disorder of vitamin D metabolism characterized by osteomalacia and hypophosphatemia in adult patients. Hypophosphatemia in adults is defined as serum phosphate concentration < 0.80 mmol/L. The principal regulators of phosphate homeostasis, as is well known, are parathyroid hormone (PTH), activated vitamin D, and Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23). Differential diagnosis of hypophosphatemia is based on the evaluation of mechanisms leading to this alteration, such as high PTH activity, inadequate phosphate absorption from the gut, or renal phosphate wasting, either due to primary tubular defects or high FGF23 levels. The most common inherited form associated to hypophosphatemia is X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), caused by PHEX gene mutations with enhanced secretion of the FGF23. Until now, the management of hypophosphatemia in adulthood has been poorly investigated. It is widely debated whether adult patients benefit from the conventional treatments normally used for pediatric patients. The new treatment for XLH with burosumab, a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds to FGF23, blocking its activity, may change the pharmacological management of adult subjects with hypophosphatemia associated to FGF23-dependent mechanisms.
