Abstract
BACKGROUND The design of clinical trials in rare diseases is often complicated by a lack of real-world translational knowledge. Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an ultra-rare genetic disorder characterized by skeletal malformations and progressive heterotopic ossification (HO). Palovarotene is a selective retinoic acid receptor gamma agonist. Here, we describe the methodology of three studies in the palovarotene clinical development program in FOP and discuss insights that could inform future research, including endpoint suitability and the impact of trial design. METHODS PVO-1A-001 (NCT02322255) was a prospective, protocol-specified, longitudinal FOP natural history study (NHS). PVO-1A-201 (NCT02190747) was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II trial; PVO-1A-202 (NCT02279095) was its open-label extension. Trial designs, including treatment regimens and imaging assessments, were refined between PVO-1A-201 and PVO-1A-202, and within PVO-1A-202, based on emerging data as the studies progressed. Palovarotene doses were administered using a flare-up treatment regimen (higher dose for 2/4 weeks, followed by lower dose for 4/≥8 weeks; from flare-up onset), with or without accompanying chronic (daily) treatment. Flare-up and disease progression outcomes were assessed, including incidence and volume of new HO during flare-ups and/or annually, as well as other clinical, patient-reported, and exploratory outcomes. Safety was monitored throughout all studies. RESULTS Overall, 114 and 58 individuals with FOP were enrolled in the NHS and phase II trials, respectively. Results of the NHS and PVO-1A-201 were published in 2022; complete results of PVO-1A-202 will be publicly available in due course. Together the studies yielded important information on endpoint suitability, including that low-dose whole-body computed tomography was the optimum imaging modality for assessing HO progression annually and that long study durations are needed to detect substantial changes in functional and patient-reported outcomes. CONCLUSIONS A flexible clinical development program is necessary for underexplored rare diseases to overcome the many challenges faced. Here, the NHS provided a longitudinal evaluation of FOP progression and interventional trials were based on emerging data. The studies described informed the design and endpoints implemented in the phase III MOVE trial (NCT03312634) and provide a foundation for future clinical trial development. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT02322255 (registered 23/12/2014); NCT02190747 (registered 15/07/2014); NCT02279095 (registered 30/10/2014).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Palovarotene is under development for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). The objectives of this study were to evaluate palovarotene pharmacokinetics under fed versus fasted conditions and its induction potential towards cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) substrate, midazolam. METHODS In this phase I, open-label trial (NCT04829773), palovarotene pharmacokinetics were characterized after repeated once-daily dosing. In one cohort, healthy participants received three doses of palovarotene 20 mg on Days 1, 6, and 11, as whole capsules under fasted or fed conditions, or sprinkled on food under fed conditions. In another cohort, individuals received midazolam 2 mg on Days 1 and 15 and a daily dose of palovarotene 20 mg on Days 2-15. Palovarotene and midazolam pharmacokinetics, including area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC(0-∞)) and maximum observed plasma drug concentration (Cmax), were assessed. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded. RESULTS Overall, 23 participants completed each part. Palovarotene Cmax and AUC(0-∞) increased by 16.5% and 39.7% under fed versus fasted conditions. Pharmacokinetics were comparable between the whole capsule and sprinkled on food, under fed conditions. Midazolam AUC(0-∞) and Cmax decreased by 13.3% and 9.7% upon palovarotene co-administration over 14 days, less than that required to be considered a weak CYP3A4 inducer. Plasma palovarotene exposures were comparable after single and multiple doses. No serious AEs were reported. CONCLUSIONS These data support palovarotene administration after a meal, as a whole capsule or sprinkled on food. Palovarotene at 20 mg/day is a not a clinical inducer of CYP3A4. These results provide insights into palovarotene pharmacokinetics, aiding optimization of administration for patients with FOP. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04829773.

Abstract
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an ultra-rare, severely disabling genetic disorder of progressive heterotopic ossification (HO). The single-arm, open-label, phase 3 MOVE trial (NCT03312634) assessed efficacy and safety of palovarotene, a selective retinoic acid receptor gamma agonist, in patients with FOP. Findings were compared with FOP natural history study (NHS; NCT02322255) participants untreated beyond standard of care. Patients aged ≥4 years received palovarotene once daily (chronic: 5 mg; flare-up: 20 mg for 4 weeks, then 10 mg for ≥8 weeks; weight-adjusted if skeletally immature). The primary endpoint was annualized change in new HO volume versus NHS participants (by low-dose whole-body computed tomography [WBCT]), analyzed using a Bayesian compound Poisson model (BcPM) with square-root transformation. Twelve-month interim analyses met futility criteria; dosing was paused. An independent Data Monitoring Committee recommended trial continuation. Post hoc 18-month interim analyses utilized BcPM with square-root transformation and HO data collapsed to equalize MOVE and NHS visit schedules, BcPM without transformation, and weighted linear mixed-effects (wLME) models, alongside prespecified analysis. Safety was assessed throughout. Eighteen-month interim analyses included 97 MOVE and 101 NHS individuals with post-baseline WBCT. BcPM analyses without transformation showed 99.4% probability of any reduction in new HO with palovarotene versus NHS participants (with transformation: 65.4%). Mean annualized new HO volume was 60% lower in MOVE versus the NHS. wLME results were similar (54% reduction fitted; nominal p = 0.039). All palovarotene-treated patients reported ≥1 adverse event (AE); 97.0% reported ≥1 retinoid-associated AE; 29.3% reported ≥1 serious AE, including premature physeal closure (PPC)/epiphyseal disorder in 21/57 (36.8%) patients aged <14 years. Post hoc computational analyses using WBCT showed decreased vertebral bone mineral density, content, and strength, and increased vertebral fracture risk in palovarotene-treated patients. Thus, post hoc analyses showed evidence for efficacy of palovarotene in reducing new HO in FOP, but high risk of PPC in skeletally immature patients. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Palovarotene is an oral, selective retinoic acid receptor gamma agonist under investigation for fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). Palovarotene is primarily metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. Differences in CYP-mediated metabolism of CYP substrates have been observed between Japanese and non-Japanese individuals. This phase I trial (NCT04829786) compared the pharmacokinetic profile of palovarotene in healthy Japanese and non-Japanese participants and evaluated the safety of single doses. METHODS Healthy Japanese and non-Japanese participants were matched individually (1:1) and randomized to receive a single oral dose of palovarotene 5 or 10 mg, followed by the alternate dose after a 5-day washout period. Maximum plasma drug concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) were assessed. Estimates of the geometric mean difference between dose and Japanese and non-Japanese groups were calculated for natural log-transformed Cmax and AUC parameters. Adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, and treatment-emergent AEs were recorded. RESULTS Eight pairs of matched non-Japanese and Japanese individuals and two unmatched Japanese individuals participated. Mean plasma concentration-time profiles were similar between the two cohorts at both dose levels, demonstrating that palovarotene absorption and elimination are similar irrespective of dose level. The pharmacokinetic parameters of palovarotene were similar between groups at both dose levels. Cmax and AUC values were dose-proportional between doses in each group. Palovarotene was well tolerated; there were no deaths or AEs leading to treatment discontinuation. CONCLUSIONS Japanese and non-Japanese groups had similar pharmacokinetic profiles, indicating that palovarotene dose adjustments are not necessary for Japanese patients with FOP.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was undertaken to collect baseline growth parameters in children with achondroplasia who might enroll in interventional trials of vosoritide, and to establish a historical control. METHODS In this prospective, observational study, participants (≤17 years) underwent a detailed medical history and physical examination and were followed every 3 months until they finished participating in the study by enrolling in an interventional trial or withdrawing. RESULTS A total of 363 children were enrolled (28 centers, 8 countries). Mean (SD) follow up was 20.4 (15.0) months. In participants <1 year, mean annualized growth velocity (AGV) was 11.6 cm/year for girls and 14.6 cm/year for boys. By age 1 year, mean AGV decreased to 7.4 cm/year in girls and 7.1 cm/year in boys. By age 10 years, mean AGV decreased to 3.6 cm/year for both sexes. Mean height z-score in participants <1 year was -2.5 for girls and -3.2 for boys and decreased up to the age 5 years (-5.3 for girls; -4.6 for boys). Girls and boys had a disproportionate upper-to-lower body segment ratio. Mean ratio was highest in participants aged <1 year (2.9 for girls; 2.8 for boys) and decreased gradually to approximately 2 in both sexes from 4 years of age onward. CONCLUSION This study represents one of the largest datasets of prospectively collected medical and longitudinal growth data in children with achondroplasia. It serves as a robust historical control to measure therapeutic interventions against and to further delineate the natural history of this condition.

Abstract
PURPOSE We report the first prospective, international, natural history study of the ultra-rare genetic disorder fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). FOP is characterized by painful, recurrent flare-ups, and disabling, cumulative heterotopic ossification (HO) in soft tissues. METHODS Individuals aged ≤65 years with classical FOP (ACVR1R206H variant) were assessed at baseline and over 36 months. RESULTS In total, 114 individuals participated; 33 completed the study (mean follow up: 26.8 months). Median age was 15.0 (range: 4-56) years; 54.4% were male. During the study, 82 (71.9%) individuals reported 229 flare-ups (upper back: 17.9%, hip: 14.8%, shoulder: 10.9%). After 84 days, 14 of 52 (26.9%) imaged flare-ups had new HO at the flare-up site (mean new HO volume: 28.8 × 103 mm3). Mean baseline low-dose whole-body computed tomography (excluding head) HO volume was 314.4 × 103 mm3; lowest at 2 to <8 years (68.8 × 103 mm3) and increasing by age (25-65 years: 575.2 × 103 mm3). The mean annualized volume of new HO was 23.6 × 103 mm3/year; highest at 8 to <15 and 15 to <25 years (21.9 × 103 and 41.5 × 103 mm3/year, respectively) and lowest at 25 to 65 years (4.6 × 103 mm3/year). CONCLUSION Results from individuals receiving standard care for up to 3 years in this natural history study show the debilitating effect and progressive nature of FOP cross-sectionally and longitudinally, with greatest progression during childhood and early adulthood.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alkaptonuria is a rare, genetic, multisystem disease characterised by the accumulation of homogentisic acid (HGA). No HGA-lowering therapy has been approved to date. The aim of SONIA 2 was to investigate the efficacy and safety of once-daily nitisinone for reducing HGA excretion in patients with alkaptonuria and to evaluate whether nitisinone has a clinical benefit. METHODS SONIA 2 was a 4-year, open-label, evaluator-blind, randomised, no treatment controlled, parallel-group study done at three sites in the UK, France, and Slovakia. Patients aged 25 years or older with confirmed alkaptonuria and any clinical disease manifestations were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either oral nitisinone 10 mg daily or no treatment. Patients could not be masked to treatment due to colour changes in the urine, but the study was evaluator-blinded as far as possible. The primary endpoint was daily urinary HGA excretion (u-HGA24) after 12 months. Clinical evaluation Alkaptonuria Severity Score Index (cAKUSSI) score was assessed at 12, 24, 36, and 48 months. Efficacy variables were analysed in all randomly assigned patients with a valid u-HGA24 measurement at baseline. Safety variables were analysed in all randomly assigned patients. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01916382). FINDINGS Between May 7, 2014, and Feb 16, 2015, 139 patients were screened, of whom 138 were included in the study, with 69 patients randomly assigned to each group. 55 patients in the nitisinone group and 53 in the control group completed the study. u-HGA24 at 12 months was significantly decreased by 99·7% in the nitisinone group compared with the control group (adjusted geometric mean ratio of nitisinone/control 0·003 [95% CI 0·003 to 0·004], p<0·0001). At 48 months, the increase in cAKUSSI score from baseline was significantly lower in the nitisinone group compared with the control group (adjusted mean difference -8·6 points [-16·0 to -1·2], p=0·023). 400 adverse events occurred in 59 (86%) patients in the nitisinone group and 284 events occurred in 57 (83%) patients in the control group. No treatment-related deaths occurred. INTERPRETATION Nitisinone 10 mg daily was well tolerated and effective in reducing urinary excretion of HGA. Nitisinone decreased ochronosis and improved clinical signs, indicating a slower disease progression. FUNDING European Commission Seventh Framework Programme.

Abstract
The clinical effects of alkaptonuria (AKU) are delayed and ageing influences disease progression. Morbidity of AKU is secondary to high circulating homogentisic acid (HGA) and ochronosis. It is not known whether HGA is produced by or processed in the kidney in AKU. Data from AKU patients from four studies were merged to form a single AKU group. A control group of non-AKU subjects was generated by merging data from two non-AKU studies. Data were used to derive renal clearance and fractional excretion (FE) ratios for creatinine, HGA, phenylalanine (PHE) and tyrosine (TYR) using standard calculations, for comparison between the AKU and the control groups. There were 225 AKU patients in the AKU group and 52 in the non-AKU control group. Circulating HGA increased with age (P < 0.001), and was significantly associated with decreased HGA clearance (CLHGA ) (P < 0.001) and FEHGA (P < 0.001). CLHGA and FEHGA were increased beyond the theoretical maximum renal plasma flow, confirming renal production and emphasising the greater contribution of net tubular secretion than glomerular filtration to renal elimination of HGA. The kidneys are crucial to elimination of HGA. Elimination of HGA is impaired with age resulting in worsening disease over time. The kidney is an important site for production of HGA. Tubular secretion of HGA contributes more to elimination of HGA in AKU than glomerular filtration.

Abstract
Background: FOP is an ultra-rare, severely disabling genetic disorder characterized by episodic flare-ups and heterotopic ossification (HO) leading to restricted movement, physical disability, and early death. FOP may initially be misdiagnosed in ~90% of individuals leading to unnecessary and often harmful interventions. Patients with FOP are diagnosed and managed by multiple specialties, including endocrinologists. Data from an ongoing, prospective, longitudinal, global, natural history study (NCT02322255) were used to investigate the progression of FOP, HO formation, and impact on physical functioning over time. We present results from the first 12 months of the 3-year study. Methods: Males and females with FOP and a documented ACVR1 R206H mutation participated. HO volume was assessed by low-dose whole body computed tomography (WBCT) scan, excluding the head. All imaging was interpreted at a blinded, central laboratory using pre-specified procedures. Functional outcomes were evaluated using the Cumulative Analogue Joint Involvement Scale (CAJIS; for each joint: score=0 represents <10% involvement, score=1 represents 10–90% involvement, and score=2 represents >90% ankylosed across 15 major joints; total score range 0 to 30 [higher scores indicate more severe mobility limitations]) and the FOP Physical Function Questionnaire (FOP-PFQ; percent total score). Changes from Baseline at Month 12 were evaluated for new HO volume, CAJIS, and FOP-PFQ. Results: Of 114 participants (pts) with Baseline data, 99 (4 to 56 years at enrollment; mean 17 years of age; 56% male) also had a Month 12 assessment. A total of 93 pts had evaluable WBCT scans at Baseline and Month 12 and were included in the HO analysis. In total, 40% (37/93) of pts had new HO over 12 months; the mean volume of new HO in these pts was 57,706 mm3 (SD=100,079 mm3; median=20,753 mm3; range: 522 to 438,826 mm3). Of the pts with new HO, 65% (24/37) reported at least one flare-up (mean rate of 2.3 flare-ups/year). Over 12 months, 60% (56/93) of pts did not have new HO; 43% (24/56) of them reported at least one flare-up (mean rate of 1.8 flare-ups/year). Mean changes from Baseline in CAJIS and FOP-PFQ were minimal: CAJIS: 0.6 (SD=2.4; median=1.0; n=99) and FOP-PFQ: 4.4% (SD=11.2; median=3.7%; n=90); and were similar across pts with or without new HO. Conclusions: In participants with FOP, although deterioration of physical function is expected over a patient’s lifetime, CAJIS and FOP-PFQ scores did not worsen significantly in the relative short-term of this study. However, HO volume, quantified by WBCT, increased over the course of 12 months. These results show that measuring HO may be a viable way to monitor changes in FOP over short periods of time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Achondroplasia is a genetic disorder that inhibits endochondral ossification, resulting in disproportionate short stature and clinically significant medical complications. Vosoritide is a biologic analogue of C-type natriuretic peptide, a potent stimulator of endochondral ossification. METHODS In a multinational, phase 2, dose-finding study and extension study, we evaluated the safety and side-effect profile of vosoritide in children (5 to 14 years of age) with achondroplasia. A total of 35 children were enrolled in four sequential cohorts to receive vosoritide at a once-daily subcutaneous dose of 2.5 μg per kilogram of body weight (8 patients in cohort 1), 7.5 μg per kilogram (8 patients in cohort 2), 15.0 μg per kilogram (10 patients in cohort 3), or 30.0 μg per kilogram (9 patients in cohort 4). After 6 months, the dose in cohort 1 was increased to 7.5 μg per kilogram and then to 15.0 μg per kilogram, and in cohort 2, the dose was increased to 15.0 μg per kilogram; the patients in cohorts 3 and 4 continued to receive their initial doses. At the time of data cutoff, the 24-month dose-finding study had been completed, and 30 patients had been enrolled in an ongoing long-term extension study; the median duration of follow-up across both studies was 42 months. RESULTS During the treatment periods in the dose-finding and extension studies, adverse events occurred in 35 of 35 patients (100%), and serious adverse events occurred in 4 of 35 patients (11%). Therapy was discontinued in 6 patients (in 1 because of an adverse event). During the first 6 months of treatment, a dose-dependent increase in the annualized growth velocity was observed with vosoritide up to a dose of 15.0 μg per kilogram, and a sustained increase in the annualized growth velocity was observed at doses of 15.0 and 30.0 μg per kilogram for up to 42 months. CONCLUSIONS In children with achondroplasia, once-daily subcutaneous administration of vosoritide was associated with a side-effect profile that appeared generally mild. Treatment resulted in a sustained increase in the annualized growth velocity for up to 42 months.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP; OMIM#135100) is an ultra-rare, severely disabling genetic disease characterized by congenital malformation of the great toes and progressive heterotopic ossification (HO) in muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and aponeuroses often preceded by painful, recurrent soft tissue swelling (flare-ups). The formation of HO leads to progressive disability, severe functional limitations in joint mobility, and to a shortened life-span. In this prospective natural history study, we describe the baseline, cross-sectional disease phenotype of 114 individuals with FOP. METHODS All subjects underwent protocol-specified baseline assessments to determine their disease status. Cross-sectional analyses were performed using linear regression in which functional evaluations (Cumulative Analogue Joint Involvement Scale [CAJIS] and the FOP-Physical Function Questionnaire [FOP-PFQ]) and the burden of HO as measured by low-dose whole body CT (volume of HO and number of body regions with HO) were assessed. RESULTS Findings from 114 subjects (age range 4 to 56 years) were evaluated. While subject age was significantly (p < 0.0001) correlated with increased CAJIS (r = 0.66) and FOP-PFQ scores (r = 0.41), the estimated mean increases per year (based on cross-sectional average changes over time) were small (0.47 units and 1.2%, respectively). There was also a significant (p < 0.0001) correlation between baseline age and HO volume (r = 0.56), with an estimated mean increase of 25,574 mm3/year. There were significant (p < 0.0001) correlations between the objective assessment of HO volume and clinical assessments of CAJIS (r = 0.57) and FOP-PFQ (r = 0.52). CONCLUSIONS Based on the cross-sectional analysis of the baseline data, functional and physical disability as assessed by CAJIS and the FOP-PFQ increased over time. Although longitudinal data are not yet available, the cross-sectional analyses suggest that CAJIS and FOP-PFQ are not sensitive to detect substantial progression over a 1- to 2-year period. Future evaluation of longitudinal data will test this hypothesis. The statistically significant correlations between HO volume and the functional endpoints, and the estimated average annual increase in total HO volume, suggest that the formation of new HO will be measurable over the relative short-term course of a clinical trial, and represents an endpoint that is clinically meaningful to patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study ( NCT02322255 ) was first posted on 23 December, 2014.

Abstract
SummaryThe 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) generates both nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide anion (O2−). It elicits dose-dependent vasodilation in vivo, in spite of the opposite effects of its breakdown products on vascular tone and platelet aggregation.This study was designed to investigate the influence of intravenous SIN-1 injection on platelet Ca2+ handling in patients undergoing coronary angiography. SIN-1 administration reduced cytosolic [Ca2+] in unstimulated platelets by decreasing Ca2+ influx. It attenuated Ca2+ mobilization from internal stores evoked by thrombin or thapsigargin.
In vitro studies were used as an approach to investigate how simultaneous productions of NO and O2− from SIN-1 modify thrombin- or thapsigargin-induced platelet Ca2+ mobilization. Superoxide dismutase, the O2− scavenger, enhanced the capacity of SIN-1 to inhibit Ca2+ mobilization but catalase had no effect.This suggests that the effects of SIN-1 on platelet Ca2+ handling resemble those of NO, but are modulated by simultaneous O2− release, independently of H2O2 formation.

Abstract
Background Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare, severely disabling, and life-shortening genetic disorder that causes the formation of heterotopic bone within soft connective tissue. Previous studies found that the FOP prevalence was about one in every two million lives. The aim of this study is to estimate the FOP prevalence in France by probabilistic record-linkage of 2 national databases: 1) the PMSI (Programme de médicalisation des systèmes d’information), an administrative database that records all hospitalization activities in France and 2) CEMARA, a registry database developed by the French Centres of Reference for Rare Diseases. Results Using a capture-recapture methodology to adjust the crude number of patients identified in both data sources, 89 FOP patients were identified, which results in a prevalence of 1.36 per million inhabitants (CI95% = [1.10; 1.68]). FOP patients’ mean age was 25 years, only 14.9% were above 40 years, and 53% of them were males. The first symptoms – beside toe malformations- occurred after birth for 97.3% of them. Mean age at identified symptoms was 7 years and above 18 years for only 6.9% of patients. Mean age at diagnosis was 10 years, and above 18 years for 14.9% of the patients. FOP patients were distributed across France. Conclusions Despite the challenge of ascertaining patients with rare diseases, we report a much higher prevalence of FOP in France than in previous studies elsewhere. We suggest that efforts to identify patients and confirm the diagnosis of FOP should be reinforced and extended at both national and European level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infants presenting with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency have marked failure to thrive, diarrhea, massive hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, rapidly progressive liver disease, and death typically in the first 6 months of life; the only available potential treatment has been hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality in this population. The study objective was to evaluate safety and efficacy (including survival) of enzyme replacement with sebelipase alfa in infants with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency. This is an ongoing multicenter, open-label, phase 2/3 study conducted in nine countries. The study enrolled infants with growth failure prior to 6 months of age with rapidly progressive lysosomal acid lipase deficiency; they received once-weekly doses of sebelipase alfa initiated at 0.35 mg/kg with intrapatient dose escalation up to 5 mg/kg. The main outcome of interest is survival to 12 months and survival beyond 24 months of age. RESULTS Nine patients were enrolled; median age at baseline was 3.0 months (range 1.1-5.8 months). Sixty-seven percent (exact 95% CI 30%-93%) of sebelipase alfa-treated infants survived to 12 months of age compared with 0% (exact 95% CI 0%-16%) for a historical control group (n = 21). Patients who survived to age 12 months exhibited improvements in weight-for-age, reductions in markers of liver dysfunction and hepatosplenomegaly, and improvements in anemia and gastrointestinal symptoms. Three deaths occurred early (first few months of life), two patients died because of advanced disease, and a third patient died following complications of non-protocol-specified abdominal paracentesis. A fourth death occurred at 15 months of age and was related to other clinical conditions. The five surviving patients have survived to age ≥24 months with continued sebelipase alfa treatment; all have displayed marked improvement in growth parameters and liver function. Serious adverse events considered related to sebelipase alfa were reported in one of the nine infants (infusion reaction: tachycardia, pallor, chills, and pyrexia). Most infusion-associated reactions were mild and non-serious. CONCLUSION Sebelipase alfa markedly improved survival with substantial clinically meaningful improvements in growth and other key disease manifestations in infants with rapidly progressive lysosomal acid lipase deficiency TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov NCT01371825 .

Abstract
Alkaptonuria (AKU) is caused by deficiency of the enzyme homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenase. It results in an accumulation of homogentisate which oxidizes spontaneously to benzoquinone acetate, a highly oxidant compound, which polymerises to a melanin-like structure, in a process called ochronosis. Asymptomatic during childhood, this accumulation will lead from the second decade of life to a progressive and severe spondylo-arthopathy, associated with multisystem involvement: osteoporosis/fractures, stones (renal, prostatic, gall bladder, salivary glands), ruptures of tendons/muscle/ligaments, renal failure and aortic valve disease. The pathophysiological mechanisms of AKU remain poorly understood, but recent advances lead us to reconsider the treatment strategy in AKU patients. Besides the supporting therapies (pain killers, anti-inflammatory drugs, physiotherapy, joints replacements and others), specific therapies have been considered (anti-oxidant, low protein diet, nitisinone), but clinical studies have failed to prove efficiency on the rheumatological lesions of the disease. Here we propose a treatment strategy for children and adults with AKU, based on a review of the latest findings on AKU and lessons from other aminoacipathies, especially tyrosinemias.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a serious genetic disease characterised by premature spondyloarthropathy. Homogentisate-lowering therapy is being investigated for AKU. Nitisinone decreases homogentisic acid (HGA) in AKU but the dose-response relationship has not been previously studied. METHODS Suitability Of Nitisinone In Alkaptonuria 1 (SONIA 1) was an international, multicentre, randomised, open-label, no-treatment controlled, parallel-group, dose-response study. The primary objective was to investigate the effect of different doses of nitisinone once daily on 24-h urinary HGA excretion (u-HGA24) in patients with AKU after 4 weeks of treatment. Forty patients were randomised into five groups of eight patients each, with groups receiving no treatment or 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg and 8 mg of nitisinone. FINDINGS A clear dose-response relationship was observed between nitisinone and the urinary excretion of HGA. At 4 weeks, the adjusted geometric mean u-HGA24 was 31.53 mmol, 3.26 mmol, 1.44 mmol, 0.57 mmol and 0.15 mmol for the no treatment or 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg and 8 mg doses, respectively. For the most efficacious dose, 8 mg daily, this corresponds to a mean reduction of u-HGA24 of 98.8% compared with baseline. An increase in tyrosine levels was seen at all doses but the dose-response relationship was less clear than the effect on HGA. Despite tyrosinaemia, there were no safety concerns and no serious adverse events were reported over the 4 weeks of nitisinone therapy. CONCLUSIONS In this study in patients with AKU, nitisinone therapy decreased urinary HGA excretion to low levels in a dose-dependent manner and was well tolerated within the studied dose range. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER EudraCT number: 2012-005340-24. Registered at ClinicalTrials.gov: NCTO1828463.

Abstract
Background Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diseases are rare disorders whose prevalence is estimated around 1 in 5000. Patients are usually tested only for deletions and for common mutations of mtDNA which account for 5–40% of cases, depending on the study. However, the prevalence of rare mtDNA mutations is not known. Methods We analysed the whole mtDNA in a cohort of 743 patients suspected of manifesting a mitochondrial disease, after excluding deletions and common mutations. Both heteroplasmic and homoplasmic variants were identified using two complementary strategies (Surveyor and MitoChip). Multiple correspondence analyses followed by hierarchical ascendant cluster process were used to explore relationships between clinical spectrum, age at onset and localisation of mutations. Results 7.4% of deleterious mutations and 22.4% of novel putative mutations were identified. Pathogenic heteroplasmic mutations were more frequent than homoplasmic mutations (4.6% vs 2.8%). Patients carrying deleterious mutations showed symptoms before 16 years of age in 67% of cases. Early onset disease (<1 year) was significantly associated with mutations in protein coding genes (mainly in complex I) while late onset disorders (>16 years) were associated with mutations in tRNA genes. MTND5 and MTND6 genes were identified as ‘hotspots’ of mutations, with Leigh syndrome accounting for the large majority of associated phenotypes. Conclusions Rare mitochondrial DNA mutations probably account for more than 7.4% of patients with respiratory chain deficiency. This study shows that a comprehensive analysis of mtDNA is essential, and should include young children, for an accurate diagnosis that is now accessible with the development of next generation sequencing technology.

Abstract
CONTEXT Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is a common cause of hypoglycemia in infancy. The medical treatment of diazoxide-unresponsive HI is based on a somatostatin analogue. OBJECTIVE This study aims at replacing three daily s.c. octreotide (Sandostatin, Novartis) injections by a single and monthly i.m. injection of long-acting release (LAR) octreotide (Sandostatin LP, Novartis) in HI patients. SUBJECTS AND METHOD LAR octreotide was injected every 4 weeks during 6 months and s.c. octreotide injections were stopped after the third injection of LAR octreotide. After this 6-month study, LAR octreotide was continued, with an average follow-up of 17 months. Ten HI pediatric patients unresponsive to diazoxide and currently treated with s.c. octreotide were included in the trial. Glycemias and other parameters (HbA1c, IGF1, height, weight, quality of life (QoL), and satisfaction) were monitored at each monthly visit. RESULTS For all ten patients, glycemias were maintained in the usual range, HbAlc (mean 5.5%; 95% CI: 4.6-6.2) and IGF1 (mean 89.7 ng/ml; 95% CI: 26-153) were unchanged. Patients gained height significantly (mean 2.7 cm; 95% CI: 1.9-3.4) and no side effect was noted during the study and the later follow-up. Plasma octreotide levels were stable under LAR octreotide. Parents' questionnaires of general satisfaction were highly positive whereas children's QoL evaluation remained unchanged. CONCLUSION In these diazoxide-unresponsive HI patients, LAR octreotide was efficient, well tolerated and contributed to a clear simplification of the medical care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The lethal group of short-rib polydactyly (SRP) includes type I (Saldino-Noonan; MIM 263530), type II (Majewski; MIM 263520), type III (Verma-Naumoff; MIM 263510) and type IV (Beemer-Langer; MIM 269860). Jeune and Ellis-van Creveld dysplasias also used to be classified in the SRP group. Recently, mutations in a gene encoding a protein involved in intraflagellar transport, IFT80, have been identified in 3/39 patients with Jeune dysplasia but no extraskeletal manifestation. METHODS Because of clinical and radiological similarities between Jeune dysplasia and the other lethal types of SRP, the authors decided to investigate IFT80 in a cohort of fetuses with the lethal forms of SRP (Majewski, Verma-Naumoff and Beemer-Langer) and antenatally diagnosed cases of Jeune dysplasia. Fifteen fetuses were identified. A double-molecular approach was adopted. For consanguineous families and for those with recurrent sibs, a haplotype analysis around the gene locus was first performed, and, for the others, all the coding exons of IFT80 were directly sequenced. RESULTS Using the haplotype approach for two families, the authors excluded the IFT80 region as a candidate for them. Direct sequencing of IFT80 in the other 13 cases showed a G-to-C transversion in exon 8 (G241R) in only one SRP case closely related to the type III phenotype. CONCLUSIONS The findings show that mutations in IFT80 can also be responsible for a lethal form of SRP and provide the molecular basis for the Jeune-Verma-Naumoff dysplasia spectrum.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the accuracy of 64-slice computed tomography (CT) angiography, as compared to invasive angiography, to evaluate reimplanted coronary arteries in children after arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA). BACKGROUND Assessment of the integrity of reimplanted coronary arteries is crucial for long-term outcome after ASO for TGA. Noninvasive tests have limited accuracy for detecting significant coronary lesions, and invasive coronary angiography is usually required in this setting. METHODS One hundred thirty consecutive children, after ASO for TGA (age 5.6 +/- 1.1 years), underwent conventional invasive coronary angiography and coronary CT angiography using a 64-slice scanner. The ability of CT to detect significant coronary stenoses (>30% diameter reduction) of the coronary ostia and proximal segments, and other abnormalities of the coronary arteries was analyzed by blinded comparison to the invasive coronary angiogram. RESULTS The CT was fully evaluable in 126 of 130 patients (97%), allowing assessment of ostia and proximal segments of all coronary arteries. The CT correctly detected all 12 patients (9.2%) in whom invasive coronary angiography had identified significant coronary lesions, with a sensitivity, specificity, and negative predictive value of 100%. In addition, CT showed nonsignificant coronary lesions (<30% luminal narrowing) in 6 patients and allowed determination of the underlying reasons for coronary luminal narrowing, such as stretching or compression of the re-implanted coronary arteries caused by their anatomic relationship to the adjacent great vessels. CONCLUSIONS 64-slice CT coronary angiography performs as well as invasive angiography for detecting significant coronary lesions in the majority of children who have undergone the arterial switch procedure for TGA. CT also provides information on the underlying mechanism of coronary luminal narrowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sirolimus is an immunosuppressive drug recently developed for organ transplantation. Its mechanism of action, independent of calcineurin, is different from that of cyclosporine and tacrolimus, two calcineurin inhibitors (CIs). Because the toxicity of CIs is partly the result of calcineurin blockade, sirolimus exhibits a different toxicity profile. In this study, we evaluated the profile, frequency, and severity of cutaneous adverse events in renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus-based therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A systematic and in-depth evaluation of skin, mucous membranes, nails, and hair was performed in 80 renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus-based therapy. The mean duration of the graft was 6 years and of sirolimus treatment was 18 months. Mycophenolate mofetil and steroids were combined with sirolimus for 74 patients. Sirolimus was used as first immunosuppressive therapy for 36 patients, and 44 patients were switched from CIs to sirolimus. RESULTS Seventy-nine patients (99%) experienced cutaneous adverse events. Twenty patients (25%) demonstrated serious adverse events, and six patients (7%) stopped sirolimus during the 3 months after the study because of cutaneous events. The most frequent of these were pilosebaceous apparatus involvement, including acne-like eruptions (46%), scalp folliculitis (26%), and hidradenitis suppurativa (12%); edematous complaints, including chronic edemas (55%) and angioedema (15%); mucous membrane disorders, including aphthous ulceration (60%), epistaxis (60%), chronic gingivitis (20%), and chronic fissure of the lips (11%); and last, nail disorders including chronic onychopathy (74%) and periungual infections (16%). CONCLUSIONS Skin disorders are frequent in renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus as a long-term therapy. Despite the usually mild nature of skin events, they are often the reason for stopping sirolimus.

Abstract
SummaryThis study was designed to assess whether platelet Ca2+ handling or membrane microviscosity could be considered as indexes of vascular tone, or could help to predict an increased risk of restenosis after coronary angioplasty. Vascular tone was quantified in 21 patients with stable angina by the vasodilator response to sin-1 intracoronary injection in the reference coronary segment and by the importance of the acute recoil after angioplasty in the narrowed segment. The degree of restenosis was quantified by coronary angiography 6 months later.Individual values of relative sin-1-induced changes in the reference coronary diameter were positively correlated with cytosolic Ca2+ concentration in unstimulated platelets, irrespective of the extracellular Ca2+ concentration (p <0.01). This relationship was also observed with the thrombin-evoked Ca2+ changes, measured in the absence of a Ca2+ influx (p = 0.01). No relationship was found between sin-1-induced coronary changes and membrane microviscosity evaluated by TMADPH and DPH anisotropies or platelet volume, or between degree of acute recoil and platelet characteristics.In conclusion, platelet Ca2+ reflects the vasodilating efficacy in response to sin-1, but cannot help to predict restenosis after coronary angioplasty.
