Burosumab (KRN23) is an FGF23 neutralizing antibody that has been the subject of several recent clinical trials principally focused on the treatment of hypophosphatemic rickets in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Since the first publications in 2014, these trials have demonstrated efficacy with minimal safety concerns in both adult and pediatric cohorts. These studies have used dose-escalation to establish a dosing regimen that is well-tolerated in clinical use. This review summari ...[more]

Project description:Abstract XLH is characterized by excess FGF23, hypophosphatemia, skeletal deformities, and growth impairment. For the last 40 years, XLH has been treated with multiple daily doses of oral phosphate and active vitamin D (Pi/D). Burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody to FGF23, has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of XLH in patients ≥1 year-old. In this Phase 3 trial (NCT02915705), 61 children with XLH (1-12 years old) were randomized (1:1) to receive subcutaneous burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg every 2 weeks or continue Pi/D titrated and individualized for each subject by investigators. Eligibility criteria included a Total Rickets Severity Score (RSS) ≥2.0 despite prior treatment with Pi/D (>7-day washout before baseline). The primary endpoint was healing of rickets at Week 40 assessed by radiologists blinded to treatment using the Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C). The mean ± SE daily oral phosphate dose from baseline to Week 40 was 37.8 ± 3.2 mg/kg, with >99% compliance reported based on days of dosing. Compared with Pi/D, 40 weeks of burosumab resulted in a greater LS mean ± SE increase in serum phosphorus (0.92 ± 0.08 vs 0.20 ± 0.06 mg/dL), TmP/GFR (1.19 ± 0.11 vs -0.16 ± 0.05 mg/dL), and 1,25(OH)2D (30 ± 4 vs 19 ± 4 pg/mL). At Week 40, rickets improved in both groups; RGI-C global score was significantly higher in burosumab subjects than in Pi/D subjects (LS mean ± SE: +1.9 ± 0.1 vs +0.8 ± 0.1; p<0.0001). More burosumab subjects had substantial healing (RGI-C ≥+2.0), compared with Pi/D subjects (21/29, 72% vs 2/32, 6%; odds ratio of 39.1, p<0.0001). Improvement in the RGI-C lower limb deformity score was greater with burosumab than with Pi/D (+0.62 ± 0.12 vs +0.21 ± 0.12; p=0.02). Alkaline phosphatase decreased more with burosumab compared with Pi/D (-131 ± 13 vs 35 ± 19; p<0.0001). Consistent with decreases in rickets severity, burosumab improved growth and mobility. Standing height Z-score increased by a LS mean change (95% CI) of +0.15 (0.05, 0.25) for burosumab and +0.08 (-0.02, 0.19) for Pi/D. The 6 Minute Walk Test percent predicted distance increased with burosumab (Baseline to Week 40: 62% to 72%) and was unchanged with Pi/D (76% to 75%). Nephrocalcinosis score (range 0-4) shifted 0 in 20 Pi/D and 24 burosumab subjects; +1 in 3 Pi/D and 0 burosumab subjects; and -1 in 3 Pi/D and 2 burosumab subjects. Pre-defined adverse events (AEs) of interest, including hypersensitivity and injection site reactions, were higher in the burosumab group and were mild to moderate in severity overall. There were 4 serious AEs (3 burosumab, 1 Pi/D); none were treatment-related and all resolved. No subject discontinued study drug in either group. Data after 64 weeks of treatment will be available at the time of presentation. In this randomized Phase 3 trial, burosumab resulted in increases in growth and mobility, and significantly greater improvements in rickets than Pi/D in 1-12 year-old children with XLH.

Project description:Abstract In XLH, excess circulating FGF23 causes hypophosphatemia, rickets, lower limb deformity, and impaired growth and mobility. An active-controlled, phase 3 trial (CL301; NCT02915705) showed treatment with burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against FGF23, resulted in significantly greater improvements in all of these outcomes in children with XLH, compared with continuing oral phosphate and active vitamin D as conventional therapy (Pi/D) per established guidelines. In a post-hoc analysis, we compared children who received burosumab vs those who received an average 64-week oral phosphate daily dose >40 mg/kg (higher-dose Pi) vs ≤40 mg/kg (lower-dose Pi). Sixty-one children with XLH (1–12 years-old) were randomized 1:1 after a 7-day Pi/D washout to receive burosumab (n=29) starting at 0.8 mg/kg subcutaneously Q2W or to resume Pi/D (n=32) titrated by their investigator, for 64 weeks. Eligibility criteria included Rickets Severity Score (RSS) ≥2.0 despite prior Pi/D treatment. Of the 32 subjects randomized to Pi/D, 12 received average higher-dose Pi and 20 received average lower-dose Pi (as specified above). The primary endpoint was rickets healing, using the Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) Scale. At week 64, the improvement in the least square (LS) mean (LS mean [±SE; 95%CI]) RGI-C Global Score for rickets was greater on burosumab (+2.06 [0.072; 1.92, 2.20]) compared with either higher-dose (+1.02 [0.241; 0.55, 1.50]) or lower-dose (+1.04 [0.162; 0.73, 1.36]) Pi. The mean decrease in the total RSS from baseline was also greater on burosumab (-2.23 [0.117; -2.46, -2.00]) compared with higher-dose (-0.87 [0.264; -1.39, -0.35] or lower-dose (-1.09 [0.180; -1.45, -0.74]) Pi. Similarly, the mean RGI-C Lower Limb Deformity Score was greater on burosumab (+1.25 [0.170; 0.92, 1.59]) compared with either higher-dose (+0.32 [0.188; -0.05, 0.69]) or lower-dose (+0.26 [0.146; -0.02, 0.55]) Pi. Adverse events including hypersensitivity and injection site reactions, were more frequent with burosumab, and were mild to moderate in severity overall. No discontinuations occurred. In conclusion, children with XLH treated with burosumab had greater improvements in rickets and lower limb deformity compared with subjects receiving higher or lower doses of Pi.

Project description:Given the relatively recent introduction of burosumab in the management of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), there is limited real-world data to guide its use in clinical practice. As a group of European physicians experienced with burosumab treatment in clinical practice, we convened with the objective of sharing these practice-based insights on the use of burosumab in children and adolescents with XLH. We attended two virtual meetings, then discussed key questions via Within3, a virtual online platform. Points of discussion related to patient selection criteria, burosumab starting dose, dose titration and treatment monitoring. Our discussions revealed that criteria for selecting children with XLH varied across Europe from all children above 1 year to only children with overt rickets despite conventional treatment being eligible. We initiated burosumab dosing according to guidance in the Summary of Product Characteristics, an international consensus statement from 2019 and local country guidelines. Dose titration was primarily guided by serum phosphate levels, with some centers also using the ratio of tubular maximum reabsorption of phosphate to glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR). We monitored response to burosumab treatment clinically (growth, deformities, bone pain and physical functioning), radiologically (rickets and deformities) and biochemically (serum phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, urine calcium-creatinine ratio and TmP/GFR). Key suggestions made by our group were initiation of burosumab treatment in children as early as possible, from the age of 1 year, particularly in those with profound rickets, and a need for clinical studies on continuation of burosumab throughout adolescence and into adulthood.

Project description:Changing to burosumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting fibroblast growth factor 23, significantly improved phosphorus homeostasis, rickets, lower-extremity deformities, mobility, and growth versus continuing oral phosphate and active vitamin D (conventional therapy) in a randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial involving children aged 1-12 years with X-linked hypophosphatemia. Patients were randomized (1:1) to subcutaneous burosumab or to continue conventional therapy. We present patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from this trial for children aged ≥ 5 years at screening (n = 35), using a Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) questionnaire and SF-10 Health Survey for Children. PROMIS pain interference, physical function mobility, and fatigue scores improved from baseline with burosumab at weeks 40 and 64, but changed little with continued conventional therapy. Pain interference scores differed significantly between groups at week 40 (- 5.02, 95% CI - 9.29 to - 0.75; p = 0.0212) but not at week 64. Between-group differences were not significant at either week for physical function mobility or fatigue. Reductions in PROMIS pain interference and fatigue scores from baseline were clinically meaningful with burosumab at weeks 40 and 64 but not with conventional therapy. SF-10 physical health scores (PHS-10) improved significantly with burosumab at week 40 (least-squares mean [standard error] + 5.98 [1.79]; p = 0.0008) and week 64 (+ 5.93 [1.88]; p = 0.0016) but not with conventional therapy (between-treatment differences were nonsignificant). In conclusion, changing to burosumab improved PRO measures, with statistically significant differences in PROMIS pain interference at week 40 versus continuing with conventional therapy and in PHS-10 at weeks 40 and 64 versus baseline.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02915705.

Project description:In adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), excess FGF23 impairs renal phosphate reabsorption and suppresses production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, resulting in chronic hypophosphatemia and persistent osteomalacia. Osteomalacia is associated with poor bone quality causing atraumatic fractures, pseudofractures, delayed fracture healing, and bone pain. Burosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody against FGF23. UX023-CL304 is an ongoing, open-label, single-arm, phase 3 study investigating the efficacy of subcutaneous burosumab, 1.0?mg/kg administered every 4?weeks, in improving osteomalacia in adults with XLH who have not been treated for at least 2?years before enrollment. The primary endpoint was improvement in osteoid volume/bone volume assessed by transiliac bone biopsies obtained at baseline and week 48. Additional assessments included serum phosphorus, markers of bone turnover, fracture/pseudofracture healing, and safety. Fourteen subjects enrolled, 13 completed 48?weeks, and 11 completed paired biopsies. All osteomalacia-related histomorphometric measures improved significantly at week 48 (mean percent change: osteoid volume/bone volume, -54%, osteoid thickness, -32%, osteoid surface/bone surface, -26%, [median] mineralization lag time, -83%). Mean serum phosphorus concentration averaged across the mid-point of the dose cycle between weeks 0 and 24 was 3.3?mg/dL, a 50% increase from 2.2?mg/dL at baseline. Markers of bone formation and resorption increased at week 48 (least squares [LS] mean increase: P1NP, +77%; CTx, +36%; both p?<?0.0001). All subjects had one or more treatment-emergent adverse event (AE). Most AEs were mild to moderate in severity. Two subjects experienced serious AEs (migraine; paresthesia) that were unrelated to treatment and resolved. Eleven subjects had 18 biopsy procedure-related AEs: 14 for pain, two for itch, and one each for headache and bandage irritation. No deaths or incidents of hyperphosphatemia occurred. In conclusion, by normalizing phosphate homeostasis, burosumab significantly improved osteomalacia in adults with XLH, which likely explains the improved fracture healing and amelioration of skeletal complications. © 2019 The Authors.

Project description:X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) causes significant burden in pediatric patients in spite of maintained treatment with phosphate supplements and vitamin D derivatives. Administration of burosumab has shown promising results in clinical trial but studies assessing its effect in the everyday practice are missing. With this aim, we analyzed the response to one-year treatment with burosumab, injected subcutaneously at 0.8 mg/kg every 2 weeks, in five children (three females) aged from 6 to 16 years, with genetically confirmed XLH. Patients were being treated with phosphate and vitamin D analogs until the beginning of burosumab treatment. In all children, burosumab administration led to normalization of serum phosphate in association with marked increase of tubular reabsorption of phosphate and reduction of elevated serum alkaline phosphatase levels. Baseline height of patients, from -3.56 to -0.46 SD, increased in the three prepubertal children (+0.84, +0.89, and +0.16 SD) during burosumab treatment. Growth improvement was associated with reduction in body mass index (-1.75, -1.47, and -0.17 SD, respectively), suggesting a salutary effect of burosumab on physical activity and body composition. Burosumab was well-tolerated, mild local pain at the injection site and transient and mild headache following the initial doses of burosumab being the only reported undesirable side effects. No patient exhibited hyperphosphatemia, progression of nephrocalcinosis, worsening of metabolic control or developed hyperparathyroidism. Mild elevation of serum PTH present at the beginning of treatment in one patient 4 was not modified by burosumab administration. These results indicate that in the clinical setting, beyond the strict conditions and follow-up of clinical trials, burosumab treatment for 1 year exerts positive effects in pediatric patients with XLH without major adverse events.

Project description:Burosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody against fibroblast growth factor 23, which has been approved to treat X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) in adult and pediatric patients. The present work describes the pharmacokinetics (PK) of burosumab and the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) relationship between burosumab and serum phosphorus in adult and pediatric patients with XLH. A total of 2844 measurable serum concentrations of burosumab and 6047 measurable serum concentrations of phosphorus in 277 subjects from 9 clinical studies were included in the population PK and PK-PD modeling. The serum concentration of burosumab following a subcutaneous administration was well described by a population PK model comprising a first-order absorption, 1-compartmental distribution, and a linear elimination. The relationship between serum burosumab and serum phosphorus was adequately described by a sigmoid maximal efficacy model. Body weight was the only covariate associated with PK and PK-PD parameters. No other intrinsic factors affected PK or PK-PD relationship in adult and pediatric patients with XLH. Further simulations helped to guide the dosing regimen of burosumab in adult and pediatric patients with XLH including age groups with no clinical data.

Project description:BackgroundX-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.ResultsThe 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.ConclusionThe 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.

Project description:X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a disease caused by abnormally elevated FGF23 levels, which cause persistent hypophosphatemia accompanied by subsequent reduction in bone mineralization that presents as rickets or osteomalacia. Burosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting FGF23 that is under development for the treatment of FGF23-related hypophosphatemia including XLH. The safety, tolerability, and proof of concept of burosumab have been evaluated in patients with XLH in previous studies conducted in countries outside of Asia. The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and expression of anti-drug antibodies in Japanese and Korean adults with XLH. This was a multicenter, sequential dose-escalation, open-label, single-dose study. This study began with cohort 1 (s.c. dose of burosumab 0.3?mg/kg), after which the dose was escalated sequentially in cohort 2 (s.c. dose of burosumab 0.6?mg/kg) and cohort 3 (s.c. dose of burosumab 1.0?mg/kg). The PK of burosumab were linear within the dose range of 0.3 to 1.0?mg/kg. The PD effects such as serum phosphorus concentration, serum 1,25[OH]2D3 concentration, and ratio of tubular maximum reabsorption rate of phosphate to glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR) were elevated after a single s.c. administration. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve from 0 to t (AUC0-t) values calculated using the change from baseline values of serum phosphorus, serum 1,25(OH)2D3, and TmP/GFR were correlated with the AUC0-t of burosumab. Furthermore, no serious adverse events (AEs), deaths, remarkable increase or decrease in the corrected calcium or intact PTH levels, or signs of nephrocalcinosis or its worsening were observed after treatment. Some AEs and drug-related AEs were observed; however, there were no clinically meaningful tendencies. The positive effects and acceptable safety profile seen in this study are encouraging for Japanese and Korean patients with XLH.

Project description:X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), the most common form of hereditary hypophosphatemia, is caused by disrupting variants in the PHEX gene, located on the X chromosome. XLH is inherited in an X-linked pattern with complete penetrance observed for both males and females. Patients experience lifelong symptoms resulting from chronic hypophosphatemia, including impaired bone mineralization, skeletal deformities, growth retardation, and diminished quality of life. This chronic condition requires life-long management with disease-specific therapies, which can improve patient outcomes especially when initiated early in life. To centralize and disseminate PHEX variant information, we have established a new PHEX gene locus-specific database, PHEX LSDB. As of April 30, 2021, 870 unique PHEX variants, compiled from an older database of PHEX variants, a comprehensive literature search, a sponsored genetic testing program, and XLH clinical trials, are represented in the PHEX LSDB. This resource is publicly available on an interactive, searchable website (https://www.rarediseasegenes.com/), which includes a table of variants and associated data, graphical/tabular outputs of genotype-phenotype analyses, and an online submission form for reporting new PHEX variants. The database will be updated regularly with new variants submitted on the website, identified in the published literature, or shared from genetic testing programs.
