Clinical guidelines for burosumab in the treatment of XLH in children and adolescents: British paediatric and adolescent bone group recommendations.

ABSTRACT: X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is caused by a pathogenic variant in the PHEX gene, which leads to elevated circulating FGF23. High FGF23 causes hypophosphataemia, reduced active vitamin D concentration and clinically manifests as rickets in children and osteomalacia in children and adults. Conventional therapy for XLH includes oral phosphate and active vitamin D analogues but does not specifically treat the underlying pathophysiology of elevated FGF23-induced hypophosphataemia. In addition, adherence to conventional therapy is limited by frequent daily dosing and side effects such as gastrointestinal symptoms, secondary hyperparathyroidism and nephrocalcinosis. Burosumab, a recombinant human IgG1 MAB that binds to and inhibits the activity of FGF23, is administered subcutaneously every 2 weeks. In clinical trials (phase 2 and 3) burosumab was shown to improve phosphate homeostasis that consequently resolves the skeletal/non-skeletal manifestations of XLH. Burosumab was licensed in Europe (February 2018) with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, UK approving use within its marketing authorisation in October 2018. In this publication, the British Paediatric and Adolescent Bone Group (BPABG) reviewed current evidence and provide expert recommendations for care pathway and management of XLH with burosumab.

Project description:BackgroundX-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a rare, inherited, phosphate-wasting disorder that elevates fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), causing renal phosphate-wasting and impaired active vitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) synthesis. Disease characteristics include rickets, osteomalacia, odontomalacia, and short stature. Historically, treatment has been oral phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D supplements. However, these treatments do not correct the primary pathogenic mechanism or treat all symptoms and can be associated with adverse effects. Burosumab is a recombinant human immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody against FGF23, approved for treating XLH in several geographical regions, including Europe and Israel. Burosumab restores normal serum phosphate levels, minimising the clinical consequences of XLH. Safety data on long-term treatment with burosumab are lacking owing to the rarity of XLH. This post-authorisation safety study (PASS) aims to evaluate the safety outcomes in patients aged >1 year.MethodsThe PASS is a 10-year retrospective and prospective cohort study utilising data from the International XLH Registry (NCT03193476), which includes standard diagnostic and monitoring practice data at participating centres. The PASS aims to evaluate frequency and severity of safety outcomes, frequency and outcomes of pregnancies in female patients, and safety outcomes in patients with mild to moderate kidney disease at baseline, in children, adolescents and adults treated with burosumab for XLH. It is expected that there will be at least 400 patients who will be administered burosumab.ResultsData collection started on 24 April 2019. The expected date of the final study report is 31 December 2028, with two interim reports.ConclusionThis PASS will provide data on the long-term safety of burosumab treatment for XLH patients and describe safety outcomes for patients receiving burosumab contrasted with those patients receiving other XLH treatments, to help inform the future management of XLH patients. The PASS will be the largest real-world safety study of burosumab.Registry identificationThe International XLH Registry is registered with clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03193476 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03193476), and the PASS is registered with the European Union electronic Register of Post-Authorisation Studies as EUPAS32190 (http://www.encepp.eu/encepp/viewResource.htm?id=32191).

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.
