Safety and Efficacy of Burosumab in Pediatric Patients With X-Linked Hypophosphatemia: A Phase 3/4 Open-Label Trial.

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.

Project description:Patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), an acquired paraneoplastic condition characterized by osteomalacia due to hypophosphatemia, exhibit a similar clinical picture to those with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia (XLH). The human monoclonal anti-fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) antibody burosumab (KRN23) increases serum phosphate and improves bone turnover, fracture healing, pain, and physical function in XLH patients by inhibiting circulating FGF23; thus, burosumab is expected to be an effective treatment for TIO. We report here an interim analysis of a multicenter, open-label, intraindividual dose-adjustment study of burosumab (0.3 to 2.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks) in Japanese and Korean TIO patients. The primary endpoint was the fasting serum phosphate level at each visit. Key secondary endpoints were changes over time in bone biomarkers, pharmacodynamic markers, bone histomorphometric parameters, motor function, and patient-reported outcomes. Safety was assessed based on treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Thirteen patients received burosumab treatment, of whom 4 underwent bone biopsy. The mean dose after week 112 was approximately 1.0 mg/kg. After the first burosumab administration, mean serum phosphate levels increased and remained above the lower limit of normal and in the normal range from weeks 14 to 112. Bone biomarkers initially increased, reaching maximum values at week 16 or 24, and then gradually decreased. After burosumab treatment, patients were able to walk further (evaluated by the 6-minute walk test), reported decreased pain levels, and showed a tendency toward healing of baseline fractures and pseudofractures. Two patients discontinued, one each due to disease progression and consent withdrawal. Burosumab was generally well tolerated, with no treatment-related TEAEs of grade ≥3 and no treatment-related serious AEs. In conclusion, the interim results of this first study of burosumab to treat TIO patients indicate that this drug has the potential to provide clinical benefit for patients with unresectable tumors. The full study results are eagerly anticipated. © 2020 The Authors.

Project description:BackgroundX-linked hypophosphataemia in children is characterised by elevated serum concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), hypophosphataemia, rickets, lower extremity bowing, and growth impairment. We compared the efficacy and safety of continuing conventional therapy, consisting of oral phosphate and active vitamin D, versus switching to burosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against FGF23, in paediatric X-linked hypophosphataemia.MethodsIn this randomised, active-controlled, open-label, phase 3 trial at 16 clinical sites, we enrolled children with X-linked hypophosphataemia aged 1-12 years. Key eligibility criteria were a total Thacher rickets severity score of at least 2·0, fasting serum phosphorus lower than 0·97 mmol/L (3·0 mg/dL), confirmed PHEX (phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog, X-linked) mutation or variant of unknown significance in the patient or a family member with appropriate X-linked dominant inheritance, and receipt of conventional therapy for at least 6 consecutive months for children younger than 3 years or at least 12 consecutive months for children older than 3 years. Eligible patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either subcutaneous burosumab starting at 0·8 mg/kg every 2 weeks (burosumab group) or conventional therapy prescribed by investigators (conventional therapy group). Both interventions lasted 64 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in rickets severity at week 40, assessed by the Radiographic Global Impression of Change global score. All patients who received at least one dose of treatment were included in the primary and safety analyses. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02915705.FindingsRecruitment took place between Aug 3, 2016, and May 8, 2017. Of 122 patients assessed, 61 were enrolled. Of these, 32 (18 girls, 14 boys) were randomly assigned to continue receiving conventional therapy and 29 (16 girls, 13 boys) to receive burosumab. For the primary endpoint at week 40, patients in the burosumab group had significantly greater improvement in Radiographic Global Impression of Change global score than did patients in the conventional therapy group (least squares mean +1·9 [SE 0·1] with burosumab vs +0·8 [0·1] with conventional therapy; difference 1·1, 95% CI 0·8-1·5; p<0·0001). Treatment-emergent adverse events considered possibly, probably, or definitely related to treatment by the investigator occurred more frequently with burosumab (17 [59%] of 29 patients in the burosumab group vs seven [22%] of 32 patients in the conventional therapy group). Three serious adverse events occurred in each group, all considered unrelated to treatment and resolved.InterpretationSignificantly greater clinical improvements were shown in rickets severity, growth, and biochemistries among children with X-linked hypophosphataemia treated with burosumab compared with those continuing conventional therapy.FundingUltragenyx Pharmaceutical and Kyowa Kirin International.

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) 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.
