Filter by:Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is the cornerstone of phosphate / calcium / vitamin D metabolism: it is synthesized mainly by osteocytes and acts as a Phosphating agent, inhibitor of dihydroxyvitamin D, and inhibitor of synthesis and secretion of Parathyroid hormone (PTH) in most tissues. The specific role of FGF23 on bone has yet to be demonstrated. In some diseases such as hypophosphatemic rickets (HR), the direct role of FGF23 on bone has not yet been studied to our knowledge, whereas these genetic hypophosphatemias are secondary to overexpression of FGF23, whether an activating mutation of FGF23 or inhibitory mutations of its inhibitors (Dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein 1 (DMP1) and Phosphate-regulating neutral endopeptidase, X-linked (PHEX)). However, patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) have higher circulating FGF23 levels than healthy controls and these levels are higher in treated patients. Management of XLH consists primarily of correcting the native vitamin D defect by prescribing active vitamin D analogs as well as phosphate supplementation to improve bone mineralization and decrease dental complications, growth, and bone deformities. Recently, a new therapeutic option has been developed for XLH, burosumab, a human monoclonal antibody that binds and inhibits FGF23 activity. The use of burosumab is currently authorized in France in some pediatric patients with severe forms of XLH. Independently of the indirect bone effects of phosphate correction and vitamin D levels, the direct role of burosumab on bone cells has never been studied. The objective of this project is to study the osteoclastic biology of patients with HR compared to control patients, and to evaluate the direct impact of the treatments used in this pathology on human osteoclasts.
Children and adults with XLH recruited will be treated with calcitriol alone (without phosphate supplementation) for one year, during which the calcitriol dose will be escalated during the first 3 months of therapy. The investigators hypothesize that treatment of adults and children with XLH alone will improve serum phosphate levels and skeletal mineralization without causing an increase in kidney calcifications. The study will also examine if calcitriol therapy will improve growth in children.
The objectives of this observational study are to characterize XLH disease presentation and progression and to assess long-term effectiveness and safety of burosumab.
A 52 week, open label trial to assess the safety and efficacy of KRN23, an investigational antibody to FGF23, in a single pediatric patient with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome(ENS) and associated hypophosphatemic rickets A 26 weeks extension to original study to monitor patient lab results for her safety.
The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of a high intake of milk and/or cheese products compared to phosphate tablets in patients with hypophosphatemic rickets when evaluating the S-phosphate levels as a main effect parameter. The study was designed as a randomized, multiple crossover study.
X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is characterized by rickets, disproportionate short stature, impaired renal phosphate reabsorption and vitamin D metabolism. Despite oral phosphate and vitamin D treatment, most children with XLH demonstrate reduced adult height. The main objective of the study is to determine the beneficial effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy on body proportions after 36 month in these patients. Secondary objective is to monitor side effects of the therapy.
