Filter by:An observational, prospective, mixed-methods study involving the integration of quantitative and qualitative data exploring the lived experience of burosumab-treated adolescents with XLH at the end of skeletal growth.
In this prospective longitudinal cohort study we studied the efficacy and safety of burosumab in real-clinical practice for <13- and >13-years old children affected with X-linked hypophosphatemia. 57 children with XLH were switched from conventional treatment to burosumab. After 12 months we assessed the efficacy and safety of treatment with burosumab on the whole cohort and separately on the cohort of >13-years old adolescents.
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic skeletal disease where increased phosphate wasting in the kidney leads to hypophosphatemia and prevents normal mineralization of bone and dentin, with osteomalacia as a principal manifestation. In previous works, the investigators have shown that adults with XLH present with more frequent and severe periodontitis than in the general population, and that vitamin D and phosphate supplementation improves their periodontal health, as it does for the osteomalacia. Their medical records also reveal that early implant failure is dramatically increased in these patients, when no supplementation is implemented, and standard surgical protocols followed. In contrast, the investigator's preliminary data showed that successful osseointegration was achieved with supplementation prior and after implant placement and extended healing time. Here, the investigators propose to assess the current recommendations for implant therapy in XLH patients, with 24 implants placed. The current recommendations consist of: 1) supplementation with vitamin D and phosphate for 3 months prior to implant placement and 6 months after; 2) implant healing time extended to 6 months. If osseointegration is achieved, prosthesis will be fabricated. Radiographic and clinical examination at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after placement of the definitive restoration will evaluate the implant osseointegration, crestal bone level and peri-implant tissues health.
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of heritable rickets. Current treatments include active vitamin D metabolites (e.g. calcitriol) and phosphate salts. There is no consistent weight-based dosing of calcitriol and phosphate now. The primary objective of this study is to establish the efficacy of different dose of calcitriol combined with neutral phosphate in children with XLH.
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.
