- BACKGROUND: Collection of real-world evidence (RWE) is important in achondroplasia. Development of a prospective, shared, international resource that follows the principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reuse of digital assets, and that captures long-term, high-quality data, would improve understanding of the natural history of achondroplasia, quality of life, and related outcomes.METHODS: The Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) Achondroplasia Steering Committee comprises a multidisciplinary team of 17 clinical experts and 3 advocacy organization representatives. The committee undertook an exercise to identify essential data elements for a standardized prospective registry to study the natural history of achondroplasia and related outcomes.RESULTS: A range of RWE on achondroplasia is being collected at EMEA centres. Whereas commonalities exist, the data elements, methods used to collect and store them, and frequency of collection vary. The topics considered most important for collection were auxological measures, sleep studies, quality of life, and neurological manifestations. Data considered essential for a prospective registry were grouped into six categories: demographics; diagnosis and patient measurements; medical issues; investigations and surgical events; medications; and outcomes possibly associated with achondroplasia treatments.CONCLUSIONS: Long-term, high-quality data are needed for this rare, multifaceted condition. Establishing registries that collect predefined data elements across age spans will provide contemporaneous prospective and longitudinal information and will be useful to improve clinical decision-making and management. It should be feasible to collect a minimum dataset with the flexibility to include country-specific criteria and pool data across countries to examine clinical outcomes associated with achondroplasia and different therapeutic approaches.

- A synoptic overview of scientific methods applied in bone and associated research fields across species has yet to be published. Experts from the EU Cost Action GEMSTONE (“GEnomics of MusculoSkeletal Traits translational Network”) Working Group 2 present an overview of the routine techniques as well as clinical and research approaches employed to characterize bone phenotypes in humans and selected animal models (mice and zebrafish) of health and disease. The goal is consolidation of knowledge and a map for future research. This expert paper provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art technologies to investigate bone properties in humans and animals – including their strengths and weaknesses. New research methodologies are outlined and future strategies are discussed to combine phenotypic with rapidly developing –omics data in order to advance musculoskeletal research and move towards “personalised medicine”.

- Background: X-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.Methods: In 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 endopep-tidase 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.Findings: Recruitment 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.Interpretation: Significantly 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.

- PURPOSE: In an open label, randomized, controlled, phase 3 trial in 61 children 1 to 12 years old with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), burosumab improved rickets versus continuing conventional therapy with active vitamin D and phosphate. Here, we conducted an analysis to determine whether skeletal responses differed when switching to burosumab versus continuing higher or lower doses of conventional therapy.METHODS: Conventional therapy dose groups were defined as: higher dose phosphate >40 mg/kg [HPi], lower dose phosphate ≤40 mg/kg [LPi], higher dose alfacalcidol >60 ng/kg or calcitriol >30 ng/kg [HD], and lower dose alfacalcidol ≤60 ng/kg or calcitriol ≤30 ng/kg [LD].RESULTS: At Week 64, the Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) for rickets was higher (better) in children randomized to burosumab versus conventional therapy for all pre-baseline dose groups: HPi (+1.72 versus +0.67), LPi (+2.14 versus +1.08), HD (+1.90 versus +0.94), LD (+2.11 versus +1.06). At Week 64, the RGI-C for rickets was also higher in children randomized to burosumab (+2.06) versus conventional therapy for all on-study dose groups: HPi (+1.03), LPi (+1.05), HD (+1.45), LD (+0.72). Serum alkaline phosphatase also decreased in the burosumab treated patients more than in the conventional therapy group, regardless of on-study phosphate and active vitamin D doses.MAIN CONCLUSIONS: Prior phosphate or active vitamin D doses did not influence treatment response after switching to burosumab among children with XLH and active radiographic rickets. Switching from conventional therapy to burosumab improved rickets and serum alkaline phosphatase more than continuing either higher or lower doses of phosphate or active vitamin D.

- Background: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by mutations in PHEX which increases serum Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) concentrations leading to phosphate wast-ing and osteomalacia. Burosumab is a recombinant fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody which selectively inhibits the activity of FGF23. In clinical trials burosumab demonstrated significant clinical improvements in radiological rickets severity, growth, and biochemistry among XLH children aged 1-12 years compared to those continuing on conventional therapy (Imel 2019). Buro-sumab is licensed by the European Medicines Agency for manage-ment of XLH in children >1 year. Early initiation of treatment in XLH improves height (Makitie 2003) and effective and sustained treatment improves dental and musculoskeletal outcomes. Study BUR-CL207 has been designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacology and efficacy of burosumab in pediatric patients <12 months.Methods: This study is enrolling and will include approxi-mately 20 XLH infants (<12 months old) with a confirmed PHEXmutation. Baseline fasted serum phosphate below the age-adjusted normal range is required for inclusion. Infants receiving conven-tional therapy will discontinue medications >1 week before com-mencing burosumab treatment and for the duration of study. This study comprises three cohorts with a total treatment period of up to 48 weeks. Subjects will be enrolled into a cohort dependent on their age. Cohorts 1 and 2 for subjects aged: ≥6 months to <12 months, and cohort 3 for subjects <6 months. Burosumab starting doses of 0.4 mg/kg (Cohorts 1 and 3) and 0.8 mg/kg (Cohort 2), administered every two weeks, will be studied in each subgroup in a staggered manner with up to 3 subjects per cohort (final num-ber per cohort will depend on age of eligible patients as enrolled). Burosumab dose adjustments will be determined by serum phos-phate levels. A Data Safety Monitoring Board will review data accrued in each cohort.Outcome Measurements: The primary endpoint is the safety of burosumab in pediatric patients <12 months. The secondary endpoints include: PK assessments and change from baseline in serum phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D, the clinical effects of buro-sumab on growth and prevention and/or healing of rickets and skeletal deformities. Exploratory endpoints include presence and appearance of bone and skeletal XLH related abnormalities in pediatric subjects starting treatment <12 months, anthropometric and motor development in pediatric subjects with XLH and char-acterizing the immunogenicity of burosumab following adminis-tration to pediatric subjects with XLH.BUR-CL207 is conducted in Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, UK.

- 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.

- In a randomized open-label phase 3 trial in 62 children (1–12 years) with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) (NCT 02915705), switching from conventional therapy (oral phosphate plus active vitamin D) to burosumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting fibroblast growth factor 23, significantly improved serum phosphate concentration, rickets, lower-extremity deformities, growth, mobility, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at 64 weeks. Children in Europe, USA, Canada, and Australia who completed 64 weeks’ treatment could continue to receive burosumab in the extension period (burosumab continuation group) or cross over from conventional therapy to burosumab (crossover group) to 124 weeks. A Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) questionnaire was used in children aged ≥5 years to measure Pain Interference, Physical Function Mobility, and Fatigue; health-related quality of life was measured using the SF-10 Health Survey for Children (n=35). Here, we describe changes in PROs from baseline to weeks 64 and 88, and report whether the 3-point minimal important difference (MID) was reached for PROMIS domains (Thissen et al., 2016; PMID 26118768). The mean change from baseline exceeded the MID for Pain Interference at weeks 64 and 88 and for Fatigue at week 64 in the burosumab continuation group, and for Pain Interference and Fatigue at week 88 in the crossover group. Similar improvements in SF-10 Physical Health were seen baseline to week 64 in the burosumab continuation group, and week 64 to 88 in the cross-over group. SF-10 Psychosocial Health changed little in either group at the two timepoints.Treatment with burosumab improved Pain Interference and Fatigue beyond the MID in children with XLH who switched from conventional therapy to receive 24 weeks of burosumab. Improvements were also maintained in children who received an additional 24 weeks’ burosumab treatment.

- In a randomized, open-label phase 3 study of 61 children aged 1-12 years old with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) previously treated with conventional therapy, changing to burosumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) for 64 weeks improved the phosphate metabolism, radiographic rickets, and growth compared with conventional therapy. In this open-label extension period (weeks 64-88), 21 children continued burosumab Q2W at the previous dose or crossed over from conventional therapy to burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg Q2W with continued clinical radiographic assessments through week 88. Efficacy endpoints and safety observations were summarized descriptively for both groups (burosumab continuation, n = 6; crossover, n = 15). At week 88 compared with baseline, improvements in the following outcomes were observed in the burosumab continuation and crossover groups, respectively: mean (SD) RGI-C rickets total score (primary outcome), +2.11 (0.27) and +1.89 (0.35); mean (SD) RGI-C lower limb deformity score, +1.61 (0.91) and +0.73 (0.82); and mean (SD) height Z-score + 0.41 (0.50) and +0.08 (0.34). Phosphate metabolism normalized rapidly in the crossover group and persisted in the continuation group. Mean (SD) serum alkaline phosphatase decreased from 169% (43%) of the upper limit of normal (ULN) at baseline to 126% (51%) at week 88 in the continuation group and from 157% (33%) of the ULN at baseline to 111% (23%) at week 88 in the crossover group. During the extension period, treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were reported in all 6 children in the burosumab continuation group and 14/15 children in the crossover group. The AE profiles in the randomized and extension periods were similar, with no new safety signals identified. Improvements from baseline in radiographic rickets continued in the extension period among children with XLH who remained on burosumab. Children who crossed over from conventional therapy to burosumab demonstrated a rapid improvement in phosphate metabolism and improved rickets healing over the ensuing 22 weeks.

- CONTEXT: Younger age at treatment-onset with conventional therapy (Pi/D) is associated with improved growth and skeletal outcomes in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). The impact of age on burosumab efficacy and safety in XLH is unknown.OBJECTIVE: Explore the efficacy and safety of burosumab versus Pi/D in younger (<5 years) and older (5 to 12 years) children with XLH.DESIGN: Post-hoc analysis of 64-week, open-label, randomized controlled study.SETTING: Sixteen academic centers.PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-one children 1-12 years of age with XLH (younger, n=26; older, n=35).INTERVENTIONS: Children received burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg every 2 weeks (younger, n=14; older, n=15) or continued Pi/D individually titrated per recommended guidelines (younger, n=12; older, n=20).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Least squares means difference (LSMD) in Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) rickets total score from baseline to week 64.RESULTS: The LSMD in outcomes through 64 weeks on burosumab versus conventional therapy by age group were as follows: RGI-C rickets total score (younger, +0.90; older, +1.07), total rickets severity score (younger, -0.86; older, -1.44), RGI-C lower limb deformity score (younger, +1.02; older, +0.91), recumbent length or standing height Z-score (younger, +0.20; older, +0.09), and serum alkaline phosphatase (younger, -31.15% of upper normal limit [ULN]; older, -52.11% of ULN). On burosumab, dental abscesses were not reported in younger children but were in 53% of older children.CONCLUSIONS: Burosumab appears to improve outcomes in both younger and older children with XLH, including rickets, lower limb deformities, growth, and alkaline phosphatase, compared with Pi/D.
