Objectives: In XLH, FGF23-mediated hypophosphatemia leads to defective bone mineralization and rickets. Investigational product KRN23 binds FGF23 and inhibits its activity. The objective of this Phase 2 study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KRN23 in 52 children with XLH (ages 5–12 years, ≤Tanner 2).Methods: Patients were randomized to receive KRN23 biweekly (Q2W) or monthly (Q4W) by SC injection. KRN23 dose was titrated (maximum 2 m...

Objectives: In XLH, musculoskeletal outcomes of current treatment with oral phosphate (Pi)/active vitamin D are suboptimal for many patients. In a Phase 2, open-label study, we tested the hypothesis that KRN23 improves rickets and functional outcomes in XLH children.Methods: Fifty-two children with XLH (ages 5–12 years at baseline) received KRN23 subcutaneously biweekly (Q2W) or monthly (Q4W). At study entry, most participants had received oral Pi/a...

Objective: We evaluated the long-term efficacy of burosumab, a monoclonal antibody against FGF23, in a Phase 2 Study (NCT02163577) in children with XLH.Methods: Fifty-two children with XLH (5-12 years-old, Tanner ≤ 2) were randomized 1:1 to receive subcutaneous burosumab Q2W or Q4W for 64 weeks. Doses were titrated up to 2 mg/kg/dose targeting serum phosphorus levels within 1.1–1.6 mmol/l. All subjects entered the long-term extension at Week 6...

In XLH, high circulating FGF23 causes hypophosphatemia, rickets, and short stature. In our Phase 2 study, 52 XLH children (ages 5-12 years, ≥Tanner 2) were randomized to receive KRN23 subcutaneously biweekly (Q2W) or monthly (Q4W). Serum phosphate (Pi) was measured biweekly. KRN23 dose was titrated (maximum 2 mg/kg) targeting age-appropriate serum Pi concentrations.The first 36 subjects had a mean 6.6 years of standard-of-care treatment before wash...

Objective: We compared the efficacy and safety of burosumab, a monoclonal antibody against FGF23, to conventional therapy [oral phosphate and active vitamin D (Pi/D)] in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH).Methods: In this Phase 3 trial (NCT02915705), 61 children with XLH (1-12 years-old) were randomized 1:1 after a 7-day Pi/D washout to receive burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg SC Q2W or reinitiate Pi/D optimally titrated by investigators.
