Objectives: Burosumab is an anti-FGF23 fully human monoclonal antibody, recently approved for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), presenting a novel treatment approach compared to conventional therapy (CT), composed of oral phosphate and active vitamin D. The objective of this study is to perform a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to assess the value of burosumab for the treatment of paediatric patients with XLH in Portugal, in comparison to CT.<p clas...

Objectives: X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a rare inherited form of osteomalacia characterised by low blood phosphate levels which lead to inadequate mineralisation of bone and rickets. Burosumab is an anti-FGF23 fully human monoclonal-antibody, and the first treatment to target the underlying pathophysiology of XLH. Real-world evidence is important in validating the findings of clinical studies. We report relevant real-world biochemical data on children under five years ...
