Complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblast lineage cells of X-linked hypophosphatemia: Analysis of human iPS cell models generated by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation. Bone 2024; 181:117044.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by inactivating variants of the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene. Although the overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is responsible for hypophosphatemia and impaired vitamin D metabolism, the pathogenesis of XLH remains unclear. We herein generated PHEX-knockout (KO) human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by applying CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation to an iPS clone derived from a healthy male, and analyzed PHEX-KO iPS cells with deletions extending from exons 1 to 3 and frameshifts by inducing them to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. We confirmed the increased production of FGF23 in osteoblast lineage cells differentiated from PHEX-KO iPS cells. In vitro mineralization was enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells from PHEX-KO iPS cells than in those from isogenic control iPS cells, which reminded us of high bone mineral density and enthesopathy in patients with XLH. The extracellular level of pyrophosphate (PPi), an inhibitor of mineralization, was elevated, and this increase appeared to be partly due to the reduced activity of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells also showed the increased expression of multiple molecules such as dentine matrix protein 1, osteopontin, RUNX2, FGF receptor 1 and early growth response 1. This gene dysregulation was similar to that in the osteoblasts/osteocytes of Phex-deficient Hyp mice, suggesting that common pathogenic mechanisms are shared between human XLH and Hyp mice. Moreover, we found that the phosphorylation of CREB was markedly enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells, which appeared to be associated with the up-regulation of the parathyroid hormone related protein gene. PHEX deficiency also affected the response of the ALPL gene encoding TNSALP to extracellular Pi. Collectively, these results indicate that complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblasts/osteocytes underlie the pathogenesis of human XLH.

Abstract
Syndromes of inherited fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) excess encompass a wide spectrum that includes X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH), autosomal dominant and recessive forms of rickets as well as various syndromic conditions namely fibrous dysplasia/McCune Albright syndrome, osteoglophonic dysplasia, Jansen's chondrodysplasia and cutaneous skeletal hypophosphataemia syndrome. A careful attention to patient symptomatology, family history and clinical features, supported by appropriate laboratory tests will help in making a diagnosis. A genetic screen may be done to confirm the diagnosis. While phosphate supplements and calcitriol continue to be the cornerstone of treatment, in recent times burosumab, the monoclonal antibody against FGF-23 has been approved for the treatment of children and adults with XLH. While health-related outcomes may be improved by ensuring adherence and compliance to prescribed treatment with a smooth transition to adult care, bony deformities may persist in some, and this would warrant surgical correction.

Anticipated effects of burosumab treatment on long-term clinical sequelae in XLH: expert perspectives. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1211426.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, progressive, genetic disease with multisystem impact that typically begins to manifest in early childhood. Two treatment options exist: oral phosphate in combination with active vitamin D ("conventional therapy") and a fully human monoclonal anti-FGF23 antibody, burosumab. The clinical benefit of conventional therapy in adults is limited, and poor tolerance and complications are common. Burosumab was first approved as a treatment for XLH in 2018 and its disease-modifying benefits in clinical trials in children suggest burosumab treatment could also alter the disease course in adults. Without long-term clinical data on multiple XLH-related sequelae available, the results of an elicitation exercise are reported, in which eight global experts in XLH posited how long-term treatment with burosumab is anticipated to impact the life course of clinical sequelae in adults with XLH. Based on their clinical experiences, the available evidence and their disease understanding, the experts agreed that some long-term benefits of using burosumab are likely in adults with XLH even if they have a misaligned skeleton from childhood. Burosumab treatment is anticipated to reduce the incidence of fractures and halt the progression of clinical sequelae associated with conventional therapy. While the trajectories for established dental abscesses are not expected to improve with burosumab treatment, dental abscess development may be prevented. Starting treatment with burosumab in childhood to increase the likelihood of an aligned skeleton and continuation into and throughout adulthood to maintain euphosphatemia may optimize patient outcomes, although future real-world investigation is required to support this hypothesis.

Abstract
CONTEXT Burosumab was developed as a treatment option for patients with the rare, lifelong, chronically debilitating, genetic bone disease X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). OBJECTIVE Collect additional information on the safety, immunogenicity, and clinical response to long-term administration of burosumab. METHODS UX023-CL203 (NCT02312687) was a Phase 2b, open-label, single-arm, long-term extension study of adult subjects with XLH who participated in KRN23-INT-001 or KRN23-INT-002 studies. The long-term UX023-CL203 study (January 5, 2015 through November 30, 2018) provided data up to 184 weeks. Participants in UX023-CL203 received burosumab based on the last dose in the prior KRN23-INT-001 or KRN23-INT-002 studies (0.3, 0.6, or 1.0 mg/kg given by subcutaneous injection every 4 weeks). At Week 12, burosumab could be titrated upward/downward to achieve fasting serum phosphate levels within the normal range. Primary objectives included long-term safety, the proportion of subjects achieving fasting serum phosphate in the normal range, changes in bone turnover markers, patient-reported outcomes for pain and stiffness, and measures of mobility. RESULTS Fasting serum phosphate levels at the midpoint of the dosing interval (2 weeks postdose, the time of peak effect) were within the normal range in 85% to 100% of subjects. Measures of phosphate metabolism and bone biomarkers generally improved with burosumab therapy, approaching or reaching their respective normal ranges by study end. Improvements in patient-reported outcomes and mobility were sustained throughout the observation period. No new safety findings emerged with longer-term burosumab treatment. CONCLUSION These data support the conclusion that burosumab therapy may be a safe and effective long-term treatment option for adult patients with XLH.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), the most common form of hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets, is caused by inactivating mutations of the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase gene (PHEX). XLH is mainly characterized by short stature, bone deformities and rickets, while in hypophosphatemia, normal or low vitamin D levels and low renal phosphate reabsorption are the principal biochemical aspects. The cause of growth impairment in patients with XLH is not completely understood yet, thus making the study of the growth plate (GP) alterations necessary. New treatment strategies targeting FGF23 have shown promising results in normalizing the growth velocity and improving the skeletal effects of XLH patients. However, further studies are necessary to evaluate how this treatment affects the GP as well as its long-term effects and the impact on adult height.

Abstract
Because of their rarity, diseases characterized by chronic hypophosphatemia can be underrecognized and suboptimally managed, resulting in poor clinical outcomes. Moreover, serum phosphate may not be measured routinely in primary care practice. Authors participated in several working sessions to advance the understanding of phosphate homeostasis and the causes, consequences, and clinical implications of chronic hypophosphatemia. Phosphate levels are regulated from birth to adulthood. Dysregulation of phosphate homeostasis can result in hypophosphatemia, which becomes chronic if phosphate levels cannot be normalized. Chronic hypophosphatemia may be underrecognized as serum phosphate measurement is not always part of routine analysis in the primary care setting and results might be misinterpreted, for instance, due to age-specific differences not being accounted for and circadian variations. Clinical consequences of chronic hypophosphatemia involve disordered endocrine regulation, affect multiple organ systems, and vary depending on patient age and the underlying disorder. Signs and symptoms of chronic hypophosphatemic diseases that manifest during childhood or adolescence persist into adulthood if the disease is inadequately managed, resulting in an accumulation of clinical deficits and a progressive, debilitating impact on quality of life. Early identification and diagnosis of patients with chronic hypophosphatemia is crucial, and clinical management should be started as soon as possible to maximize the likelihood of improving health outcomes. Furthermore, in the absence of a universally accepted description for "chronic hypophosphatemia," a definition is proposed here that aims to raise awareness of these diseases, facilitate diagnosis, and guide optimal phosphate management strategies by improving monitoring and assessment of patient response to treatment. © 2021 The Authors.

Persistent Lower Limb Deformities Despite Amelioration of Rickets in X-Linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH) - A Prospective Observational Study. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:866170.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gait deviations, lower limb pain and joint stiffness represent key symptoms in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH, OMIM 307800), a rare disorder of mineral homeostasis. While the pathomechanism for rickets is well understood, the direct role of PHEX (Phosphate-regulating neutral endopeptidase) deficiency in non-rachitic features including complex deformities, skull and dental affections remains unclear. FGF23-inhibiting antibody treatment can normalize serum phosphate levels and to improve rickets in XLH patients. However, linear growth remains impaired and effects on lower limb deformity and gait are insufficiently studied. AIMS To characterize and evaluate the course of lower limb deformity in a case series of pediatric XLH patients receiving Burosumab therapy. METHODS Comparative assessment of planar radiographs, gait analysis, biochemical and clinical features of pediatric patients before and ≥12 months after initiation of FGF23-inhibiting was performed prospectively. Lower limb maltorsion was quantified by torsional MRI and gait analysis. Standardized deformity analysis of lower limb anteroposterior radiographs was conducted. RESULTS Seven patients (age 9.0 +/-3.6 years) were eligible for this study. All patients received conventional treatment before onset of antibody treatment. Maltorsion of the femur was observed in 8/14 legs using torsional MRI (mean antetorsion 8.79°). Maltorsion of the tibia was observed in 9/14 legs (mean external torsion 2.8°). Gait analysis confirmed MRI findings with femoral external malrotation prior to and one year after onset of Burosumab therapy. Internal foot progression (intoeing gait) remained pathological in all cases (mean 2.2°). Knee rotation was pathologically internal 10/14 legs. Mean mechanical axis deviation (MAD) of 16.1mm prior to Burosumab changed in average by 3.9mm. Three children underwent guided growth procedures within the observation period. Mild postprocedural rebound of frontal axis deviation was observed under Burosumab treatment in one patient. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to investigate lower limb deformity parameters quantitatively in children with XLH receiving Burosumab. One year of Burosumab therapy was associated with persistent maltorsion and frontal axis deviation (varus/valgus) despite improved rickets in this small, prospective uncontrolled study.

Abstract
Objectives To report the impact of burosumab on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and ambulatory function in adults with X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) through 96 weeks. Methods Adults diagnosed with XLH were randomised 1:1 in a double-blinded trial to receive subcutaneous burosumab 1 mg/kg or placebo every 4 weeks for 24 weeks (NCT02526160). Thereafter, all subjects received burosumab every 4 weeks until week 96. PROs were measured using the Western Ontario and the McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF) and Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), and ambulatory function was measured with the 6 min walk test (6MWT). Results Subjects (N=134) were randomised to burosumab (n=68) or placebo (n=66) for 24 weeks. At baseline, subjects experienced pain, stiffness, and impaired physical and ambulatory function. At week 24, subjects receiving burosumab achieved statistically significant improvement in some BPI-SF scores, BFI worst fatigue (average and greatest) and WOMAC stiffness. At week 48, all WOMAC and BPI-SF scores achieved statistically significant improvement, with some WOMAC and BFI scores achieving meaningful and significant change from baseline. At week 96, all WOMAC, BPI-SF and BFI achieved statistically significant improvement, with selected scores in all measures also achieving meaningful change. Improvement in 6MWT distance and percent predicted were statistically significant at all time points from 24 weeks. Conclusions Adults with XLH have substantial burden of disease as assessed by PROs and 6MWT. Burosumab treatment improved phosphate homoeostasis and was associated with a steady and consistent improvement in PROs and ambulatory function. Trial registration number NCT02526160.

Abstract
BACKGROUND X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by lower limb deformity, gait and joint problems, and pain. Hence, quality of life is substantially impaired. This study aimed to assess lower limb deformity, specific radiographic changes, and gait deviations among adolescents and adults with XLH. DESIGN Data on laboratory examination and gait analysis results were analyzed retrospectively. Deformities, osteoarthritis, pseudofractures, and enthesopathies on lower limb radiographs were investigated. Gait analysis findings were compared between the XLH group and the control group comprising healthy adults. PATIENTS AND CONTROLS Radiographic outcomes were assessed retrospectively in 43 patients with XLH (28 female, 15 male). Gait analysis data was available in 29 patients with confirmed XLH and compared to a healthy reference cohort (n=76). RESULTS Patients with XLH had a lower gait quality compared to healthy controls (Gait deviation index GDI 65.9% +/- 16.2). About 48.3% of the study population presented with a greater lateral trunk lean, commonly referred to as waddling gait. A higher BMI and mechanical axis deviation of the lower limbs were associated with lower gait scores and greater lateral trunk lean. Patients with radiologic signs of enthesopathies had a lower GDI. CONCLUSIONS This study showed for the first time that lower limb deformity, BMI, and typical features of XLH such as enthesopathies negatively affected gait quality among adolescents and adults with XLH.
