Burosumab vs Phosphate/Active Vitamin D in Pediatric X-Linked Hypophosphatemia: A Subgroup Analysis by Dose Level

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Subgroup analysis of a randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

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 ALP more than continuing either higher or lower doses of phosphate or active vitamin D.

RGI-C for rickets by on-study dose group · week 64

RGI-C higher with burosumab vs all on-study dose groups

Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

ALP decreased more with burosumab than conventional therapy, regardless of on-study phosphate and active vitamin D doses
