Authors' conclusion

This study suggests that burosumab can be an option for patients with XLH and did not significantly increase the incidence of adverse events.

Study context

Population
Patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH)8 articles: 5 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 3 single-arm trials (SATs)
Comparison
Burosumab vs control
Outcome
Serum phosphorus (RCTs)

Pooled result

As reported in the abstract

Difference

0.52 mg/dL

95% CI 0.24–0.80

Burosumabvs Control
difference 0.52 mg/dL (95% CI 0.24–0.80)

Further pooled results

Pooled change in burosumab arms of all trials (RCTs and SATs)

mg/dL

Serum phosphorus level, significant increase
0.78 (95% CI 0.61-0.96 mg/dL)
TmP/GFR, significant increase
0.86 (95% CI 0.60-1.12 mg/dL)

Secondary events

Changes in secondary events also validated the effects of burosumab treatment

Safety

RCTs: safety profile of burosumab not much different from control
SATs: incidence of any treatment emergency adverse event (TEAE) and related TEAE high; most AEs mild to moderate; serious TEAE rate low
