Hyperparathyroidism in a Large Cohort of Chinese Patients With Tumor-induced Osteomalacia

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

HPT is common in patients with TIO. To avoid the occurrence of HPT in patients with TIO, timely diagnosis and tumor resection is necessary and an excessive dose of phosphate supplementation is not suggested before surgery.

Study context

Population
Chinese patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO)
Participants
202 patients

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

HPT prevalence

Hyperparathyroidism (HPT)

91/202, 45.1%

Secondary HPT (SHPT)

84

41.6%

Tertiary HPT (THPT)

7

3.5%

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

THPT treatment

All patients with THPT underwent parathyroidectomy; recurrence
1 patient

Clinical characteristics by HPT status

SHPT vs no HPT: longer disease duration, higher rate of phosphate and calcitriol supplementation, lower serum calcium, lower urine calcium excretion, higher urine phosphate excretion
THPT vs SHPT: even longer disease duration, higher rate of phosphate and calcitriol supplementation

Correlates of PTH

PTH positively correlated with intact FGF23 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, not 25(OH)D
Dose-response relationship between cumulative phosphate dose and PTH (logistic regression, restricted cubic spline)

Risk factors for HPT

Long disease duration and phosphate supplementation independently associated with HPT
  • Multivariate logistic regression
