Study summary

KRN23 is a fully human immunoglobulin monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to and inhibits the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), leading to an increase in serum phosphorus levels. There are multiple disorders that result in unusually high circulating levels of FGF23, which in turn result in renal phosphate wasting and reduced levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (1,25[OH]2D). Across these disorders the clinical symptoms are similar and often include osteomalacia (and, in children, rickets), muscle weakness, fatigue, bone pain, and fractures. KRN23 has been studied in one of these disorders, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). In single- and repeat-dose clinical studies in subjects with XLH, subcutaneous (SC) administration of KRN23 consistently increased and sustained serum phosphorus levels and tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) without a major impact on urine calcium levels or vitamin D metabolism. Positive results were also observed in a nonclinical pharmacology model of XLH. It is hypothesized that KRN23 may provide clinical benefit in this patient due to the common underlying feature in this patient and in patients with XLH - abnormally elevated FGF23 in the context of low age -adjusted serum phosphorous levels. The primary objective is to study the effect of KRN23 treatment on normalizing age-adjusted fasting serum phosphorous levels in a single pediatric patient with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome associated hypophosphatemic rickets.

Read the detailed description

KRN23 is a fully human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to and inhibits the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), leading to an increase in serum phosphorus levels. There are multiple disorders (each with a unique underlying cause) that result in unusually high circulating levels of FGF23, which in turn result in renal phosphate wasting and reduced (or aberrantly normal in relationship to elevated FGF23) levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (1,25[OH]2D). Across these disorders the clinical symptoms are similar and often include osteomalacia (and, in children, rickets), muscle weakness, fatigue, bone pain, and fractures. KRN23 has been studied in one of these disorders, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). In single- and repeat-dose clinical studies in subjects with XLH, subcutaneous (SC) administration of KRN23 consistently increased and sustained serum phosphorus levels and tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) without a major impact on urine calcium levels or vitamin D metabolism. Positive results were also observed in a nonclinical pharmacology model of XLH. It is hypothesized that KRN23 may provide clinical benefit in this patient due to the common underlying feature in this patient and in patients with XLH - abnormally elevated FGF23 in the context of low age -adjusted serum phosphorous levels.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient has confirmed ENS by physician diagnosis
  • Patient has confirmed FGF23 elevations in the context of low serum phosphorous \< 4.1 mg/dL
  • Patient able to tolerate KRN23 treatment
  • Have a corrected serum calcium level \< 10.8mg/dL
  • Have an >60 ml/min
  • Must be willing in the opinion of the investigator, to comply with study procedures and schedule
  • Provide written by a parent after

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient should not use CRYSVITA with Oral phosphate or active Vitamin D analogs.
  • Patient and investigator should not initiate CRYSVITA if Phosphorus level is within or above normal.
  • CRYSVITA is in patients with severe renal impairment or end stage renal disease because these conditions are associated with abnormal mineral metabolism.
  • The use or enrollment in studies using other therapies including other monoclonal antibodies
  • Subject and their Parent not willing or not able to give written
  • In the Investigators opinion, the subject may not be able to meet all the requirements for study participation
  • Subject has a history of to KRN23 that in the opinion of the investigator, places the subject at an increased risk of adverse effects
  • Subject has a condition that in the opinion of the investigator could present a concern for subject safety or data interpretation.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

GFR and eGFR (kidney filtering)

GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².

Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Crysvita (burosumab-twza) Treatment

    The starting dose will be 0.3 mg/kg to be given every 2 weeks. If required dose may be titrated with increments of 0.1 mg/kg/dose every 4 weeks up to a maximum of dose of 2.0mg/kg (not to exceed 90mg per dose) until phosphorus level is WNL. Patient will receive study drug via SC injection to the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, or buttocks; the injection site will be rotated with each injection. If the dose level exceeds 1.5 mL in volume, the dose should be administered at two injection sites. Duration of treatment is 52 weeks. Subjects that complete treatment through week 52 may have the option to continue KRN23 treatment. If this is warranted based on preliminary efficacy, the current protocol will be amended to allow for an extension.

Interventions

  • KRN23 is a fully human IgG1monoclonal antibody that binds to and inhibits the activity of FGF23, leading to an increase in serum phosphorus levels. It is a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of XLH, Tumor-Induced Osteomalacia (TIO), and the rickets/osteomalacia resulting from Epidermal Nevus Syndrome (ENS). All of these conditions are diseases of bone hypomineralization, caused by urinary phosphate wasting due to elevated levels of FGF23.
