31 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The primary goal is to determine if Dipyridamole can improve serum phosphate levels and reduce the need for phosphate supplementation.
A first-in-human study of KK8123 in adults with X-linked hypophosphatemia.
The objectives of this observational study are to characterize XLH disease presentation and progression and to assess long-term effectiveness and safety of burosumab.
Hereditary hypophosphatemia encompasses rare genetic conditions characterized by renal phosphate wasting. Increased circulating levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a key regulator of phosphorus metabolism, are critical to the pathophysiology of these diseases, most notably in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). Increased FGF23 induces hypertrophy and scarring in the heart in part via stimulating the traditional renin-angiotensin system (RAS) pathway, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)/angiotensin (Ang ll), particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease, but the effect of FGF23 on the heart in patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic diseases is unknown. In addition, the relationship between FGF23 and the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7) pathway of the RAS is unknown. The objective of this study is to describe the relationship between FGF23, which causes low phosphorus levels, and components of the RAS in the blood and urine to help the investigators understand why the disease occurs and how to better treat it. Subjects will be identified by querying the Electronic Medical Record according to medical diagnosis. Thirty subjects, 2-24 years of age, will be recruited from the tertiary care Pediatric Endocrinology and Pediatric Nephrology clinics at Brenner Children's Hospital. Inclusion criteria include a confirmed diagnosis of hereditary FGF23-related hypophosphatemia. Clinical data will be obtained from the Electronic Medical Record. Each subject will undergo study assessments at baseline, 6 months and 1 year that include blood work, an echocardiogram, and blood pressure measurements. The primary hypothesis is that subjects with higher Ang-(1-7) levels have lower rates of cardiac hypertrophy and thus are protected against high FGF23 levels. The secondary hypothesis is that subjects with higher Ang-(1-7) levels have lower systolic blood pressure.
The trial was designed to evaluate the incidence of unintended hypophosphatemia (low level of phosphate in the blood) in subjects with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA).

Background: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a disorder that affects bone growth. Affected bone tissue is weakened, and people with FD are prone to deformities, fractures, and other problems. People with FD may also have low blood phosphate levels. This can make bones even weaker. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a study drug (burosumab) in people with FD who have low blood phosphate levels. Eligibility: People aged 1 year or older who have FD and low blood phosphate levels. Design: Participants will visit the NIH 3 times in 48 weeks. Each visit will last 5 to 7 days. Participants will self-inject burosumab under the skin in their belly, upper arm, or thigh. They (or a caregiver) will do this at home 1 or 2 times a month. They will be trained in person on how to inject the drug. Home injections will be guided via telehealth. During NIH visits, participants will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have x-rays of different parts of their body. They will have a radioactive tracer injected into their vein; then they will have a bone scan. They will have tests to assess their strength, walking, and movement. They will complete questionnaires about their pain, mobility, and fatigue levels. Adult participants may have bone biopsies. These will be done under anesthesia with sedation. Small samples of FD-affected bone will be removed for study. Between NIH visits, participants will go to a local laboratory for blood and urine tests. Child participants will have an additional follow-up visit 2 weeks after the final NIH visit.
Children and adults with XLH recruited will be treated with calcitriol alone (without phosphate supplementation) for one year, during which the calcitriol dose will be escalated during the first 3 months of therapy. The investigators hypothesize that treatment of adults and children with XLH alone will improve serum phosphate levels and skeletal mineralization without causing an increase in kidney calcifications. The study will also examine if calcitriol therapy will improve growth in children.
The primary objectives of the study are to: * Establish the safety profile of KRN23 for the treatment of XLH in children between 1 and 4 years old * Determine the PD effects of KRN23 treatment on serum phosphorus and other PD markers that reflect the status of phosphate homeostasis in children between 1 and 4 years old with XLH

Background: * Hypophosphatemia is a condition where a person has low levels of phosphorus in the blood. Low blood phosphorus can cause muscle and bone weakness (such as rickets) and teeth problems. One cause of the condition is having too much fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). FGF23 is a hormone that causes the kidney to get rid of phosphorus in the urine. It can also prevent the body from making vitamin D, which helps the body absorb phosphorus in food. * Many people with low blood phosphorus take high doses of phosphorus and calcium medications. However, one side effect of these drugs is increased blood levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH). The drug cinacalcet can help lower PTH levels, which may decrease the amount of phosphorus lost in the urine and increase the phosphorus levels in the blood. Researchers want to see if cinacalcet can help blood phosphorus and decrease the amount of phosphorus supplements that people need to take. Objectives: - To see if cinacalcet can be a safe and effective treatment for people with low phosphorus conditions due to high FGF23. Eligibility: - Individuals between 18 and 70 years of age who have different forms of hypophosphatemic rickets and tumor-induced hypophosphatemia Design: * Participants will have up to 25 study visits over about 28 weeks. * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. * Up to three more lab visits for blood and urine tests will be required before treatment. Imaging studies of the bones, spine, and kidneys will be performed. * Participants will have a 3-night hospital stay to start treatment. They will take cinacalcet once a day. Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests and imaging studies. * Participants will continue to take cinacalcet once a day for 3 weeks. They will have regular study visits to monitor the treatment. * There will be up to two other overnight hospital stays (1 to 3 nights) to adjust cinacalcet doses. The dose will increase until the maximum dose is reached, or side effects develop. * After the end of the cinacalcet study, participants will have several more followup visits to monitor the effects of treatment.
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of inherited rickets in the United States. It also causes bone disease in adults. XLH is caused by overproduction of a hormone call FGF23, which makes the body waste phosphate. This study is designed to determine if nasal calcitonin, an already approved drug in the US, can lower blood levels of FGF23 and reduce phosphate wasting in patients with XLH. In this study the investigators will: 1. Determine whether nasal calcitonin significantly lowers integrated 24-hour blood levels of FGF23 in patients with XLH. 2. Evaluate whether nasal calcitonin improves serum phosphate levels in XLH. 3. Assess whether nasal calcitonin improves blood levels of the active form of vitamin D and calcium absorption from the intestine. 4. Make sure that nasal calcitonin is safe and well tolerated.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of repeated subcutaneous (SC) injections of KRN23 in adult subjects with X-Linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH).
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of repeated subcutaneous (SC) injections of KRN23 in adult subjects with X-Linked Hypophosphatemia (XLH). A Bone Substudy will evaluate the effects of single-blind KRN23 versus Placebo on bone mineral density and bone quality.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of KRN23 after a single intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) administration in XLH patients.
Determine the association between duration and dose of chronic conventional therapy with Pi and renal (nephrocalcinosis/nephrolithiasis), vascular (endothelial function), and cardiovascular function (echo- cardiography) in patients with hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria (HHRH) and patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH).
A 52 week, open label trial to assess the safety and efficacy of KRN23, an investigational antibody to FGF23, in a single pediatric patient with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome(ENS) and associated hypophosphatemic rickets A 26 weeks extension to original study to monitor patient lab results for her safety.
Patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) often report symptoms of fatigue and weakness particularly after exertion, in addition to their skeletal complaints. In previous trials using KRN23 (same drug as burosumab/Crysvita®), patients report these symptoms improve. The investigators wish to test this hypothesis directly by measuring muscle energy when patients begin treatment with Crysvita® for the first time.
Burosumab (also known as the drug, Crysvita®) 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. This drug is already approved for use in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), but not for Cutaneous Skeletal Hypophosphatemia Syndrome (CSHS). It is hypothesized that burosumab may provide clinical benefit to a patient with CSHS 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 of this study is to evaluate the effect of KRN23 (burosumab) therapy in improving rickets in children with XLH compared with active control (oral phosphate/active vitamin D).
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of paricalcitol, a form of synthetic vitamin D, in lowering parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and reducing disease symptoms in children and adults with X-linked hypophosphatemic (XLH) rickets.
Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is common in people with a kidney transplant. Patients with HPT often have high parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and may have large parathyroid glands in the neck. Patients with HPT can develop bone disease (osteodystrophy). This bone disease can cause bone pain, fractures, and poor formation of red blood cells. Other problems from HPT may include increases in blood levels of calcium (hypercalcemia) and low blood levels of phosphorus (hypophosphatemia). The high calcium levels may cause calcium to deposit in body tissues. Calcium deposits can cause arthritis (joint pain and swelling), muscle inflammation, itching, gangrene (death of soft tissue), heart and lung problems or kidney transplant dysfunction (worsening of kidney transplant function). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of cinacalcet (Sensipar/Mimpara) on high calcium levels in the blood in patients with HPT after a kidney transplant.
Background: People with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) have small tumors that may cause low blood phosphorus, weak muscles, bone pain, and broken bones. The tumors may be so small they are hard to find or impossible to remove. Researchers want to test a drug that may help treat TIO. Objective: To see how the drug BGJ398 affects people with tumor-induced osteomalacia. Eligibility: People ages 18-85 who are in NIH protocol 01-D-0184 and have TIO that cannot be found or easily removed Design: At every study visit, participants will have: * Medical history * Physical exam * Blood and urine tests * Questions about their health and fatigue At the screening visit, participants will also have a heart and eye tests. They may have other tests to find their tumor. The baseline visit will be a 1-week stay in the clinic. Participants will have the regular study tests, plus: * Their first dose of the study drug capsules * Blood and urine collected every 2-4 hours for 24 hours. A thin plastic tube will be inserted in a vein to collect blood. * Heart and kidney ultrasounds * Activities that test strength * 6-minute walk test Participants will take the study drug for six 1-month cycles. In each cycle, participants will: * Take the study drug every day for 4 weeks. * Have 1 visit. Participants will collect their urine for 24 hours and have their blood drawn. Participants will have the regular study tests and repeat some baseline tests. * Have blood and urine tests at their local lab. Participants will have 1 visit at the end of the last cycle and another 3 months later....
The purpose of the study is to gain a better understanding of the effect of iron on fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in the inherited disorder, autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR). ADHR is an inherited disorder in which the body makes too much FGF 23 and causes low blood phosphorus levels and bone problems such as rickets (bowed legs in children) or bone pain and weakness in adults. This study is to test whether or not giving iron helps correct the high FGF23 and there by correcting the phosphate problem.
This study will use a procedure called selective venous catheterization in patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) or oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) to try to locate very small tumors that produce proteins called phosphatonins. Too much phosphatonin in the blood causes the kidneys to allow large amounts of phosphorus to be excreted in the urine, leading to low blood levels of phosphorus and, in turn, to osteomalacia (a condition of soft bones). Osteomalacia can cause bone fractures requiring many surgical procedures that can leave patients in pain. Patients may also feel weak and can lose height from massive bone loss. Selective venous catheterization is a way to measure the amount of phosphatonin in the blood and may be used as a way to locate phosphatonin-producing tumors that cannot be found using standard imaging techniques. Patients with TIO or OOM are screened under NIDR Protocol 01-D-0184 with a medical history, review of medical records and routine physical examination. Other procedures may include blood tests, urine tests, and imaging tests, such as x-rays, bone densitometry, bone scan, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study will include mostly patients whose tumors were not able to be located through imaging procedures, but also a few patients whose tumors were located. All participants, regardless of whether or not their tumor was located, undergo selective venous catheterization. For this procedure, a radiologist inserts a catheter (thin flexible tube) into the body and uses fluoroscopy (a type of x-ray) to guide the tip of the catheter to different places in the body to collect small amounts of blood from the different areas. After the procedure, the patient lies flat for 2 hours and avoids moving his or her leg on the side where the catheter was placed. The blood is analyzed to measure the amount phosphatonin is in each sample, and the amounts are compared to the average amount of phosphatonin in the general blood circulation. If a higher level of phosphatonin is found in one area and the location of the tumor is unknown, the patient undergoes imaging in that area. If a tumor is found and it is in an area where it can be removed surgically, the patient is given the option to have the surgery. If the tumor is not found by imaging done after the first catheterization procedure, the patient has the option to have a second catheterization, taking samples of blood only from the area where the phosphatonin was found to be the highest during the sampling procedure.
