Monitoring guidance for patients with hypophosphatasia treated with asfotase alfa [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2017
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare, inherited, systemic, metabolic disorder caused by autosomal recessive mutations or a single dominant-negative mutation in the gene encoding tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). The disease is associated with a broad range of signs, symptoms, and complications, including impaired skeletal mineralization ...

Hypophosphatasia: presentation and response to asfotase alfa

Osteoporosis International, 2023
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare bone disease with limited scientific evidence on the tolerability and safety of its novel treatment, Asfotase Alfa (AA). We report 7 HPP patients' heterogenous presentations and the significant improvement in various clinical outcomes attained with AA shedding light on this highly effective and safe therapy ...

Dental outcomes for children receiving asfotase alfa for hypophosphatasia

Bone, 2021
Hypophosphatasia, a genetic disease impeding development of teeth and bones, is associated with premature exfoliation of primary teeth. Hypophosphatasia is caused by mutations in the ALPL gene, which encodes the tissue non-specific form of alkaline phosphatase.

Asfotase Alfa Treatment Improves Survival for Perinatal and Infantile Hypophosphatasia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2016
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inborn error of metabolism that, in its most severe perinatal and infantile forms, results in 50-100% mortality, typically from respiratory complications.Our objective was to better understand the effect of treatment with asfotase alfa, a first-in-class enzyme replacement therapy, on mortality in neonates and infants with ...

Asfotase alfa for infants and young children with hypophosphatasia: 7 year outcomes of a single-arm, open-label, phase 2 extension trial [PDF]

open access: yesLancet Diabetes and Endocrinology,the, 2019
BACKGROUND: Our previous phase 2, open-label study of 11 infants and young children with life-threatening perinatal or infantile hypophosphatasia showed 1 year safety and efficacy of asfotase alfa, an enzyme replacement therapy.

Status Epilepticus due to Asfotase Alfa Interruption in Perinatal Severe Hypophosphatasia

Pediatric Neurology, 2022
Hypophosphatasia (HPP), an inherited, metabolic disorder caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ALPL gene, affects not only bone and tooth mineralization but also central nervous system (CNS) function, resulting in vitamin B6/pyridoxine-responsive seizures. Asfotase alfa treatment mainly improves the skeletal manifestations of HPP.

Asfotase Alfa: A Review in Paediatric-Onset Hypophosphatasia

Drugs, 2016
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare inheritable disease that results from loss-of-function mutations in the ALPL gene encoding tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Therapeutic options for treating the underlying pathophysiology of the disease have been lacking, with the mainstay of treatment being management of symptoms and supportive care ...

Efficacy and safety of asfotase alfa in patients with hypophosphatasia: A systematic review

Bone
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by defective bone mineralization, leading to skeletal abnormalities and systemic complications. Asfotase alfa, a recombinant human tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) enzyme replacement therapy, has emerged as a promising treatment for HPP.
