First‐In‐Human Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of DS‐6016a After Single Subcutaneous Injection in Healthy Japanese Adults

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare, progressive autosomal dominant genetic disease caused by an activin receptor‐like kinase 2 (ALK2) mutation with a need for effective prophylactic therapies. This single‐center, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of DS‐6016a, a novel ...

Activin-dependent signaling in fibro/adipogenic progenitors causes fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva

Nature Communications, 2018
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a severe disorder characterized by heterotopic ossification, and is caused by mutations in ACVR1. Here, the authors show that expression of mutant ACVR1 in fibro/adipogenic progenitors recapitulates disease ...

Surrogate Endpoints in Regulatory Decision‐Making

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT To support approval, FDA requires substantial evidence of effectiveness that demonstrates a drug improves meaningful clinical outcomes as measured by how a patient feels, functions, or survives. Effectiveness is measured directly (e.g., by patient‐reported outcome or other clinical outcome assessment) or indirectly (i.e., by use of a surrogate

A Retinoid Antagonist Attenuates Bone Growth Inhibition Caused by Growth Plate Injury in Mice

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 43, Issue 10, Page 1724-1735, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Growth plate injury, which may trigger growth plate fusion or arrest, is a common occurrence in pediatric orthopaedics that can lead to angulation of the limb and limb length discrepancy. Growth plate injuries are currently treated palliatively, with surgical intervention when severe limb length discrepancy or angulation is found during follow‐

Diagnosis of Pediatric Myositis Ossificans Based on Cytomorphology and Molecular Analysis From FNAB Sample: A Case Report

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page E138-E143, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐

Post‐COVID‐19 Exacerbation of a Stable Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare, benign fibro‐osseous lesion characterized by replacement of normal bone with extensive fibrous stroma due to abnormalities in osteoblast differentiation. After puberty and during adulthood, FD lesions usually become quiescent. However, some cases show signs of regrowth and reactivation.

Genetic Testing Utilization in the U.S. Registry for Childhood Interstitial and Diffuse Lung Diseases

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 60, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Childhood interstitial and diffuse lung diseases (chILD) comprise a diverse group of rare disorders. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial for treatment, prognosis, and estimating recurrence risk. The objective of this study was to assess the utilization of genetic testing for subjects enrolled in the United States National ...
