Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Describe the lived experience of adolescents with XLH who are being treated with burosumab within the 12 weeks prior to reaching the end of skeletal growth.
12 Weeks
Describe the lived experience of adolescents with XLH during the 26 weeks immediately after the end of skeletal growth, overall and according to whether they continue or discontinue burosumab treatment.
26 weeks
Describe within-person changes in the lived experience of adolescents with XLH after reaching end of skeletal growth, in relation to their own pre-end of skeletal growth period.
Up to 52 weeks
Explore the supportive care needs and burden on carers at the time the adolescent with XLH reaches end of skeletal growth.
will be completed between weeks 21 and 25
Interventions
To describe the lived experience of XLH for adolescents who are being treated with burosumab at the end of skeletal growth with a focus on adolescent-reported symptoms, activity duration and intensity, and wider burden, describing change over time for those who continue and discontinue burosumab after the end of skeletal growth.
Eligibility Criteria
The population for this study is adolescents with XLH approaching end of skeletal growth, who are being treated with burosumab for at least 12 months as part of routine clinical care at specialist paediatric centres within the UK, France, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands.
You may qualify if:
- Confirmed diagnosis of XLH (documented diagnosis of XLH in medical records, and evidence of at least one of the following: hypophosphataemia and/or impaired phosphate reabsorption due to elevated FGF23; PHEX mutation).
- Aged 12 to 17 years at start of study.
- Has open growth plates at enrolment and is estimated by their treating clinician to reach end of skeletal growth within the next 26 weeks (based on clinician's judgement in accordance with their normal approach used in routine practice).
- Has been receiving treatment with burosumab for at least study le (52 weeks).
- Provides informed consent to take part in the study (or provides assent, and carer provides consent, where applicable in accordance with specific country regulations).
