  10. Female patients who have reached menarche must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to have additional pregnancy testing during the study. If sexually active, male and female patients must be willing to use an effective method of contraception for the duration of the study and for 12 weeks after the last dose of IP

KRN23KRN23KRN23 0.8 mg/kg starting dose, administered Q2W by SC injection up to Week 64. Before KRN23 treatment, all patients will receive oral phosphate and vitamin D analogs for 12 weeks of Run-in period.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline (CFB) in mean serum phosphorus level at the end of the dose cycleWeeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 40, 52, and 64
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in rickets at Weeks 40 and 64 as examined by the Radiograph Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) global scoreWeeks 40 and 64

Changes in the severity of rickets and bowing were assessed using a disease specific qualitative RGI-C scoring system. The RGI-C is a 7-point ordinal scale with possible values: +3 = very much better (complete or near complete healing of rickets), +2 = much better (substantial healing of rickets), +1 = minimally better (i.e., minimal healing of rickets), 0 = unchanged, -1 = minimally worse (minimal worsening of rickets), -2 = much worse (moderate worsening of rickets), -3 = very much worse (severe worsening of rickets).

Six-minute walking test (6MWT) results to examine walking ability (total distance; patients ≥5 years at the time of signing the ICF only)Weeks 0, 24, 40 and 64
Six-minute walking test (6MWT) results to examine walking ability (percent of predicted normal; patients ≥5 years at the time of signing the ICF only)Weeks 0, 24, 40 and 64
Change in Rickets Severity Score (RSS) total score at Weeks 40 and 64Weeks 40 and 64

The RSS system is a 10-point radiographic scoring method that was developed to assess the severity of nutritional rickets in the wrists and knees based on the degree of metaphyseal fraying, cupping, lucency, separation, and the proportion of the growth plate affected. Scores are assigned for the unilateral wrist and knee X-rays deemed by the rater to be the more severe of the bilateral images. The maximum total score on the RSS is 10 points and the minimum score is 0, with a total possible score of 4 points for the wrists and 6 points for the knees (the total score is the sum of the wrist and knee score). Higher scores indicate greater rickets severity.

Change in lower extremity skeletal abnormalities, including genu varum and genu valgus, as determined by the RGI-C long leg score at Weeks 40 and 64Weeks 40 and 64

Changes in the severity of lower extremity skeletal abnormalities, including genu varum and genu valgus, were assessed using a disease specific qualitative RGI-C scoring system. The RGI-C is a 7-point ordinal scale with possible values: +3 = very much better (complete or near complete healing), +2 = much better (substantial healing), +1 = minimally better (i.e., minimal healing), 0 = unchanged, -1 = minimally worse (minimal worsening), -2 = much worse (moderate worsening), -3 = very much worse (severe worsening).

Ten-item Short Form Health Survey for Children (SF-10) physical domain scores to examine health-related Quality of LifeWeeks 0, 24, 40 and 64

The SF-10 is a brief, 10-item, guardian-completed assessment designed to measure the physical and psychosocial functioning of children. The physical functioning (PHS) domain includes 5 questions that assess limitations in physical activities because of health problems. The PHS domain score was calculated using norm-based scoring so that 50 is the average score and the standard deviation equals 10. Higher scores are associated with better functioning/quality of life; a positive change from Baseline score indicates an improvement.

Ten-item Short Form Health Survey for Children (SF-10) Psychosocial scores to examine health-related Quality of LifeWeeks 0, 24, 40 and 64

The SF-10 is a brief, 10-item, guardian-completed assessment designed to measure the physical and psychosocial functioning of children. The Psychosocial functioning (PSS) domain includes 5 questions that assess limitations in psychosocial activities because of health problems. The PHS domain score was calculated using norm-based scoring so that 50 is the average score and the standard deviation equals 10. Higher scores are associated with better functioning/quality of life; a positive change from Baseline score indicates an improvement.

Face Pain Scale-Revised (FPS-R) scores to examine health-related Quality of LifeWeeks 0, 24, 40 and 64

The FPS-R is a dimensionless 10 point Likert scale used to assess self-reported pain intensity on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most pain you can imagine). Greater pain scores are indicative of more severe pain.

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) scores to examine health-related Quality of LifeWeeks 0, 24, 40 and 64

The PROMIS was developed by the National Institutes of Health and uses domain-specific measures to assess patient well-being (Broderick et al. 2013), (NIH 2015). It uses a T-score metric in which 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population and 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population. For the Pain Interference Domain, decreases indicate less pain, for the Physical Function Mobility Domain, increases indicate greater mobility and for the Fatigue Domain, decreases indicate less fatigue.
