Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Purpose: To study the safety and efficacy of asfotase alfa in perinatal/infantile-onset hypophosphatasia (HPP) Design: multinational, open-label Primary outcome: Healing of rickets Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13.
14
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Inclusion criteria: <3 years old Symptoms of HPP occurring before 6 months of age HPP-related skeletal disease Failure to thrive Respiratory compromise from HPP Exclusion criteria Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13 Major coexisting disease Treatable form of rickets Hypocalcemia or hypophosphatemia Vit D<20 ng/ml
15
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Intervention: 11 patients received asfotase alfa at a dose of 1 mg/kg 3 times per week. Dose could be increased to 3 mg/kg if there were: Worsening failure to thrive Deteriorating pulmonary function OR No radiographic evidence of skeletal improvement Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13
16
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Primary outcome: change in skeletal manifestations of HPP i.e rickets Secondary outcome: improvement in respiratory status Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13
17
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Results: Radiographic global impressions of change (RGI-C) score was assessed at baseline, week 24, and week 48 Week 24: 2.0 point increase Week 48: 2.3 point increase (p=0.004) Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13

Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Most common adverse event was injection site reactions Serious adverse events: Infections (50%) Respiratory disorders (30%) Nervous system disorders (20%) Musculoskeletal disorders (40%) Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13
20
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Literature Review Conclusion: Strensiq ® improved skeletal abnormalities and respiratory status in patients with perinatal/infantile-onset HPP Injection site reactions were the most common adverse event although there was no ectopic calcification in this study Whyte MP, et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;366:904-13
21
Strensiq ® - asfotase alfa Summary Strensiq ®, asfotase alfa, is a new novel agent and currently the only treatment available for perinatal-, infant-, and juvenile-onset hypophosphasia Subcutaneous dosing is weight based and either 2 mg/kg 3x per week or 1 mg/kg 6x per week Common adverse events are: injection site reaction, ectopic calcifications, and lipodystrophy Estimated annual cost is 285,000 Eye exams and renal ultrasounds should be monitored throughout therapy to monitor for ectopic calcifications
