Calcitriol Monotherapy for X-Linked Hypophosphatemia

Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Children and adults with XLH recruited will be treated with calcitriol alone (without phosphate supplementation) for one year, during which the calcitriol dose will be escalated during the first 3 months of therapy. The investigators hypothesize that treatment of adults and children with XLH alone will improve serum phosphate levels and skeletal mineralization without causing an increase in kidney calcifications. The study will also examine if calcitriol therapy will improve growth in children.
