Rationale and Approaches to Phosphate and Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 Reduction in CKD.

ABSTRACT: Patients with CKD often progress to ESRD and develop cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet available therapies only modestly improve clinical outcomes. Observational studies report independent associations between elevated serum phosphate and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels and risks of ESRD, CVD, and death. Phosphate excess induces arterial calcification, and although elevated FGF23 helps maintain serum phosphate levels in the normal range in CKD, it may contribute mechanistically to left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Consistent epidemiologic and experimental findings suggest the need to test therapeutic approaches that lower phosphate and FGF23 in CKD. Dietary phosphate absorption is one modifiable determinant of serum phosphate and FGF23 levels. Limited data from pilot studies in patients with CKD stages 3-4 suggest that phosphate binders, low phosphate diets, or vitamin B3 derivatives, such as niacin or nicotinamide, may reduce dietary phosphate absorption and serum phosphate and FGF23 levels. This review summarizes current knowledge regarding the deleterious systemic effects of phosphate and FGF23 excess, identifies questions that must be addressed before advancing to a full-scale clinical outcomes trial, and presents a novel therapeutic approach to lower serum phosphate and FGF23 levels that will be tested in the COMBINE Study: The CKD Optimal Management With BInders and NicotinamidE study.

Project description:Background and objectivesHigh levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 are associated with accelerated progression of CKD. Whether high fibroblast growth factor 23 levels also predict incident CKD is uncertain.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsA prospective case-cohort study was conducted within the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes Trial. The analytic sample consisted of a random subcohort of 590 patients with type 2 diabetes without prevalent CKD at baseline, 124 of whom developed incident CKD during follow-up, and 520 additional patients with incident CKD outside the random subcohort. The association between serum intact fibroblast growth factor 23 and incident CKD, defined as the new onset of eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2) that represented a ≥25% decrease from baseline in an individual with eGFR≥60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2) and no microalbuminuria (<30 mg/g creatinine) at baseline, was tested.ResultsThe mean baseline eGFR in the random subcohort was 90.9±22.7 ml/min per 1.73 m(2). During a median follow-up of 4.7 years, there was a total of 644 patients with incident CKD. The median baseline fibroblast growth factor 23 level was modestly higher among patients with incident CKD versus controls (43.5, interquartile range=34.7-55.1 versus 39.8, interquartile range=31.9-49.5 pg/ml; P<0.001). Higher baseline fibroblast growth factor 23 levels were associated with higher risk of incident CKD in unadjusted and demographics-adjusted models, but the effect was attenuated after additional adjustment for clinical risk factors and baseline eGFR (hazard ratio per SD of natural log fibroblast growth factor 23, 1.09; 95% confidence interval, 0.94 to 1.27), which was the strongest predictor of incident CKD. Consistent with the results of primary analyses, baseline fibroblast growth factor 23 was not associated with eGFR slope.ConclusionsHigher fibroblast growth factor 23 levels are not independently associated with higher risk of incident CKD in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Project description:BackgroundIntravenous iron is commonly used in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD). Modern intravenous iron compounds (e.g. ferric derisomaltose (FDI), ferric carboxymaltose (FCM)) are increasingly utilized with similar efficacy. A differential effect in terms of hypophosphatemia has been noted following administration of FCM, which may be related to fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). This study was designed to examine the comparative effects of FDI and FCM on FGF23, phosphate and other markers of bone turnover.MethodsThe single-center double-blind randomized controlled trial "Iron and Phosphaturia - ExplorIRON-CKD" primarily assessed the effects of FCM and FDI on intact FGF23 and phosphate, whilst also studying the impact on vitamin D, parathyroid hormone and phosphaturia. Bone markers including alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide and carboxy-terminal collagen cross-linked telopeptide were monitored. Non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients (stage 3a-5) with iron deficiency with/without anemia (serum ferritin < 200 µg/L or transferrin saturation = 20% and serum ferritin 200-299 µg/L) were randomized to receive FDI or FCM in a 1:1 ratio. At baseline 1000 mg of intravenous iron was administered followed by 500-1000 mg at 1 month to achieve replenishment. Measurements were performed at baseline, 1-2 days following iron administration, 2 weeks, 1 month (second iron administration), 1-2 days following second administration, 2 months and 3 months following initial infusion.ResultsTwenty-six patients participated in the trial; 14 randomized to FDI and 12 to FCM. Intact FGF23 increased following administration of iron, and the increase was significantly higher with FCM compared to FDI (Baseline to 1-2 days following 1st administration: FDI: 3.0 (IQR: - 15.1 - 13.8) % vs. FCM: 146.1 (IQR: 108.1-203.1) %; p < 0.001 and Baseline to 1-2 days following 2nd administration: FDI: 3.2 (IQR: - 3.5 - 25.4) % vs. FCM: 235.1 (138.5-434.6) %; p = 0.001). Phosphate levels decreased in the FCM group, causing a significant difference versus FDI 2 weeks following administration of the first dose. A significantly greater decrease in 1,25 (OH)2 Vitamin D was noted with FCM. Several markers of bone turnover significantly changed following administration of FCM but not FDI.ConclusionsThe study suggests a differential effect on FGF23 following administration of FCM compared to FDI in non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients, similar to other patient groups. This may lead to changes consistent with hypovitaminosis D and alterations in bone turnover with potential clinical consequences. Further definitive studies are required to understand these differences of intravenous iron compounds.Trial registrationEuropean Union Drug Regulating Authorities Clinical Trials Database (EudraCT) number: 2019-004370-26 ( https://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu/ctr-search/trial/2019-004370-26/GB ) (First date of trial registration: 03/12/2019).
