Introduction: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare disease caused by deficient tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase activity. The objective of this analysis was to assess the effectiveness of asfotase alfa enzyme replacement therapy on patient-reported outcomes and quality of life (QoL) in patients with HPP.
Methods: Patients in the Global HPP Registry (data cutoff: July 2024) who received asfotase alfa treatment for ≥6 months after age 2 years were included. Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) was administered to children (2-18 years). Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF) and Short Form-36 version 2 Health Survey (SF-36v2) were administered to adults (≥18 years). Data from patients with baseline and ≥1 follow-up assessments within 2 years were analyzed. Significance of changes was assessed by 95% confidence intervals (calculated assuming normal distribution, α=0. 05).
Results: The study included 136 children and 202 adults. The most common baseline manifestations were dental manifestations among children (61%) and pain among adults (76%). Muscular manifestations were common (children: 49%; adults: 38%). Pain and/or QoL (PedsQoL/SF-36v2) data were available for 26 children and 63 adults, among whom mean scores improved significantly following treatment (Table). No mean scores worsened over time. Injection site reactions were the most common event of interest.

Conclusions: Pain in adults and QoL in children with HPP significantly improved following asfotase alfa treatment.
