Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by tumoral production of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). The hallmark biochemical features include hypophosphatemia due ...to renal phosphate wasting, inappropriately normal or frankly low 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D, and inappropriately normal or elevated FGF23. TIO is caused by typically small, slow growing, benign phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMTs) that are located almost anywhere in the body from the skull to the feet, in soft tissue or bone. The recent identification of fusion genes in a significant subset of PMTs has provided important insights into PMT tumorigenesis. Although management of this disease may seem straightforward, considering that complete resection of the tumor leads to its cure, locating these often-tiny tumors is frequently a challenge. For this purpose, a stepwise, systematic approach is required. It starts with thorough medical history and physical examination, followed by functional imaging, and confirmation of identified lesions by anatomical imaging. If the tumor resection is not possible, medical therapy with phosphate and active vitamin D is indicated. Novel therapeutic approaches include image-guided tumor ablation and medical treatment with the anti-FGF23 antibody burosumab or the pan-FGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, BGJ398/infigratinib. Great progress has been made in the diagnosis and treatment of TIO, and more is likely to come, turning this challenging, debilitating disease into a gratifying cure for patients and their providers.

Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome clinically characterized by bone pain, fractures and muscle weakness. It is caused by tumoral overproduction of fibroblast growth ...factor 23 (FGF23) that acts primarily at the proximal renal tubule, decreasing phosphate reabsorption and 1α-hydroxylation of 25 hydroxyvitamin D, thus producing hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia. Lesions are typically small, benign mesenchymal tumors that may be found in bone or soft tissue, anywhere in the body. In up to 60% of these tumors, a fibronectin-1(FN1) and fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) fusion gene has been identified that may serve as a tumoral driver. The diagnosis is established by the finding of acquired chronic hypophosphatemia due to isolated renal phosphate wasting with concomitant elevated or inappropriately normal blood levels of FGF23 and decreased or inappropriately normal 1,25-OH
-Vitamin D (1,25(OH)
D). Locating the tumor is critical, as complete removal is curative. For this purpose, a step-wise approach is recommended, starting with a thorough medical history and physical examination, followed by functional imaging. Suspicious lesions should be confirmed by anatomical imaging, and if needed, selective venous sampling with measurement of FGF23. If the tumor is not localized, or surgical resection is not possible, medical therapy with phosphate and active vitamin D is usually successful in healing the osteomalacia and reducing symptoms. However, compliance is often poor due to the frequent dosing regimen and side effects. Furthermore, careful monitoring is needed to avoid complications such us secondary/tertiary hyperparathyroidism, hypercalciuria, and nephrocalcinosis. Novel therapeutical approaches are being developed for TIO patients, such as image-guided tumor ablation and medical treatment with the anti-FGF23 monoclonal antibody KRN23 or anti FGFR medications. The case of a patient with TIO is presented to illustrate the importance of adequate and appropriate evaluation of patients with bone pain and hypophosphatemia, as well as an step-wise localization study of patients with suspected TIO.
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that regulates and is regulated by blood levels of phosphate and active vitamin D. Post-translational glycosylation by the enzyme GALNT3 ...and subsequent processing by furin have been demonstrated to be a regulated process that plays a role in regulating FGF23 levels. In physiologic states, FGF23 signaling is mediated by an FGF receptor and the coreceptor, Klotho. Recent work identifying a role for iron/hypoxia pathways in FGF23 physiology and their implications are discussed. Beyond its importance in primary disorders of mineral metabolism, recent work implicates FGF23 in renal disease-associated morbidity, as well as possible roles in cardiovascular disease and skeletal fragility.
Hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC) is a rare and disabling disorder of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) deficiency or resistance. The disorder is manifest by hyperphosphatemia, ...inappropriately increased tubular reabsorption of phosphate and 1,25-dihydroxy-Vitamin D, and ectopic calcifications. HFTC has been associated with autosomal recessive pathogenic variants in: (1) the gene encoding FGF23; (2)
, which encodes a protein responsible for FGF23 glycosylation; and (3)
, the gene encoding KLOTHO, a critical co-receptor for FGF23 signaling. An acquired autoimmune form of hyperphosphatemic tumoral calcinosis has also been reported. Periarticular tumoral calcinosis is the primary cause of disability in HFTC, leading to pain, reduced range-of-motion, and impaired physical function. Inflammatory disease is also prominent, including diaphysitis with cortical hyperostosis. Multiple treatment strategies have attempted to manage blood phosphate, reduce pain and inflammation, and address calcifications and their complications. Unfortunately, efficacy data are limited to case reports and small cohorts, and no clearly effective therapies have been identified. The purpose of this review is to provide a background on pathogenesis and clinical presentation in HFTC, discuss current approaches to clinical management, and outline critical areas of need for future research.
