What This Trial Is About
X-linked hypophosphataemia XLH is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the PHEX gene, leading to low blood phosphate levels and reduced vitamin D. This causes soft bones, rickets, skeletal deformities, growth failure, and bone and dental pain. Conventional treatment with oral phosphate and vitamin D supplements can be burdensome and leave symptoms. Burosumab Crysvita, a monoclonal antibody targeting FGF23, is now the standard treatment for children with XLH, but optimal dosing is still being studied. This retrospective observational study collects data from multiple pediatric metabolic bone centers in England to assess the effectiveness of starting Burosumab at less than 0.8 mg/kg every two weeks compared to the standard 0.8 mg/kg dose. It reviews data from children and young people with XLH who have received at least 12 months of continuous Burosumab treatment under pediatric guidelines. Data include blood markers, growth measurements, treatment timing, imaging results, and adverse effects, all collected from routine health records and anonymized for analysis. Participants will not have direct contact with researchers. Their existing medical records are reviewed to analyze biochemical control of serum phosphate levels, growth changes, dosing variations, and safety over one year of treatment. The study aims to improve understanding of real-world Burosumab dosing to support better, safer, and cost-conscious care for children with XLH.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
