Achondroplasia Understanding

Achondroplasia: Overview

Achondroplasia is a rare genetic disorder recognized as the most common primary skeletal dysplasia in humans. This form of dysplasia accounts for greater than 90% of cases of disproportionate short stature, also known as dwarfism. Achondroplasia means “without cartilage formation,” and it is categorized as a physeal (growth plate) dysplasia. Achondroplasia results from a point mutation in the gene coding for the transmembrane portion of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3), which resides on the short arm of chromosome 4. The resultant abnormal chondroid production affects endochondral ossification, resulting in decreased linear bone growth, among other functions. This pathologic process generally spares intramembranous ossification, which takes place in flat bones such as those in the skull (with the exception of the base of the skull), face, and clavicle.

 

The point mutation arises from two possible base substitutions: a transition of c.1138G>A (guanine to adenine substitution is identified in approximately 98% of affected individuals) and a transversion of c.1138G>C (guanine to cytosine, seen in about 1% of affected individuals). These base substitutions cause the normal GGG codon to change to AGG or CGG, causing glycine to be replaced with arginine (p.Gly380Arg) in both situations, and subsequently affecting the transmembrane domain of FGFR3. Both substitutions confer a pathogenic variant of FGFR3, which leads to a gain-of-function mechanism of FGFR3 and subsequent quantitative growth plate and cartilage defects seen in achondroplasia.

 

Management of achondroplasia involves an interprofessional team approach, and anticipatory care is essential. Multiple versions of health supervision and treatment guidelines exist for those with achondroplasia, with most including detailed examinations and specific anticipatory guidance for each separate age group. These guidelines should be followed closely by the pediatrician and/or other health practitioners. Close attention should be paid to the development of obesity in these children and monitored to avoid complications later in life.

Achondroplasia Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Achondroplasia report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I and preclinical. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

 

Achondroplasia Emerging Drugs

 

Infigratinib: QED Therapeutics, Inc.

Genetic variants that cause fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) overactivity can lead to skeletal conditions such as achondroplasia. It is an oral agent under investigation for the potential to improve the irregular bone growth in achondroplasia by directly impacting FGFR3 overactivity, the underlying cause of the condition. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of Achondroplasia. 

 

TYRA-300: Tyra Biosciences, Inc.

TYRA-300 is an FGFR3-selective inhibitor agnostic to the gatekeeper mutation, with less hyperphosphatemia mediated by FGFR1 inhibition than pan-FGFR inhibitors in preclinical models. The company is developing TYRA-300 to address long-term complications and improve quality of life in affected individuals with skeletal dysplasias including achondroplasia. Currently, the drug is in the Phase I stage of development to treat Achondroplasia.
