Abstrakt: | Context: Fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) is a rare bone and endocrine disorder resulting in fractures, pain, and disability. There are no targeted or effective therapies to alter the disease course. Disease arises from somatic gain-of-function variants at the R201 codon in GNAS, replacing arginine by either cysteine or histidine. The relative pathogenicity of these variants is not fully understood. Objective: This work aimed 1) to determine whether the most common GNAS variants (R201C and R201H) are associated with a specific clinical phenotype, and 2) to determine the prevalence of the most common GNAS variants in a large patient cohort. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional analysis measured the correlation between genotype and phenotype characterized by clinical, biochemical, and radiographic data. Results: Sixty-one individuals were genotyped using DNA extracted from tissue or circulating cell-free DNA. Twenty-two patients (36.1%) had the R201C variant, and 39 (63.9%) had the R201H variant. FD skeletal disease burden, hypophosphatemia prevalence, fracture incidence, and ambulation status were similar between the 2 groups. There was no difference in the prevalence of endocrinopathies, ultrasonographic gonadal or thyroid abnormalities, or pancreatic involvement. There was a nonsignificant association of cancer with the R201H variant. Conclusion: There is no clear genotype-phenotype correlation in patients with the most common FD/MAS pathogenic variants. The predominance of the R201H variant observed in our cohort and reported in the literature indicates it is likely responsible for a larger burden of disease in the overall population of patients with FD/MAS, which may have important implications for the future development of targeted therapies.
