X‐linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), the most common form of hereditary hypophosphatemia, is caused by disrupting variants in the PHEX gene, located on the X chromosome. XLH is inherited in an X‐linked pattern with complete penetrance observed for both males and females. Patients experience lifelong symptoms resulting from chronic hypophosphatemia, including impaired bone mineralization, skeletal deformities, growth retardation, and diminished quality of life. This chronic condition requires life‐long management with disease‐specific therapies, which can improve patient outcomes especially when initiated early in life. To centralize and disseminate PHEX variant information, we have established a new PHEX gene locus‐specific database, PHEX LSDB. As of April 30, 2021, 870 unique PHEX variants, compiled from an older database of PHEX variants, a comprehensive literature search, a sponsored genetic testing program, and XLH clinical trials, are represented in the PHEX LSDB. This resource is publicly available on an interactive, searchable website (https://www.rarediseasegenes.com/), which includes a table of variants and associated data, graphical/tabular outputs of genotype‐phenotype analyses, and an online submission form for reporting new PHEX variants. The database will be updated regularly with new variants submitted on the website, identified in the published literature, or shared from genetic testing programs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
