Hyperoxaluria: Understanding
Hyperoxaluria: Overview
Hyperoxaluria Kidney stones, or renal calculi, are a common medical issue affecting around 10% of people, with calcium stones being the most prevalent type. Calcium oxalate stones, the most common variety, typically form due to an imbalance between calcium and oxalate levels or a lack of sufficient crystallization inhibitors in the body. Hyperoxaluria, an excess of urinary oxalate, can be primary or secondary and leads to kidney stone formation, with varying degrees of severity and rapidity of onset. While the acute management of renal calculi is well-established, it is crucial to investigate the underlying cause in each patient to improve their quality of life and prevent or delay recurrences and complications. Clinicians should offer 24-hour urine testing and preventive therapy to every nephrolithiasis patient, but often recommend it only to those highly motivated to adhere to long-term preventive treatments.Hyperoxaluria can be categorized into primary and secondary forms based on its etiology. Primary hyperoxaluria results from a genetic defect or absence of specific enzymatic activity, leading to significantly elevated oxalate levels in the body, while secondary hyperoxaluria is more common and can be caused by various factors such as dietary intake or underlying medical conditions.
The most common symptoms of Hyperoxaluria include recurrent kidney stones, blood in the urine, urinary tract infections, and pain when urinating. In severe cases, Hyperoxaluria can lead to kidney failure and the accumulation of oxalate crystals in other organs, causing complications like bone pain, anemia, and nerve damage.
The management of Hyperoxaluria involves a combination of conservative, medical, and surgical measures, along with the treatment of nephrolithiasis. Increasing fluid intake is crucial, with a goal of at least 2 liters of urine output per day to reduce calcium oxalate super saturation. Potassium citrate supplements are used to maintain urinary citrate levels and pH between 6.2 and 6.8, which helps prevent calcium oxalate crystal aggregation. Dietary modifications, such as limiting oxalate-rich foods and maintaining a reasonable calcium intake with supplementation during high-oxalate meals, can be beneficial in secondary Hyperoxaluria. Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) supplementation, up to 500 mg daily in divided doses, has been shown to reduce Hyperoxaluria in about 50% of patients with secondary Hyperoxaluria, with women responding better than men for unknown reasons.

Oxabact: OxThera
Oxalobacter formigenes is an anaerobe, non-pathogenic bacterium which exclusively uses oxalate as the energy source. OxThera has taken this bacterial strain isolated from the human gut and developed a live biotherapeutic product candidate. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase III clinical trial for the treatment of patients with Hyperoxaluria.SYNB8802: Synlogic
SYNB8802 is designed to consume dietary oxalate throughout the GI tract. SYNB8802 has demonstrated proof of concept through positive and clinically significant lowering of urinary oxalate in a Phase Ib study in patients with a history of gastric bypass surgery. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of Hyperoxaluria.Hyperoxaluria: Therapeutic Assessment
