Osteogenesis Imperfecta Understanding and Treatment Algorithm
Osteogenesis Imperfecta Overview, Country-Specific Treatment Guidelines and Diagnosis
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), commonly referred to as brittle bone disease, is a genetic disorder primarily characterized by fragile bones that break easily, often with little or no trauma. This condition stems from abnormalities in the synthesis or processing of type I collagen, a crucial protein for bone strength and structure. The severity of OI varies widely, with at least 19 recognized types, ranging from mild forms that may only cause a few fractures in a lifetime to severe types that can lead to multiple fractures even before birth. Other clinical manifestations include blue sclerae, short stature, hearing loss, and dental issues such as dentinogenesis imperfecta. The condition is inherited in various patterns, predominantly autosomal dominant, and its clinical presentation can significantly impact the quality of life for affected individuals.Diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta typically involves a combination of clinical evaluation, family history assessment, and genetic testing. Healthcare providers look for characteristic signs such as frequent bone fractures, blue sclerae, and other skeletal deformities. Imaging studies like X-rays can reveal bone density and structural abnormalities. Genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis by identifying mutations in the COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes, which are responsible for most cases of OI. The diagnosis may also involve ruling out other conditions that could mimic OI symptoms. Early diagnosis is crucial for managing the condition effectively and preventing complications associated with bone fragility.
Osteogenesis Imperfecta Treatment
Treatment for osteogenesis imperfecta focuses on preventing fractures and managing symptoms, as there is currently no cure for the condition. Bisphosphonates are commonly prescribed to strengthen bones and reduce fracture risk. Other interventions may include physical therapy, orthopedic surgery, and the use of assistive devices to enhance mobility and independence. In severe cases, surgical procedures like rodding may be performed to stabilize long bones and prevent deformities.Osteogenesis Imperfecta Epidemiology
The Osteogenesis Imperfecta epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2024 to 2034. The Osteogenesis Imperfecta epidemiology is segmented with detailed insights into Prevalent Cases, Diagnosed Cases, Gene-specific, Type-specific Cases of Osteogenesis Imperfecta.- In 2023, the prevalent population of OI in the United States was found to be ~40.000 cases which, as per the analyst's estimates, is expected to increase in the forecasted period.
- In the US, there were ~20,000 prevalent cases of COL1A1 gene mutation, ~7,000 cases of COL1A2 gene mutation, and cases of other mutations were ~800 in 2023.
- Germany had the highest prevalence of OI among the EU4 and the UK, accounting for ~25% of cases, followed by the France with ~20%, in 2023.
- In 7MM, According to the analysis, in 2023, Japan's contribution to the total treated cases of OI stood at a modest ~10%.

It also deep dives into the Osteogenesis Imperfecta pivotal clinical trial details, recent and expected market approvals, patent details, the latest news, and recent deals and collaborations.Emerging Drugs
EVENITY (romosozumab): Amgen/UCB
Romosozumab-aqqg is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG2) produced in a mammalian cell line (Chinese hamster ovary) by recombinant DNA technology that binds to and inhibits sclerostin. EVENITY increases bone formation and, to a lesser extent, decreases bone resorption. Animal studies showed that romosozumab-aqqg stimulates new bone formation on trabecular and cortical bone surfaces by stimulating osteoblastic activity, resulting in increases in trabecular and cortical bone mass and improvements in bone structure and strength. It is approved by the FDA for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women at high-risk for fracture.Currently, it is being investigated in Phase III for the treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta in pediatric patients.
Setrusumab (UX143): Ultragenyx Pharmaceuticals/Mereo BioPharma
UX143 is an investigational, fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits sclerostin, a protein that acts on a key bone-signaling pathway and inhibits the activity of bone-forming cells. By selectively binding to and inhibiting sclerostin, UX143 is designed to increase bone formation and density, increase the production of collagen, and increase bone mineral density and strength. Sclerostin inhibition also reduces excessive bone resorption, further improving bone density.Currently, it is being investigated in Phase III for the treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta in pediatric patients.
