Purpose: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare bone fragility disorder caused by defects in type 1 collagen biosynthesis. This study investigated the genotype-phenotype correlations and the efficacy of pamidronate therapy in patients with OI in a single academic center.
Methods: This study included 24 patients with OI. A clinical scoring system was used to evaluate disorder severity. COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes were analyzed in 13 patients using Sanger sequencing. Genotype-phenotype correlations and the efficacy of pamidronate therapy were analyzed through a retrospective medical chart review.
Results: Of the 24 patients, 18 (75%) were classified as type I (12 with type Ia and 6 with type Ib), 2 as type III (8.4%), and 4 as type IV (16.7%). Type Ia patients showed relatively higher lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) standard deviation scores (SDS) and lower clinical scores than those with other types. Seven patients with qualitative mutations had lower lumbar BMD-SDS (P=0.015) and higher clinical scores (P=0.008) than 6 patients with quantitative mutations. The annual fracture frequency and lumbar BMD-SDS improved in patients with qualitative mutations after pamidronate treatment.
Conclusions: This study demonstrated that OI patients with qualitative mutations in COL1A1/2 had a more severe phenotype than those with quantitative mutations. Patients with qualitative mutations showed a significant reduction in fracture frequency and an increase in lumbar BMD-SDS after pamidronate treatment. Clinical score and genotype might be helpful for predicting phenotype and response to pamidronate therapy in OI patients.
