Key Points

  • This report aims to explore the clinical response to lumasiran in a patient with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 on hemodialysis.
  • Case report of a PH1 patient receiving lumasiran treatment
  • Monitoring of oxalate levels and dialysis efficacy
  • Assessment of renal function and related complications
  • The patient showed variable clinical response to lumasiran
  • Challenges in managing oxalate levels were evident due to limited dialysis access
  • Progression to end-stage kidney disease was confirmed despite treatment efforts

Abstract

Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the AGXT gene, leading to excessive hepatic oxalate production and progressive kidney damage. Calcium oxalate accumulation results in nephrocalcinosis, urolithiasis, and systemic oxalosis, especially after renal function declines. Traditional treatments include hyperhydration, citrate, and pyridoxine, which is effective in select genotypes. However, many patients progress to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), particularly in settings with delayed diagnosis.
