(Skeletal pain that, in the opinion of the investigator, is attributed solely to causes other than XLH/osteomalacia-for example, back pain or joint pain in the presence of severe osteoarthritis by radiograph in that anatomical location-in the absence of any skeletal pain likely attributed to XLH/osteomalacia should not be considered for eligibility)
5. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min (using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] equation) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) eGFR of 45 to <60 mL/min at Screening with confirmation that the renal insufficiency is not due to nephrocalcinosis

7. Willing to provide access to prior medical records for the collection of biochemical and radiographic data and disease history
8. Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to have additional pregnancy tests during the study. Females considered not to be of childbearing potential include those who have been in menopause for at least two years prior to Screening, or have had tubal ligation at least one year prior to Screening, or have had a total hysterectomy or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.
9. Participants of child-bearing potential or with partners of child-bearing potential who have not undergone a total hysterectomy or a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and are sexually active must consent to use two effective methods of contraception as determined by the site investigator (i.e. oral hormonal contraceptives, patch hormonal contraceptives, vaginal ring, intrauterine device, physical double-barrier methods, surgical hysterectomy, vasectomy, tubal ligation, or true abstinence) from the period following the signing of the informed consent through 12 weeks after last dose of study drug
10. Must, in the opinion of the investigator, be willing and able to complete all aspects of the study, adhere to the study visit schedule and comply with the assessments

11. Prothrombin time/Partial thromboplastin time (PT/PTT) outside the normal range at Screening
12. Evidence of any disease or use of anticoagulant medication (such as warfarin, heparin, direct thrombin inhibitors, or Xa inhibitors (xabans) that, in the opinion of the investigator, cannot be discontinued) that may increase the risk of bleeding during the biopsy procedure
13. Pregnant or breastfeeding at Screening or planning to become pregnant (self or partner) at any time during the study
14. Unable or unwilling to withhold prohibited medications throughout the study
15. Documented dependence on narcotics
16. Use of KRN23, or any other therapeutic monoclonal antibody within 90 days prior to Screening

17. Use of investigational product or investigational medical device within 30 days prior to Screening, or requirement for any investigational agent prior to completion of all scheduled study assessments.

    OR, in Japan, use of any investigational product or investigational medical device within 4 months prior to Screening, or requirement for any investigational agent prior to completion of all scheduled study assessments.

18. Presence or history of any hypersensitivity, allergic or anaphylactic reactions to any monoclonal antibody or KRN23 excipients that, in the judgment of the investigator, places the subject at increased risk for adverse effects
19. History of allergic reaction or adverse reactions to tetracycline or demeclocycline
20. Prior history of positive test for human immunodeficiency virus antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen, and/or hepatitis C antibody
21. History of recurrent infection (other than dental abscesses, which are known to be associated with XLH) or predisposition to infection, or of known immunodeficiency
22. Presence of malignant neoplasm (except basal cell carcinoma)
23. Presence of a concurrent disease or condition that would interfere with study participation or affect safety
24. Presence or history of any condition that, in the view of the investigator, places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study
