Vosoritide is a C-type Natriuretic Peptide (CNP) analogue therapy for treatment of achondroplasia. Vosoritide acts on growth plate chondrocytes through the Natriuretic Peptide Receptor-B to stimulate increased endochondral bone growth, leading to increased growth velocity in treated subjects. In Phase II clinical studies, subject blood and urine samples were analyzed to monitor putative bone growth biomarkers including cross-linked C-terminal telopeptides of collagen II (CTxII...
