The OxalEurope Registry: Advancing Knowledge in Hyperoxaluria

Primary hyperoxaluria is a rare disease with great clinical variability and several unknown clinical aspects. OxalEurope has hosted the world’s largest database for many years, resulting in over ten publications in major journals. Over this time, there has been great progress with new treatments. The mission of the OxalEurope database continues: to comprehensively record all patients in Europe with these diseases and contribute a detailed dataset for future research.

OxalEurope hosts a registry for all hyperoxaluria related disorders.

Registry database approved by the Amsterdam UMC Ethical Committee (March 3 2021 letter W21_106 # 21.122).

More than 1000 patients are currently registered.

11 European participating countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Sweden and Macedonia.

Local IRB approval from each participating country (documents available upon request).

The registry is based on a web-based CRF (Castor) which is compliant with European Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR).

The registry collects diagnostic information, disease-specific key performance and outcome indicators, and treatment related outcomes

Participation is open to all clinical centres worldwide interested in hyperoxaluria.

We encourage all clinicians throughout Europe and beyond to contribute details of patients with hyperoxaluria to the Registry. Click here to find out how to contribute your patient’s data to the OxalEurope database. It’s easy to do and we can help you.

Aims of OxalEurope Registry

Evaluate different therapeutic strategies

Identify risk factors for unfavourable outcomes

Suggest disease modifying factors

Find phenotype-genotype correlations

Identify other genes responsible for PH

The OxalEurope Registry is observational, prospective and pseudonymized. This means it will continue recording information on follow-up and no stop-date has been assigned. We can also add-in new data fields in the future.
