Patient Support and Advocacy

Advancing Treatment for Calcium‑Sensing Receptor Disorders

The Australian patient organisation for non‑surgical genetic hypoparathyroidism and Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 1 (ADH1) caused by CASR gene mutations. Funding breakthrough calcilytic research. For the first time, treating the underlying cause — not just the symptoms.

All donations over $2 are tax‑deductible  |  ACNC Registered  |  DGR Endorsed

370–1,000 Australians Estimated Living with ADH1
41% Present with Severe Symptoms
75% on Standard Therapy Develop Complications

“Living with a CaSR disorder means managing invisible symptoms every day — fatigue, brain fog, muscle cramps — while explaining to doctors why standard calcium supplements aren’t enough. For the first time, there is a drug in late‑stage trials that targets the actual cause. That’s why this organisation exists: to make sure Australian patients aren’t left behind when these treatments reach approval.”
