Long-term Denosumab Use

  • FREEDOM extension (total of 5 years) just reported, with

persistent gains in BMD and fracture risk (1)

  • Transition from alendronate

to 1 year of denosumab appears safe and may have a slightly improved BMD (no fracture data) (2)

  • Likely cost effective, particularly for patients with low compliance to

bisphosphonates (3,4)

  • Main complications:

– skin infection, urinary tract infection; dermatitis/eczema/rash – ONJ reported in cancer patients receiving high doses (120 mg every 4 weeks)

  • f denosumab (5, 6) and was seen in 2 patients in the FREEDOM extension (1)

– Likely occurs at same rate as bisphosphona tes, during clinical trials

Antiresorptives May Have Direct Anti-Tumor Effects

  • Denosumab

– Increased disease free survival in breast cancer (no

  • verall survival data; vs. placebo) (1)

– Prolongs survival in lung cancer vs. zoledronate (2) – Delay metastasis in prostate cancer (3) probably better than zoledronate (4)

  • Zoledronic Acid

– Does not work as an adjuvant for early breast cancer, but does reduce bone metastases (5)

Strontium Ranelate Restrictions in EU Market

  • Was never FDA approved in the US

– Previously approved by the EMA in Europe

  • Often confused with other forms, such as strontium

citrate (available in health food stores)

– Other forms not studied for bone, so unknown efficacy or toxicity

Strontium Ranelate Current Recommendations

  • Reportedly increased incidence of cardiovascular

events in multiple randomized control trials

  • Unclear if this is also seen in real life, as trials may

have had higher proportion of subjects with cardiovascular diase

  • Recommendation to restrict to severe osteoporosis

patients only, and only in patients with low baseline cardiovascular risk (though specifics are still vague)

Vibration Therapy for Osteoporosis?

  • Originally developed for space flight

– Vibrations for 25-30 Hz at 0.3 x g can prevent bone loss

  • deZeptnek, et al. J Rehab Res Dev 2009

– Vibration studies in sheep forelimbs (20 min/day 5 days/week) can increase bone formation in limbs

  • Rubin, et al. Nature 2001

– Seemed potentially useful for osteoporosis

Vibration Therapy is Falling

  • ut of Favor
  • Human trials have been quite variable, with

some suggesting gain but others not

  • Best trial is of 202 postmenopausal women
  • 30 vib/min, 20 min per day, 0.3 x g (low energy)
  • 90 vib/min, 20 min per day, 0.3 x g
  • After 1 year – no difference in BMD
  • Main adverse events: dizziness, fainting due

to passive standing x 20 min.

Vibration Therapy is not FDA Approved

  • Often sold on the internet, and many devices

have higher energies (> 1 x g)

  • Currently, no FDA oversight for devices
  • Being investigated for other situations, such

as spinal cord injury

  • Vibration exposure is regulated in the

workplace as a hazard

Normal Osteoporotic

Hypophosphatasia: treatment by enzyme replacement

  • Deficiency of tissue non-specific alkaline

phosphatase (ALPL/TNSALP)

– Partial or complete loss of function – Hypomineralization, respiratoy compromise – Mild forms may show progressive osteomalacia; poor dentition – Multiple mutations have been identified – Increase pyridoxal 5’ phosphate (PLP), phosphoethanolamine (PLP), and PPi

Whyte, et al. JCEM 2016 Whyte, et al. NEJM 2012

Major Forms of Hypophosphatasia

  • Perinatal – usually autosomal recessive

– Respiratory distress, renal failure, soft bones

  • Adult form – usually partial mutations, heterozygous

– Skeletal manifestations, early dental loss – Low age adjusted alkaline phosphatase

  • Traditional treatments:

– Optimization of calcium and vitamin D – Treatment for craniosynostosis – Experimental treatments with teriparatide to favor mineralization

slide-11
SLIDE 11

11 Asfotase alfa – a new drug for Hypophosphatasia

  • Recombinant TNSAP (ENB-

0040) with a peptide tag to target specifically to bone

– Improved respiratory outcome for invantile form (76% vs 5% from historical controls) – Improved skeletal findings; increased PTH levels, requiring calcium supplements

Whyte, et al. JCEM 2016 Whyte, et al. NEJM 2012

Asfotase Alfa Approval

  • FDA approved for perinatal, infantile,

and juvenile onset hypophosphatasia

  • Also approved in the EU
  • Injections 3-6 times/week
  • Currently being studied for adult HPP

Conclusions

  • Several new medications for osteoporosis and other

bone diseases coming to market soon

  • New anabolic drugs

– Anti Sclerostin Antibodies: Romosozumab and Blosozumab – PTHrP Analog: abaloparatide

  • New anti-resorptive

– Cathepsin K blocker: Ondanacib

  • Novel breakthrough medication for HPP: Asfotase Alfa
  • Continued research on indications and complications
