  • Denosumab Versus Romosozumab for Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Treatment
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Denosumab versus romosozumab for postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment Tomonori Kobayakawa1, Akiko Miyazaki2, Makoto Saito3, Takako Suzuki2,4, Jun Takahashi2 & Yukio Nakamura2* Denosumab and romosozumab, a recently approved new drug, are efective and widely known molecular-targeted drugs for postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment. However, no studies have directly compared their therapeutic efects or safety in postmenopausal osteoporosis. This retrospective observational registry study compared the efcacy of 12-month denosumab or romosozumab treatment in postmenopausal osteoporosis patients. The primary outcome was the change in bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine. Secondary outcomes included BMD changes at the total hip and femoral neck, changes in bone turnover markers, and adverse events. Propensity score matching was employed to assemble patient groups with similar baseline characteristics. Sixty-nine patients each received either denosumab or romosozumab for 12 months. The mean 12-month percentage change from baseline in lumbar spine BMD was 7.2% in the denosumab group and 12.5% in the romosozumab group, indicating a signifcant diference between the groups. The percentage changes in BMD at both the total hip and femoral neck were also signifcantly higher at 12 months in the romosozumab group than in the denosumab group. In denosumab patients, bone formation and bone resorption markers were signifcantly decreased at 6 and 12 months from baseline. In the romosozumab group, the bone formation marker was signifcantly increased at 6 months and then returned to baseline, while the bone resorption marker was signifcantly decreased at both time points. Adverse events were few and predominantly minor in both groups, with no remarkable diference in the incidence of new vertebral fractures.

  • Increased Bone Mineral Density for 1 Year of Romosozumab, Vs Placebo, Followed by 2 Years of Denosumab in the Japanese Subgroup
    Archives of Osteoporosis (2019) 14:59 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11657-019-0608-z ORIGINAL ARTICLE Increased bone mineral density for 1 year of romosozumab, vs placebo, followed by 2 years of denosumab in the Japanese subgroup of the pivotal FRAME trial and extension Akimitsu Miyauchi1 & Rajani V. Dinavahi2 & Daria B. Crittenden2 & Wenjing Yang2 & Judy C. Maddox2 & Etsuro Hamaya3 & Yoichi Nakamura3 & Cesar Libanati4 & Andreas Grauer2 & Junichiro Shimauchi3 Received: 1 March 2019 /Accepted: 18 May 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Summary Romosozumab, which binds sclerostin, rebuilds the skeletal foundation before transitioning to antiresorptive treat- ment. This subgroup analysis of an international, randomized, double-blind study in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis showed efficacy and safety outcomes for romosozumab followed by denosumab in Japanese women were generally consistent with those for the overall population. Purpose In the international, randomized, double-blind, phase 3 FRActure study, in postmenopausal woMen with ostEoporosis (FRAME; NCT01575834), romosozumab followed by denosumab significantly improved bone mineral density (BMD) and reduced fracture risk. This report evaluates Japanese women in FRAME. Methods Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (T-score − 3.5 to − 2.5 at total hip or femoral neck) received romosozumab 210 mg or placebo subcutaneously monthly for 12 months, then each group received denosumab 60 mg subcutaneously every 6 months for 24 months. The key endpoint for Japanese women was BMD change. Other endpoints included new vertebral, clinical, and nonvertebral fracture; the subgroup analysis did not have adequate power to demonstrate statistically significant reductions. Results Of 7180 enrolled subjects, 492 (6.9%) were Japanese (247 romosozumab, 245 placebo).

  • Immunfarmakológia Immunfarmakológia
    Gergely: Immunfarmakológia Immunfarmakológia Prof Gergely Péter Az immunpatológiai betegségek döntő többsége gyulladásos, és ennek következtében általában szövetpusztulással járó betegség, melyben – jelenleg – a terápia alapvetően a gyulladás csökkentésére és/vagy megszűntetésére irányul. Vannak kizárólag gyulladásgátló gyógyszereink és vannak olyanok, amelyek az immunreakció(k) bénításával (=immunszuppresszió révén) vagy emellett vezetnek a gyulladás mérsékléséhez. Mind szerkezetileg, mind hatástanilag igen sokféle csoportba oszthatók, az alábbi felosztás elsősorban didaktikus célokat szolgál. 1. Nem-szteroid gyulladásgátlók (‘nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs’ NSAID) 2. Kortikoszteroidok 3. Allergia-elleni szerek (antiallergikumok) 4. Sejtoszlás-gátlók (citosztatikumok) 5. Nem citosztatikus hatású immunszuppresszív szerek 6. Egyéb gyulladásgátlók és immunmoduláns szerek 7. Biológiai terápia 1. Nem-szteroid gyulladásgátlók (NSAID) Ezeket a vegyületeket, melyek őse a szalicilsav (jelenleg, mint acetilszalicilsav ‘aszpirin’ használatos), igen kiterjedten alkalmazzák a reumatológiában, az onkológiában és az orvostudomány szinte minden ágában, ahol fájdalom- és lázcsillapításra van szükség. Egyes felmérések szerint a betegek egy ötöde szed valamilyen NSAID készítményt. Szerkezetük alapján a készítményeket több csoportba sorolhatjuk: szalicilátok (pl. acetilszalicilsav) pyrazolidinek (pl. fenilbutazon) ecetsav származékok (pl. indometacin) fenoxiecetsav származékok (pl. diclofenac, aceclofenac)) oxicamok (pl. piroxicam, meloxicam) propionsav
