Calcium was the priority element in our study due to its bioactive properties. Previous studies proved that phosphonates can possibly be used as bone repair materials. 1 The possible applications are only possible with structures with pores or channels for other molecules to enter.

TA204 gives guidance on denosumab and was issued in October 2010. TA160 and TA161 were to be considered for review after the short clinical guideline on risk assessment has been published. TA204 was to be considered for review at the same time that TA160 and TA161 are considered for review. In August 2012 the clinical guideline on assessing the risk of fragility fractures in people with osteoporosis was published (CG146). In July 2012 Guidance Executive agreed to reschedule the review proposal for the above technology appraisals so that we can explore how treatment intervention thresholds from the technology appraisals can be aligned to the assessment of absolute fracture risk recommended in CG146, and to carry out a feasibility study through NICE’s Decision Support Unit. 1 Review of TA160; Alendronate, etidronate, risedronate, raloxifene and strontium ranelate for the primary prevention of osteoporotic fragility fractures in postmenopausal women, TA161; Alendronate, etidronate, risedronate, raloxifene, strontium ranelate and teriparatide for the secondary prevention of osteoporotic fragility fractures in postmenopausal women, and TA204; Denosumab for the prevention of osteoporotic

  • Phvwp Class Review Bisphosphonates and Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (Alendronic Acid, Clodronic Acid, Etidronic Acid, Ibandronic
    PhVWP Class Review Bisphosphonates and osteonecrosis of the jaw (alendronic acid, clodronic acid, etidronic acid, ibandronic acid, neridronic acid, pamidronic acid, risedronic acid, tiludronic acid, zoledronic acid), SPC wording agreed by the PhVWP in February 2006 Section 4.4 Pamidronic acid and zoledronic acid: “Osteonecrosis of the jaw has been reported in patients with cancer receiving treatment regimens including bisphosphonates. Many of these patients were also receiving chemotherapy and corticosteroids. The majority of reported cases have been associated with dental procedures such as tooth extraction. Many had signs of local infection including osteomyelitis. A dental examination with appropriate preventive dentistry should be considered prior to treatment with bisphosphonates in patients with concomitant risk factors (e.g. cancer, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, corticosteroids, poor oral hygiene). While on treatment, these patients should avoid invasive dental procedures if possible. For patients who develop osteonecrosis of the jaw while on bisphosphonate therapy, dental surgery may exacerbate the condition. For patients requiring dental procedures, there are no data available to suggest whether discontinuation of bisphosphonate treatment reduces the risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw. Clinical judgement of the treating physician should guide the management plan of each patient based on individual benefit/risk assessment.” Remaining bisphosphonates: “Osteonecrosis of the jaw, generally associated with tooth extraction and/or local infection (including osteomyelits) has been reported in patients with cancer receiving treatment regimens including primarily intravenously administered bisphophonates. Many of these patients were also receiving chemotherapy and corticosteroids. Osteonecrosis of the jaw has also been reported in patients with osteoporosis receiving oral bisphophonates.

  • June 2011 Circular No
    7 th June 2011 Circular No. P06/2011 Dear Healthcare Professional, Re: European Medicines Agency finalises review of bisphosphonates and atypical stress fractures Bisphosphonates have been authorised in the EU for hypercalcaemia and the prevention of bone problems in patients with cancer since the early 1990s. They have also been available since the mid 1990s for the treatment of osteoporosis and Paget’s disease of the bone. Bisphosphonates include alendronic acid, clodronic acid, etidronic acid, ibandronic acid, neridronic acid, pamidronic acid, risedronic acid, tiludronic acid and zoledronic acid. They are available in the EU as tablets and as solutions for infusion under various trade names and as generic medicines2. In 2008, the CHMP’s Pharmacovigilance Working Party (PhVWP) noted that alendronic acid was associated with an increased risk of atypical fracture of the femur (thigh bone) that developed with low or no trauma. As a result, a warning was added to the product information of alendronic acid-containing medicines across Europe. The PhVWP also concluded at the time that it was not possible to rule out the possibility that the effect could be a class effect (an effect common to all bisphosphonates), and decided to keep the issue under close review. In April 2010, the PhVWP noted that further data from both the published literature and post- marketing reports were now available that suggested that atypical stress fractures of the femur may be a class effect. The working party concluded that there was a need to conduct a further review to determine if any regulatory action was necessary.

  • Pharmaco-Economic Study for the Prescribing of Prevention and Treatment of Osteoporosis
    Technical Report 2: An analysis of the utilisation and expenditure of medicines dispensed for the prophylaxis and treatment of osteoporosis Technical report to NCAOP/HSE/DOHC By National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics An analysis of the utilisation and expenditure of medicines dispensed for the prophylaxis and treatment of osteoporosis February 2007 National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics Executive Summary 1. The number of prescriptions for the treatment and prophylaxis of osteoporosis has increased from 143,261 to 415,656 on the GMS scheme and from 52,452 to 136,547 on the DP scheme over the time period 2002 to 2005. 2. In 2005 over 60,000 patients received medications for the prophylaxis and treatment of osteoporosis on the GMS scheme with an associated expenditure of €16,093,676. 3. Approximately 80% of all patients who were dispensed drugs for the management of osteoporosis were prescribed either Alendronate (Fosamax once weekly) or Risedronate (Actonel once weekly) respectively. 4. On the DP scheme, over 27,000 patients received medications for the prophylaxis and treatment of osteoporosis in 2005 with an associated expenditure of € 6,028,925. 5. The majority of patients treated with drugs affecting bone structure were over 70 years e.g. 12,224 between 70 and 74yrs and 25,518 over 75yrs. 6. In relation to changes in treatment it was identified from the study that approximately 8% of all patients who are initiated on one treatment for osteoporosis are later switched to another therapy. 7. There was a statistically significant difference between the use of any osteoporosis medication and duration of prednisolone (dose response, chi- square test, p<0.0001).

  • Bisphosphonates for Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
    TITLE: Denosumab and Zoledronic Acid for Patients with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis: A Review of the Clinical Effectiveness, Safety, Cost Effectiveness, and Guidelines DATE: 11 September 2012 CONTEXT AND POLICY ISSUES Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD), deterioration of bone microarchitecture, and a consequent increase in bone fragility and risk of fracture. 1 Osteoporosis is most prevalent in postmenopausal women over 50 as estrogen levels decline. 2,3 The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 10% of 60 year old women, 20% of 70 year old Women, and 40% of 80 year old women worldwide have osteoporosis. 2 In Canada, postmenopausal osteoporosis affects more than 1.5 million women. 4 BMD is determined by the delicate balance of bone resorption (osteoclast activity) and bone formation (osteoblast activity), with osteoporosis occurring when bone resorption exceeds bone formation. 3 There are several therapies available for the prevention and management of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates are highly potent inhibitors of osteoclastic bone resorption and have proven to be effective at reducing vertebral fracture risk. 5 Bisphosphonates such as alendronate and risedronate have been used for treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis for many years and are taken orally with a daily dosage regimen. 5 Zoledronic acid (Aclasta) is a newer bisphosphonate administered intravenously once-yearly. 6 Recent advancements in the field of bone biology have led to the development of a new class of postmenopausal osteoporosis therapy. Denosumab (Prolia) is a human recombinant monoclonal antibody that binds to RANKL, a protein that acts as an essential mediator of osteoclast formation, thereby inhibiting osteoclast formation, function, and survival.
