TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to cytoprotectant agents as medicaments for the prevention or reduction of drug-associated side effects, in particular bisphosphonate-associated side effects such as osteonecrosis of the jaw and/or thefemur, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a cytoprotectant agent and a bisphosphonate and to a method for the treatment or prevention of cancer or osteoporosis, or osteodystrophia deformans (Morbus Paget) or of tumor-associated hypercalcemia by the concurrent or subsequent adminstration of a cytoprotectant agent and a bisphosphonate. 2. PRIOR ART Over 190 million oral bisphosphonate prescriptions have been dispensed worldwide and intravenous application is also significant in numbers [1-3]. Bisphosphonates are synthetic analogs of pyrophosphonate that bind to the hydoxyapathite in bone. They act as specific inhibitors of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and are an important class of drugs in oncology and osteoporosis. They inhibit the growth of bone tumors and bone loss by limiting bone remodelling and degradation [1, 3]. Approximately 70% of lung, breast and prostate cancer patients develop bone metastases during the course of the disease [1, 4]. 350.000 patients die from bone metastases annually in the USA alone. Multiple myeloma is a hematological indication for bisphosphonate therapy with an incidence rate around 4/100.000 [4-6]. Osteoporosis is the bisphosphonate indication with the highest incidences around 700/100.000 [7-1 1]. The bisphosphonate drugs are accumulated in the bone matrix [2, 3]. While this is the basis of the effective working mechanism, it also resulted in the main side effect of the therapy known as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ, also called BONJ) [12, 13]. The problem is described for all indication fields. BRONJ results in significant clinical problems and sickness of the patient. This condition mostly occurs after teeth extraction in bisphosphonate-treated patients, mostly with nitrogene-containing bisphosphonates (nBPs) CONFIRMATION COPY and is associated with exposed jaw bone, limited healing of the mucosa, and osteomyelitis. A drug holiday with stop of bisphonate application can be beneficial for the prevention of BRONJ [14, 15]. There is no specific therapy for the prevention of the problem yet this issue is a field of ongoing research [16]. Furthermore, a similar incidence of osteonectrosis of the jaw has been observed upon subcutaneous administration of denosumab [27]. Certain cholesterol eco-norcholstan derivatives are known as cytoprotectant agents for example from the US patent applications US 2006/0217358 Al, US 2008/0275130 Al, US 2009/0186863 Al, US 2009/0203662 A1,US 2009/0203747 Al, US 2009/0312434 Al and US 2010/0099652 Al. Olesoxime (TRO 19622) is a mitochondrial pore modulator in development phase III for the indicationsamyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis and spinal muscular atrophy. Another group of cytoprotectant agents are selected from the group consisting of bisdioxopiperazines, quinolines, aclarubicin and acridines. SHORT SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The problem underlying the present invention was to provide a medicament which alleviates or prevents drug-associated osteonecrosis of the jaws and / or thefemur, in particular the severe side-effects associated with the administration of bisphosphonates in the treatment or prevention of cancer or osteoporosis, in particular BONJ. Surprisingly, it has been shown in in-vitro assays that a concurrent or subsequent administration of cytoprotectant agent with bisphosphonates or denosumab will prevent or at least drastically reduce the severe side-effects associated with the bisphosphonates without influencing its beneficial efficacy against cancer or osteoporosis. Accordingly the invention relates to a cytoprotectant agent as medicament for the prevention or reduction of drug-associated osteonecrosis of the jaws and / or thefemur, preferably the bisphosphonate -associated side-effects, in particular osteonecrosis of the jaw (BONJ) and / orfemur. Furthermore, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition or a kits of parts comprising (a) one or more cytoprotectant agent or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) one or more bisphosphonate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In addition, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition or a kits of parts comprising (a) one or more cytoprotectant agent or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) denosumab. Moreover, the invention relates to a method for the treatment or prevention of cancer, osteoporosis, osteodystrophia deformans or of tumor-associated hypercalcemia in a patient and to a method of inhibiting post-menopausal bone loss in a post-menopausal woman in the treatment or prevention of post-menopausal osteoporosis, which methods comprise concurrently or subsequently administering an effective amount of at least one cytoprotectant agent and an effective amount of (i) at least one one bisphosphonate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or (ii) denosumab to said patient or post-menopausal woman suffering from osteoporosis, osteodystrophia deformans or of tumor-associated hypercalcemia. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 shows the results of a scratch assay in human osteoblasts (example 1). Fig. 2 shows the results of an MTT assay in human osteoblasts (example 2). DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Preferred embodiments of the invention are: (A) A cytoprotectant agent, which is capable of reducing anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. (B) A cytoprotectant agent, which is bisdioxopiperazine, preferably a bis(3,5- dioxopiperazine-l-yl)alkane of formula 2 1 wherein R and R are each independently hydrogen or C \ alkyl, preferably R being methyl and R2 being hydrogen, most preferably selected from the group consisting of dexrazoxane, razoxane and probimane or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. (C) A cytoprotectant agent, which is a cholesterol or seco-norcholestan derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in particular cholesterol or olesoxime (TRO 19622) of formula or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. (D) A pharmaceutical composition, wherein the bisphosphonate is a compound of formula 2 1 2 R R C(P0 3H2)2 2 wherein R1 represent hydrogen, chloro or hydroxy, R2 represents chloro, a Ci - C alkyl group, which is optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of amino, C - C alkylamino, di-(C! - C6 alkyl)-amino, carboxyl, pyridinyl, imidazolyl and imidazopyridinyl, a thiophenyl group, which is optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms, or a C3 - C cycloalkylamino group, or a pharmceutically acceptable salt thereof.

    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.

  • 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.

Plain English Summary Bone turnover is the process of bone breakdown and renewal; under normal circumstances, these two parts of the process are balanced to ensure a constant bone density. If this balance is not maintained, bone structure, mass and strength may be altered. Osteoporosis is a disease in which bone mineral density is reduced as a result of increased bone breakdown and/or decreased bone renewal. Osteoporosis is thought to be responsible for 200,000 fractures every year, with broken wrists, hips and spinal bones the most common. The measurement of products in the blood or urine as a result of either bone breakdown or formation can be used to monitor bone turnover.
