  • 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.

  • Tissue Engineering Approaches to the Treatment of Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw George Bullock
    Tissue engineering approaches to the treatment of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw George Bullock A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Engineering Department of Materials Science and Engineering March 2019 Abstract Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a disease defined by necrotic jaw bone that has become exposed through the surrounding soft tissue, which affects patients with osteoporosis and bone metastases taking the anti-resorptive bisphosphonate (BP) drugs. Currently this disease is without a specific treatment, in part due to its complex, and not fully understood, pathophysiology. This research used tissue engineering principles to further investigate the effects of BPs on the soft tissue, both in two and three dimensions, and investigated a potential preventative treatment for the disease in vitro. The BPs investigated were pamidronic acid (PA) and zoledronic acid (ZA), two BPs most commonly associated with BRONJ. We explored the effects of PA and ZA on human oral fibroblasts and keratinocytes at clinically relevant concentrations in 2D. Both PA and ZA caused significant reductions to metabolic activity, and further study indicated an increase in apoptosis in fibroblasts, and apoptosis and necrosis in keratinocytes. PA and ZA led to a significant reduction in proliferation, and ZA reduced the adhesion of keratinocytes. However, BPs did not affect cellular migration. A 3D oral mucosa model was used to investigate PA and ZA. PA prevented the stratification of newly formed epithelia and reduced the thickness of healthy epithelia. ZA showed the same effects, but at higher concentrations was also toxic.
