Denosumab displayed non-linear pharmacokinetics at doses below 60 mg but at higher doses, denosumab exposure increased approximately dose-proportionally in advanced cancer patients with bone metastases. Following a 120 mg, every 4 weeks dosing schedule, similar denosumab pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were observed across tumour types and were independent of concomitant cancer therapies.

In this report, we demonstrate that efficacy, safety and PK profiles were comparable between etanercept 25 mg twice weekly and 50 mg once weekly in patients who had received at least 24 weeks of etanercept 25 mg twice weekly prior to receiving etanercept 50 mg once weekly in the extension study.
