Denosumab increases sublesional bone mass in osteoporotic individuals with recent spinal cord injury

Abstract: Treatment with denosumab increases lumbar and femoral BMD and decreases bone turnover markers in individuals with recent SCI. This drug may be a promising therapeutic option in SCI-related osteoporosis.

“…Until adequately powered, well-designed, randomized control trials have been completed, the safety and efficacy of prescribing ZA shortly after SCI remain questionable. A recent single arm investigation looking at the effectiveness of denosumab (60 mg every 6 months) to ameliorate bone loss in 14 patients with acute SCI found this treatment was highly effective at preventing aBMD loss at the lumbar spine and total hip, but aBMD of the DF and PT was not measured, as such, the efficacy of denosumab at these ROI, and comparison to trials using ZA cannot be made at this time [118]. Given the small size of the cohorts to date and the limitations inherent when performing a bone loss intervention clinical trial shortly after SCI [e.g., corticosteroid administration, individual variation in bone loss after SCI, and limited access to advanced imaging methods (CT and/or MRI)], future randomized control trials are warranted that compare multiple anti-resorptive agents with appropriate imaging modalities to more fully understand the drug with the greatest efficacy to preserve bone mass and architecture at the knee region.…”

“…Although there is evidence suggesting that these drugs mitigate bone loss after SCI, they do not stimulate new bone formation. To date, there have been few therapeutic interventions shown to stimulate new bone formation, increase bone mass, improve bone microarchitecture, or improve bone strength after SCI . Bone is a dynamic organ that modulates the rate of new bone formation in response to varying levels of mechanical strain.…”

(12)(13)(14) Bone is a dynamic organ that modulates the rate of new bone formation in response to varying levels of mechanical strain. Weight-bearing exercises have been shown to increase bone density, cortical thickness, and bone strength in the general population.…”
