Real-World Evidence of Adherence to Denosumab Therapy and Fracture Risk Associated With Drug Withdrawal: A Cross-sectional Study

Are We Overly Concerned About Rebound Fractures? Real-World Evidence of Adherence to Denosumab Therapy and Fracture Risk Associated With Drug Withdrawal: A Cross-sectional Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 May 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

In the light of current literature data, it is not recommended to discontinue Denosumab therapy without initiating another antiresorptive therapy. It is known that there is a rebound increase in bone resorption markers and a rapid decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) when patients using Denosumab remain untreated for 1 year. The coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic has caused an unprecedented disruption in the management of osteoporosis, as in many chronic diseases. This study aims to determine whether the risk of rebound-associated osteoporotic fracture development is increased in patients who discontinued Denosumab therapy due to any reason but especially due to hesitancy to come to hospitals or lack of access to treatment institutions during the pandemic period as well as to evaluate the factors affecting treatment compliance.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • 3\. Patients receiving monthly Denosumab to prevent bone metastasis.

Other illness

  • 2\. Patients who develop fractures due to cancer, trauma or Paget's disease.

Other

Who the study is looking for

  • 1\. Patients who had received at least two consecutive doses of Denosumab ,with a gap of fewer than 8 months, with the diagnosis of osteoporosis.
  • 2\. Patients who had at least one radiological image before the initiation of Denosumab therapy in which the lumbar and thoracic spine could be visualised
  • 3\. Patients whose BMD and T-score values had been evaluated via DXA scan and FRAX scores had been calculated before the initiation of Denosumab therapy.
