Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose
Alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA) rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms have been demonstrated to be associated with bone mineral density (BMD). However, no study has investigated the association of these two polymorphisms with osteoporosis (OP) susceptibility in Chinese postmenopausal women.Patients and methods
IDUA gene polymorphisms were genotyped in 278 women with OP and 303 healthy controls via polymerase chain reaction and Sanger sequencing.Results
Our data indicated that IDUA rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms increased the risk of OP in homozygous, dominant, and allelic models. We observed lower lumbar spine BMD in younger women with the AA genotype of rs3755955 polymorphism. Finally, mutant genotypes with rs6831280 polymorphism were more sensitive to zoledronic acid treatment, and the treatment effect was significant in terms of BMD levels.Conclusion
In conclusion, IDUA rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms demonstrated susceptibility to OP in Chinese postmenopausal women. IDUA rs6831280 polymorphism caused differences in response to zoledronic acid treatment.

Project description:Denosumab and zoledronic acid (ZOL) are parenteral treatments for patients with osteoporosis.The objective of the study was to compare the effect of transitioning from oral bisphosphonates to denosumab or ZOL on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover.This was an international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial.A total of 643 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis previously treated with oral bisphosphonates participated in the study.Subjects were randomized 1:1 to sc denosumab 60 mg every 6 months plus iv placebo once or ZOL 5 mg iv once plus sc placebo every 6 months for 12 months.Changes in BMD and bone turnover markers were measured.BMD change from baseline at month 12 was significantly greater with denosumab compared with ZOL at the lumbar spine (primary end point; 3.2% vs 1.1%; P < .0001), total hip (1.9% vs 0.6%; P < .0001), femoral neck (1.2% vs -0.1%; P < .0001), and one-third radius (0.6% vs 0.0%; P < .05). The median decrease from baseline was greater with denosumab than ZOL for serum C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen at all time points after day 10 and for serum procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide at month 1 and at all time points after month 3 (all P < .05). Median percentage changes from baseline in serum intact PTH were significantly greater at months 3 and 9 with denosumab compared with ZOL (all P < .05). Adverse events were similar between groups. Three events consistent with the definition of atypical femoral fracture were observed (two denosumab and one ZOL).In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis previously treated with oral bisphosphonates, denosumab was associated with greater BMD increases at all measured skeletal sites and greater inhibition of bone remodeling compared with ZOL.

Project description:IntroductionPost hoc analyses of osteoporosis trials have suggested that alendronate and strontium ranelate may be associated with a reduction in the progression of spinal radiographic osteoarthritis (OA). We performed an analysis on a subgroup of participants in the horizon PFT trial (a 3-year randomized controlled trial (RCT) of yearly zoledronic acid (ZA) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis), to evaluate the effect of ZA on the structural progression of spinal osteophytes (OPh) and disk space narrowing (DN).MethodsPaired lateral spinal X-rays (baseline and 36 months) were selected from the horizon PFT trial records restricted to those with radiographic OA at baseline. The X-rays were analyzed by two readers blinded to the treatment allocation. OPh and DN were scored separately using the Lane atlas (0-3 for increasing severity at each vertebral level) at all evaluable levels from T4-12 and L1-5.ResultsA total of 504 sets of paired radiographs were included in the analysis, 245 in the ZA group and 259 in the placebo group. Overall, the rates of change of OPh and DN scores were low, and they were not statistically different between the groups (change in the whole spine OPh ZA 1.0 ± 1.6, placebo 0.8 ± 1.3, p = 0.1; DN ZA 0.3 ± 1.0, placebo 0.3 ± 0.8, p = 0.7).ConclusionYearly ZA for 3 years was not associated with a slowing of progression of OPh or DN in the thoracolumbar spine in patients with pre-existing radiographic OA.

Project description:BackgroundOsteoporosis (OP) is a complex bone metabolism disorder characterized by the loss of bone minerals and an increased risk of bone fracture. A recent study reported the relationship of the macrophage erythroblast attacher gene (MAEA) with low bone mineral density in postmenopausal Japanese women. Our study aimed to investigate the association of MAEA with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) in Han Chinese individuals.MethodsA total of 968 unrelated postmenopausal Chinese women comprising 484 patients with PMOP and 484 controls were recruited. Four tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that covered the gene region of MAEA were chosen for genotyping. Single SNP and haplotypic association analyses were performed, and analysis of variance was conducted to test the correlation between blood MAEA protein level and genotypes of associated SNPs.ResultsSNP rs6815464 was significantly associated with the risk of PMOP. The C allele of rs6815464 was strongly correlated with the decreased risk of PMOP in our study subjects (OR[95% CI]=0.75[0.63-0.89], P=0.0015). Significant differences in MAEA protein blood levels among genotypes of SNP rs6815464 were identified in both the PMOP (F=6.82, P=0.0012) and control groups (F=11.5, P=0.00001). The C allele was positively associated with decreased MAEA protein levels in blood.ConclusionThis case-control study on Chinese postmenopausal women suggested an association between SNP rs6815464 of MAEA and PMOP. Further analyses showed that genotypes of SNP rs6815464 were also associated with the blood level of MAEA protein.

Project description:Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease are common in older adults. Treatment of osteoporosis reduces the burden of debilitating fractures; however, it is important to understand the benefit versus risk of treatment. This study evaluates the risk of stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic) and myocardial infarction (MI) among postmenopausal women and men initiating osteoporosis treatment with denosumab (receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand [RANKL] inhibitor) or zoledronic acid (bisphosphonate) between October 2010 and June 2019. A retrospective cohort study employing the new user/active comparator design was conducted. Analyses were conducted separately in two national US commercial databases, MarketScan® and Optum® for reproducibility. Inverse probability of treatment and censoring weighting was employed to control for confounding and informative censoring. Cumulative risks at 6-month, 12-month, and 36-month time points were calculated and adjusted risk ratios and differences (with 95% confidence intervals [CIs]) were estimated. In MarketScan® and Optum® databases, 96,611 and 73,127 patients met all study eligibility criteria, respectively. At 36 months, the risk ratio estimates (zoledronic acid referent group) were 1.22 (95% CI, 0.77-1.66) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.63-1.32) for MI and 1.00 (95% CI, 0.61-1.40) and 0.87 (95% CI, 0.56-1.17) for stroke in MarketScan and Optum, respectively. Most of the treatment associations across the other time periods and outcomes also had 95% CIs including the null value. In these large samples of real-world US patients, no increased risk in MI and stroke were identified for up to 36 months of treatment in denosumab users compared with zoledronic acid users. © 2023 Amgen.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Long-term treatment is used in patients with osteoporosis, and bisphosphonates (BPs) are the most commonly prescribed medications. However, in some patients this therapy is not effective, cause different side effects and complications. Unfortunately, at least one year is needed to identify and confirm an ineffectiveness of BPs therapy on bone mineral density (BMD). Among other factors, a response to BPs therapy may also be explained by genetic factors. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of SOST, PTH, FGF2, FDPS, GGPS1, and LRP5 gene variants on the response to treatment with aminobisphosphonates. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Women with postmenopausal osteoporosis were included to this study if they used aminobisphosphonates for at least 12 months. Exclusion criteria were: persistence on BPs therapy less than 80%, bone metabolic diseases, diseases deemed to affect bone metabolism, malignant tumours, using of any medications influencing BMD. The study protocol was approved by the local ethics committee. The BMD at the lumbar spine and femoral neck were measured using dual x-ray absorptiometry (GE Lunar) before and at least 12 months after treatment with BPs. According to BMD change, patients were divided in two groups-responders and non-responders to BPs terapy. Polymorphic variants in SOST, PTH, FGF2, FDPS, GGPS1, and LRP5 genes were determined using PCR analysis with TaqMan probes (Thermo Scientific). RESULTS:In total, 201 women with BPs therapy were included in the study. No statistically significant differences were observed in age, age at menopause, weight, height, BMI and baseline BMD levels between responders (122 subjects) and non-responders (79 subjects). As single markers, the SOST rs1234612 T/T (OR = 2.3; P = 0.02), PTH rs7125774 T/T (OR = 2.8, P = 0.0009), FDPS rs2297480 G/G (OR = 29.3, P = 2.2×10-7), and GGPS1 rs10925503 C/C+C/T (OR = 2.9; P = 0.003) gene variants were over-represented in non-responders group. No significant association between FGF2 rs6854081 and LRP5 rs3736228 gene variants and response to BPs treatment was observed. The carriers of T-T-G-C allelic combination (constructed from rs1234612, rs7125774, rs2297480, and rs10925503) were predisposed to negative response to BPs treatment (OR = 4.9, 95% CI 1.7-14.6, P = 0.005). The C-C-T-C combination was significantly over-represented in responders (OR = 0.1, 95% CI 0.1-0.5, P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS:Our findings highlight the importance of identified single gene variants and their allelic combinations for pharmacogenetics of BPs therapy of osteoporosis. Complex screening of these genetic markers could be used as a new strategy for personalized antiresorptive therapy.

Project description:BackgroundObesity is associated with improved bone mass and microarchitecture in Caucasian individuals, but evidence in obese Asian individuals is lacking.ObjectiveTo analyze the areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and bone microarchitecture in normal-weight, overweight, and obese postmenopausal Chinese women.MethodsA total of 243 postmenopausal women from the Chinese Vertebral Osteoporosis Study (ChiVOS) were included and were divided into three groups (OB, obese group; OW, overweight group; NW, normal weight group) by BMI level. aBMD, trabecular bone score (TBS), and appendicular lean mass (ALM) were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Bone microarchitecture was measured by HR-pQCT at the distal radius and tibia. X-ray was performed to confirm vertebral fractures (VFs). Multiple linear regression was used to evaluate the correlations between bone parameters and ALM after adjusting for confounding variables.ResultsThe prevalence of VFs and clinical fractures were similar among the groups. Participants in the OB group showed a lower level of osteocalcin with comparable levels of other bone turnover markers (BTMs). The aBMD at several skeletal sites was higher in the OB group than in the NW group after adjusting for age (p<0.01 for all comparisons). At the radius, the OB group had a higher Ct.Ar, Tb.vBMD, Tb.BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, and Ct.Th than the NW group after adjusting for covariates (p<0.05 for all). Differences of a similar magnitude were found at the distal tibia. There was a trend of decreasing trend in Tb.Sp, Tb.1/N/SD, and Ct.Po among groups at both sites. However, the bone microarchitecture did not differ between participants with severe obesity (BMI≥35.0kg/m2) and those with 30.0≤BMI<35 kg/m2. Multiple linear regression revealed that the associations between ALM and most of the bone microarchitecture parameters at both sites were much stronger than the association between body weight and bone parameters.ConclusionWe have observed significant improvements in aBMD, bone geometry, and bone microarchitecture in obese postmenopausal Chinese women. Except for a lower level of osteocalcin in the OB group, no significant differences in BTMs were found among the groups. Compared with body weight, ALM may explain greater variance in the improvement of bone microarchitecture parameters.

Project description:There are no published clinical reports comparing ibandronate (IBN) treatment and zoledronic acid (ZOL) treatment in Japanese postmenopausal osteoporotic patients. This investigation therefore compared the efficacy and safety of the drugs on improving bone metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD) in Japanese postmenopausal women with primary osteoporosis. Eighty-two treatment-naïve primary osteoporotic female patients were randomly divided into IBN-treated or ZOL-treated groups. Bone turnover markers and BMD were examined immediately prior to treatment (baseline) and at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 months of therapy. Compared with baseline levels, the values of type 1 procollagen N-terminal propeptide, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), urinary type-I collagen amino-terminal telopeptide (NTX), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b were all significantly decreased at every time point in both groups apart from BAP at 30 months in the ZOL group, urinary NTX at 12 months in the ZOL group and at 24 and 30 months in both groups. Lumbar BMD values were significantly increased at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months in the IBN group and at 6 and 12 months in the ZOL group compared with pre-treatment levels. Hip BMD values were also significantly increased at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months in the IBN group and at 6, 12, and 18 months in the ZOL group compared with baseline values. The percentage changes of hip BMD at 18 and 24 months in the ZOL group were significantly higher than those in the IBN group (both p < 0.05). No remarkable adverse events were noted in either group. In conclusion, both IBN and ZOL significantly and safely improved bone turnover markers and BMD during 30 months of treatment in Japanese osteoporosis patients. The ZOL group tended to exhibit greater gains in BMD as compared with the IBN group, which merits further investigation.

Project description:Growing evidence indicates that the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene is an important candidate gene for influencing the development of osteoporosis. The aim of the study was to evaluate the potential association between genetic variants of VDR gene and bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis in Chinese postmenopausal women. The study included 970 Chinese postmenopausal women at the postmenopausal osteoporosis (482) and healthy controls (488). The BMD of lumbar spine (L(2-4) anterior-posterior view), femoral neck hip, and total hip was evaluated using the Norland XR-46 dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). The genotypes of VDR genetic variants were determined by the created restriction site-PCR (CRS-PCR) and confirmed by DNA sequencing methods. Our data indicated that the VDR p.Glicine (Gly)14 alanine (Ala) and p.histidine (His) 305 glutanine (Gln) genetic variants were statistically associated with adjusted femoral neck hip BMD, adjusted lumbar spine BMD, and adjusted total hip BMD (P values < 0.05). Results from this study suggest that the VDR p.Gly14Ala and p.His305Gln genetic variants are significantly associated with BMD decrease in Chinese postmenopausal women and might be used as molecular markers for assessing the risk of BMD and osteoporosis.

Project description:BackgroundThis study was aimed at estimating the associations between coffee intake and osteoporosis (OP) in Chinese postmenopausal women.MethodsWe conducted a large-scale, community-based, cross-sectional study to investigate the associations by using self-report questionnaire to access frequency of coffee intake. The total of 1817 participants was available to data analysis in this study. Multiple regression models controlling for confounding factors to include frequency of coffee intake variable were performed to investigate the relationships for OP.ResultsPositive correlations between frequency of meat food intake and T-score were reported (β = 0.216, P value < 0.001). Multiple regression analysis indicated that the frequency of meat food intake was significantly associated with OP (P < 0.05 for model 1 and model 2). The postmenopausal women with high frequency of meat food intake had a lower prevalence of OP.ConclusionThe findings indicated that frequency of coffee intake was independently and significantly associated with OP. The prevalence of OP was more frequent in Chinese postmenopausal women not preferring coffee habits.

Project description:Objective:This study aims to estimate the cost-effectiveness of yearly intravenous zoledronic acid treatment versus weekly oral alendronate for postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China. Methods:We used a Markov microsimulation model to compare the cost-effectiveness of zoledronic acid with alendronate in Chinese postmenopausal osteoporotic women with no fracture history at various ages of therapy initiation from health care payer perspective. Results:The incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) for the zoledronic acid versus alendronate were $23,581/QALY at age 65 years, $17,367/QALY at age 70 years, $14,714/QALY at age 75 years, and $12,169/QALY at age 80 years, respectively. In deterministic sensitivity analyses, the study demonstrated that the two most impactful parameters were the annual cost of zoledronic acid and the relative risk of hip fracture with zoledronic acid. In probabilistic sensitivity analyses, the probabilities of zoledronic acid being cost-effective compared with alendronate were 70-100% at a willingness-to-pay of $29,340 per QALY. Conclusions:Among postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China, zoledronic acid therapy is cost-effective at all ages examined from health care payer perspective, compared with weekly oral alendronate. In addition, alendronate treatment is shown to be dominant for patients at ages 65 and 70 with full persistence. This study will help clinicians and policymakers make better decisions about the relative economic value of osteoporosis treatments in China.
