Additionally, new therapeutic options could be achieved through increased awareness, not only in the field of pediatrics but also in prenatal and obstetric specialties. Presenting new therapeutic options might influence families in their decision of whether or not to terminate a pregnancy with a child with a skeletal disease.

Journal: Healthier bones and less recurrence with denosumab. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 4, 2019 Bone scintigraphy data acquired during treatment with radium-223 should be interpreted with caution, and treatment should not be changed according to increase in number of lesions on bone scintigraphy alone after 3 cycles of radium-223.

Clinical, Journal: Comparison of the Effects of Denosumab and Alendronate on Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes in Osteoporotic Patients. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 3, 2019 Denosumab was associated with increased risk of renal function decline in male patients (AHR, 1.78; p = 0.0132), patients with renal insufficiency (AHR, 1.5; p = 0.0132), and patients with acute kidney injury during the study period (AHR, 1.53; p = 0.0154). Conclusively, denosumab may exert cardiovascular benefits in patients with good adherence but may have renal disadvantages in certain conditions and thus must be used with caution.

Review, Journal: Management of bone health in solid tumours: From bisphosphonates to a monoclonal antibody. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 28, 2019 In summary, introduction of ZA and denosumab has protected patients with bone metastasis from serious bone complications and improved their quality of life. Ongoing research will hopefully guide the optimal use of these agents to help maintain bone health in patients with solid tumours.

Journal: Bone and calcium metabolism associated with malignancy. Malignancy-associated hypercalcemia. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 23, 2019 MAH can be divided into two categories:humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy(HHM)caused by a systemic soluble factor secreted by the tumor;and local osteolytic hypercalcemia(LOH)in which tumor cells in situ enhance bone resorption. The standard treatment of MAH is intense hydration along with antiresorptive medications such as calcitonin, bisphosphonate and denosumab.

Clinical, Review, Journal: Current Understanding of Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Management of Atypical Femur Fractures. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 22, 2019 ...AFFs are primarily associated with prolonged bisphosphonate (BP) exposure, but have also been reported in unexposed patients and those receiving denosumab for osteoporosis and metastatic bone disease...Teriparatide may advance AFF healing but few data support its efficacy. Greater understanding of biological and genetic predisposition to AFF may allow characterization of individual risk prior to initiating osteoporosis therapy and help allay fear in those at low risk for this complication, which remains rare in comparison to the osteoporotic fractures prevented by antiresorptive therapy.

Journal: Management of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 20, 2019 Greater attention to the treatment of osteoporosis treatment rates among this high fracture-risk population is warranted. The importance of reducing mortality and morbidity associated with metastasis has led to the acceptance of new primary endpoints in the design of trials for nmCRPC and might result in widespread approval of new agents for this disease state.

Review, Journal: Bone: best papers of the year 2017. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 15, 2019 We discuss potential aetiologies of this patient's hypercalcaemia, calcinosis cutis diagnosis and management and the off-label use of denosumab. These papers offer a hopeful outlook for a better treatment and management of patients with osteoporosis and other metabolic bone diseases anno 2018.

Biomarker, Journal, IO Biomarker: Bone-targeted therapies to reduce skeletal morbidity in prostate cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 15, 2019 Ongoing studies will explore the impact of combining bone-targeted therapy with investigational therapeutic agents such as immunotherapy, for advanced prostate cancer. Future studies should strive to develop biomarkers of response, in order to improve efficacy and cost-effectiveness of these agents.

Journal: Cancer Treatment-Induced Bone Loss(CTIBL) (Pubmed Central) - Jun 15, 2019 ...It has been reported that bisphosphonates and denosumab prevent the bone loss and fractures in a part of these patients...However, there are some discrepancies in the evaluation and treatment of the patients in these guidelines. It is necessary to establish a management plan for patients with CTIBL in Japan in the future.

Journal: c-ANCA vasculitis after initiation of denosumab. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 15, 2019 Once suspicion for drug-induced vasculitis arises, the offending agent should be discontinued and immunosuppressive therapy should be initiated according to the severity of organ involvement to inhibit progression to severe, irreversible disease. As new medications continue to be developed, the number of agents causing drug-induced vasculitis is expected to increase.

Clinical, Journal, BRCA Biomarker: Clinical Impact of RANK Signalling in Ovarian Cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 12, 2019 Our study independently links RANKL expression with poor clinical outcome in two unrelated OC cohorts. These findings implicate RANK signalling in the immunopathogenesis of OC and warrant clinical trials with denosumab in OC.
