teriparatide

Recent advances in synthetic drug manufacturing have introduced a new dynamic to the European regulatory system, with chemically synthesized polypeptide products using biological originator products as their reference medicine. Whereas biosimilars are subject to a dedicated regulatory framework in the EU, synthetically produced follow-on products are not eligible for assessment through this pathway, requiring approval via the traditional generic pathway under Article 10 (1), or via the hybrid pathway under Article 10 (3)...

Teriparatide is an anabolic peptide drug indicated for the treatment of osteoporosis. Recombinant teriparatide was first approved in 2002 and has since been followed by patent-free alternatives under biosimilar or hybrid regulatory application. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the essential similarity between synthetic teriparatide BGW and the reference medicinal product (RMP), and thus to ensure the development of the first generic teriparatide drug. Hence, an extensive side-by-side comparative exercise, focusing on structural and biological activity, was performed using a wide range of state-of-the-art orthogonal methods...

For a wide range of chronic autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in both adults and children, synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs) are one of the most effective treatments. However, besides other adverse effects, GCs inhibit bone mass at multiple levels, and at different ages, especially in puberty. Although extensive studies have investigated the mechanism of GC-induced osteoporosis, their target cell populations still be obscure. Here, our data show that the osteoblast subpopulation among Gli1+ metaphyseal mesenchymal progenitors (MMPs) is responsive to GCs as indicated by lineage tracing and single-cell RNA sequencing experiments...

Hypoparathyroidism is the most common endocrinological feature in children with Sanjad-Sakati syndrome. Treatment includes active vitamin D and calcium supplementation. Here, we report a case of a newborn with Sanjad-Sakati syndrome who had severe hypocalcemia since birth who responded to PTH subcutaneous pump infusion. The child was born at 35 weeks with hypocalcemia since the first day of life. The standard medical treatment proved ineffective for the newborn, necessitating the administration of unusually high doses of oral and IV calcium and vitamin D analogue for a 2 months...

BACKGROUND: Subjects with a fragility fracture have an increased risk of a new fracture and should receive effective strategies to prevent new events. The medium-term to long-term strategy should be scheduled by considering the mechanisms of action in therapy and the estimated fracture risk. OBJECTIVE: A systematic review was conducted to evaluate the sequential strategy in patients with or at risk of a fragility fracture in the context of the development of the Italian Guidelines...

INTRODUCTION: Domino osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) is as a subsequent fracture that develops within 3 months before the initial OVF heals. There is limited evidence regarding the efficacy of osteoanabolic agents on its treatment. This study evaluated the effects of bisphosphonates and anabolic agents teriparatide and romosozumab on subsequent domino OVF. METHODS: This was post hoc analysis of a prospective, multicenter, observational study conducted across 8 hospitals, enrolling 144 patients with conservatively treated OVF, grouped into patients receiving bisphosphonate (BP, n  = 55), teriparatide (TPTD, n  = 62), and romosozumab (Romo, n  = 27)...

PURPOSE: Osteoporotic individuals who have dental implants usually require a prolonged healing time for osseointegration due to the shortage of bone mass and the lack of initial stability. Although studies have shown that intermittent teriparatide administration can promote osseointegration, there is little data to support the idea that pre-implantation administration is necessary and beneficial. METHODS: Sixty-four titanium implants were placed in the bilateral proximal tibial metaphysis in 32 female SD rats...

UNLABELLED: Osteoporosis treatment following arthroplasty for femoral neck fracture (FNF) is associated with lower rates of periprosthetic fracture (PPF). Our study evaluated the economic viability of treatment in patients following arthroplasty and demonstrates that treatment with oral bisphosphonates can be cost-effective in preventing PPF. INTRODUCTION: Osteoporosis treatment following arthroplasty for femoral neck fracture (FNF) is associated with lower rates of periprosthetic fracture (PPF)...

BACKGROUND: Teriparatide, a recombinant parathyroid hormone, is pivotal in osteoporosis treatment, particularly in post-surgical recovery for hip fractures. This study investigates its efficacy in functional recovery post-hip fracture surgery in elderly patients, a demographic particularly susceptible to osteoporotic fractures. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, 150 elderly patients with proximal femoral fractures undergoing open reduction and internal fixation were enrolled...

INTRODUCTION: Transient hypercalcaemia due to teriparatide occurs in up to 11% of patients though delayed hypercalcaemia (> 24 h post injection) is rare. We report the case of a female who developed significant delayed hypercalcaemia after teriparatide treatment for osteoporosis and review other cases in the literature to date. CASE REPORT: A 72-year-old female on teriparatide for the treatment of osteoporosis was found to have hypercalcaemia (3.30 mmol/l) on routine testing approximately 3 months after starting therapy...

CONTEXT: We previously reported that sequential teriparatide followed by denosumab substantially increases BMD in premenopausal idiopathic osteoporosis (PremenIOP). OBJECTIVE: To determine whether administration of bisphosphonates after denosumab cessation is associated with stable BMD in PremenIOP. DESIGN: Open-label extension study. PARTICIPANTS: 24 PremenIOP Teriparatide-Denosumab Study participants. INTERVENTIONS: Oral alendronate (ALN), 70mg weekly, or IV zoledronic acid (ZOL), 5mg once (patient choice), was administered 7 months (M) after final denosumab dose...

UNLABELLED: Antiresorptive medications do not negatively affect fracture healing in humans. Teriparatide may decrease time to fracture healing. Romosozumab has not shown a beneficial effect on human fracture healing. BACKGROUND: Fracture healing is a complex process. Uncertainty exists over the influence of osteoporosis and the medications used to treat it on fracture healing. METHODS: Narrative review authored by the members of the Fracture Working Group of the Committee of Scientific Advisors of the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), on behalf of the IOF and the Société Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopédique et de Traumatologie (SICOT)...

Osteoporosis is a progressive systemic skeletal disease that decreases bone density and bone quality, making them fragile and easy to break. In spite of effective anti-osteoporosis potency, teriparatide, the first anabolic medications approved for the treatment of osteoporosis, was proven to exhibit various side effects. And the relevant structure-activity relationship (SAR) of teriparatide was in need. In this work, we performed a systematical alanine scanning against teriparatide and synthesized 34 teriparatide derivatives...

Anabolic treatment is indicated for high and very-high risk patients with osteoporosis, but acceptance is limited because current anabolic medications require subcutaneous injections. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of a novel orally administered parathyroid hormone (PTH) tablet on serum markers of bone formation [N-terminal propeptide of Type I procollagen (PINP) and osteocalcin (OC)] and bone resorption [crosslinked C-telopeptide (CTX)], bone mineral density (BMD) and safety in postmenopausal women with low BMD or osteoporosis...

UNLABELLED: This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of sequential treatment with romosozumab-to-alendronate compared to alendronate monotherapy and teriparatide-to-alendronate, in postmenopausal osteoporotic women from a Belgian healthcare perspective. Romosozumab-to-alendronate was found to be cost-effective compared to alendronate monotherapy and dominant compared to teriparatide-to-alendronate for osteoporotic women at high risk of fracture in Belgium. PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of sequential treatment with romosozumab followed by alendronate compared to alendronate monotherapy and teriparatide followed by alendronate, in postmenopausal osteoporotic women at high risk of fracture, from a Belgian healthcare perspective...

BACKGROUND: In 2018, a grant was provided for an evidence-based guideline on osteoporosis and fracture prevention based on 10 clinically relevant questions. METHODS: A multidisciplinary working group was formed with delegates from Dutch scientific and professional societies, including representatives from the patient's organization and the Dutch Institute for Medical Knowledge. The purpose was to obtain a broad consensus among all participating societies to facilitate the implementation of the updated guideline...

CONTEXT: Continuous subcutaneous infusion of recombinant parathyroid hormone (rhPTH) through a pump has been proposed as a therapeutic alternative for patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism who remain symptomatic or hypercalciuric on conventional treatment (calcium and active vitamin D) or daily injections of rhPTH(1-84) or rhPTH(1-34). However, the real-world evidence of the outcome of this novel therapy is limited. CASE DESCRIPTIONS: We report the clinical and biochemical outcomes of 12 adults with hypoparathyroidism (11 women, age 30-70 years, and 1 man, age 30 years) from 3 different clinical sites in the United States who were transitioned from conventional therapy to daily injections of rhPTH(1-84) or rhPTH(1-34) and then switched to continuous administration of rhPTH(1-84)/rhPTH(1-34) via pump therapy...

INTRODUCTION: Although synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs) are commonly used to treat autoimmune and other diseases, GC induced osteoporosis (GIOP) which accounts for 25% of the adverse reactions, causes fractures in 30-50% of patients, and markedly decreases their quality of life. In 2014, the Japanese Society for Bone and Mineral Research (JSBMR) published the revised guidelines for the management and treatment of steroid-induced osteoporosis, providing the treatment criteria based on scores of risk factors, including previous fractures, age, GC doses, and bone mineral density, for patients aged ≥18 years who are receiving GC therapy or scheduled to receive GC therapy for ≥3 months...
