    OSTEOPOROSIS

    WHERE DO WE STAND NOW?By

    The global osteoporosis therapeutic

    market was valued at $9.6 billion in 2009.It is expected to grow to $18.2 billion

    by 2017. This significant growth is due

    to the strong current treatment optionsas well as to the strong pipeline

    candidates. The increased prevalence

    of osteoporosis among the femalepopulation is the principle driver of the

    osteoporosis market & will continue to be.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    4/83

    The significant reason for the increase in

    the prevalence is due to the decline inthe use of Hormone Replacement

    Therapy (HRT) in postemenopausal

    women . However recent negative studyresults showed an increased risk of

    Stroke , Heart attacks, Breast cancer

    and Blood clots have led to a decline

    in HRT usage & in addition to increase inthe population will combine to contribute to

    the increased burden of osteoporosis.

    MEASUREMENT OF BONE

    MINERAL DENSITY(BMD)

    12/83

    Dual-energy X-rayabsorptimetry(DXA).

    It is currently the standard method formeasuring bone density for the diagnosis

    and follow-up treatment of osteoporosis.

    However, owing to limitations in itstechnology, DXA is unable to reliably

    differentiate between cortical and

    trabecular bone and only provides a

    measure of areal bone mineral density

    (aBMD) using a 2-dimensional approach.

    Quantitative computed tomography

    (QCT), which is used less frequentlythan DXA, allows separation of cortical

    and trabecular bone and measures bone

    mineral density (BMD) 3-dimensionally.QCT is increasingly used in basic and

    clinical research to assess BMD as

    well as bone geometry. It scans thespine, hip & forearm.

    Where are we today?

    Bisphosphonates are the therapy of choice fortreating postmenopausal osteoporosis

    Potent nitrogen-containing bisphosphonatessignificantly reduce the risk of vertebral andnon-vertebral fractures

    Further improvements in therapy convenience,

    tolerability and adherence to treatment couldenhance patient management

    Issues with conventional bisphosphonates inpostmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO)

    Adherence to therapy is an important considerationwhen optimizing therapeutic outcomes in PMO

    Although highly effective and well tolerated, oralbisphosphonates are associated with relativelystringent dosing recommendations

    These dosing guidelines may be inconvenient to

    some patients and have the potential to reducecompliance

    Current & future research

    I- Skeletal deterioration induced byRANKL infusion:

    RANK Ligand produced by osteoblastsis an essential mediator for osteoclast

    development.Continuous administrat.

    of soluble RANKL in rats created abone loss model.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    45/83

    II- Improving bone formation and tissue

    engineering of large bone defects

    through stem cells:

    Implantation of autologous osteogenic

    cells, named multipotent stromal cells

    or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).

    The human MSCs can differentiate into

    adipogenic, chondrogenic, osteogenic

    and myogenic lineages.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    46/83

    This has generated a great deal of

    potential clinical use in regenerativemedicine & tissue engineering in the past

    decade. Although animal derived MSCs

    successfully bridge large bone defects,models for ectopic bone formation as

    well as recent clinical trials demonstrate

    that bone formation by human MSCs is

    inadequate & needs further research.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    47/83

    III- Use of proton pump inhibitorsand

    risk of osteoporosis-relatedfractures:

    The use of proton pump inhibitors

    has been associated with anincreased risk of hip fractures.

    It was found to be both dose

    dependent & duration dependent.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    48/83

    IV- Smoking predicts incident hip

    fractures in elderly men:3003 men aged 69 to 80 ys. of age

    completed a standard questionnaire

    concerning smoking habits & had

    BMD of the hip & spine.

    Smokers had more incident hipfractures than non-smokers.

    V- A new endocrine pancreas-bone axis:

    The skeleton is increasingly recognized

    as an important player in the coordinat.

    of global energy utilization through itshormonal interaction with other tissues.

    Insulin is a central regulator of energy

    and glucose balance in the body.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    50/83

    On one hand, osteoblasts secrete

    osteocalcin which may modify both

    insulin secretion and sensitivity.

    On the other hand, the insulin receptor

    is known to be expressed in osteoblasts,

    but its exact function in bone and

    energetic metabolism has remainedcontroversial.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    51/83

    VI- Leptin inhibits vitamin D synthesis

    through FGF 23 production:

    Leptin is a hormone secreted by

    adipocytes which controls not only food

    intake but also bone mass. Leptin was

    reported to decrease renal expression

    of the 25-hydroxylase D3,1 alphahydrox-

    ylase & thus to decrease the synthesis of

    Calcitriol by the renal proximal tubule.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    52/83

    This study focused on bone-derived

    fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) as

    a mediator of the influence of leptin on

    renal 1 alpha-hydroxylase mRNAexpression in leptin deficient mice.

    Exposure to leptin for 24 hs. stimulated

    FGF23 expression by primary culturedrat osteoblasts.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    53/83

    VII- FGF23: a novel predictor of fracture

    risk in elderly men:Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a

    bone derived circulating factor that

    decreases serum conc. of inorganicphosphorus & 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3.

    Increased FGF23 expression is a direct

    or indirect culprit in several skeletaldisorders, however the relationship between

    FGF23 & fracture risk remains undetermined.

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    54/83

    VIII- A future new class of bone forming

    drugs:Serotinin or 5- hydroxytryptamin (5-HT)

    has progressively emerged as an

    important regulator of bone remodeling.Serotonin is synthesized in two steps

    from the essential aminoacid tryptophan.

    It is released by neurons to influencebehavioral, physiological & cognitive functions

  • 8/7/2019 1-Dr. Samir El Badawy

    55/83

    Serotinin is also synthesized outside the

    brain mainly by the enterochromaffincells of the gastrointestinal tract.

    This gut-derived serotinin(GDS) has been

    recently shown to inhibit bone formation byreducing osteoblasts proliferation.

    LP533401 is an inhibitor of tryptophan

    hydroxylase which when given orally

    it reduces circulating but not brain

    serotinin levels.

    Every 30 seconds someone in theEuropean Union suffers a hip fracture

    as a result of osteoporosis

    It is never too late !

    an intriguing story 1865 First synthesis of a bisphosphonate by

    German chemists

    1930s Polyphosphates inhibit crystallization ofcalcium salts

    1960s Inorganic pyrophosphate preventscalcification of soft tissues and regulatesbone mineralization

    1970s and 1980s Bisphosphonates, stable pyrophosphateanalogues, prevent calcification in vitro and

    in vivo and inhibit osteoclast mediated boneresorptionTheir profound effects on osteoclastinhibition trigger exploration in a variety ofbone metabolism disorders associatedwith pathologically increased bone resorption
