Objectives
State the indications for bone mineral
density testing
Understand and describe the utility of
the FRAX tool
List the medications that have proven

Osteoporosis
“…is a systemic skeletal disease
characterized by low bone mass and
microarchitectural deterioration of
bone tissue, with a consequent
increase in bone fragility and
susceptibility to fracture.”

Osteoporosis: A Common Problem in
the General Population
•
In the United States, 10 million individuals
are estimated to have osteoporosis
•
•
8 million are women
34 million more are estimated to have low
bone mass (osteopenia)
•
They have an increased risk for developing
osteoporosis
Estimated Annual Incidence of Osteoporosis-Related Fractures in Women and Men
Annual Incidence of Osteoporotic Fractures Higher Than Other Epidemic
Diseases
Osteoporosis
•
Fractures
•
•
1 in 2 females over age 50 will fracture
1 in 4 males over age 50 will fracture
Osteoporosis
•
Fractures
•
•
•
•
Increased mortality seen after hip and
vertebral fractures
20% mortality in first year after hip fracture
25% require long-term nursing home care
after hip fracture
80,000 male hip fractures annually
(2x mortality with age matched females)
Osteoporosis
•
Cost
•
•
•
Each hip fracture costs $40,000 (2001)
Fractures cost $13 billion per year (2005)
Expected costs to exceed $60 billion by
2030
Prior Fracture as a Predictor of Fracture Risk
Risk Factors for Osteoporotic Fractures
Vertebral Fractures Have Significant Consequences for Patients, Including Dorsal
Kyphosis
Hip and Other Non-Vertebral Fractures Have Significant Consequences
Most Hip Fracture Patients Receive No Pharmacologic Treatment for
Osteoporosis
Clinical Presentation of Osteoporosis
DXA
• “Gold-standard” for BMD (Bone Mineral
Density) measurement
• Measures “central” or “axial” skeletal sites:
spine and hip
• May measure other sites: total body and
forearm
• Widely available (about 10,000 DXA
machines in USA)

Indications For Bone Mineral
Density (BMD) Testing
•
•
•
•
•
Women aged 65 and older
Postmenopausal women under age 65 with risk factors
Men aged 70 and older
Adults with a fragility fracture
Adults with a disease or condition associated with low
bone mass or bone loss
• Adults taking medications associated with low bone mass
or bone loss
• Anyone being considered for pharmacologic therapy
• Anyone being treated, to monitor treatment effect
Women discontinuing estrogen should be considered for
bone density testing according to the indications listed above

Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (ONJ)
•
368 reported cases (5/06)
•
94% with intravenous bisphosphonate use
•
•

Recommendations
• Route dental exams & promotion of
good oral hygiene
• Dental exam is not necessary prior
to bisphosphonate therapy
• No alteration or delay in planned
surgery is necessary
• Discuss benefits/risks of treatment

Safety Topics in the Media
•

•
•
FDA (3/10): data have not shown a clear
connection with bisphosphonate use
Similar number of these fractures in those
not on bisphosphonates
Safety Topics in the Media
Typical femur fracture
Atypical femur fracture
Associated with fall (95%)
No fall
No prodrome
Prodromal thigh pain
30-50% reduction with effective
bisphosphonate
Often associated with
bisphosphonate/steroid use
Located at or above trochanter
Below intertrochanteric line
General unilateral
Uni or bilateral
No cortical thickness change
Increased femoral cortical
thickness
Generally spiral
Transverse with medial spike
Safety Topics in the Media
•
Esophageal Cancer
•
•
•
2 large studies in the UK with conflicting
results
FDA has not concluded that taking an oral
bisphosphonate increases the risk of
esophageal cancer
Would avoid bisphosphonates in patients
with Barrett’s esophagus
Drug Holiday: FDA
“ In light of all the risk-benefit challenges with the
bisphosphonate class, these data suggest that
bisphosphonate therapy could be safely discontinued
from an efficacy standpoint. However, additional longterm data would be needed to further define an
appropriate duration of drug cessation and to
determine if interim monitoring is appropriate on an
individual basis.”
“There are no substantial data available to inform decision
regarding the initiation or duration of a drug holiday.”
FDA Advisory Committee (9/9/11)
