• BackgroundDenosumab treatment was shown to decrease the risk of vertebral and nonvertebral fracture in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis in the 3-year FREEDOM trial. The 7-year FREEDOM Extension is an open-label study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of denosumab treatment for up to 10 years.ObjectivesTo report the results through year 6 of the FREEDOM open-label Extension, representing up to 9 years of continued denosumab for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.MethodsDuring the Extension, all women received 60 mg denosumab every 6 months, and daily calcium and vitamin D. At Extension year 6, bone turnover markers, nonvertebral fracture incidence, and adverse events were evaluated. In these analyses, women in the long-term group received up to 9 years of denosumab (3 years in FREEDOM and up to 6 years in the Extension); women in the cross-over group received up to 6 years of denosumab (3 years of placebo in FREEDOM and up to 6 years of denosumab in the Extension), allowing replication of results from the long-term group.ResultsOf the women who enrolled in the Extension, 3,098 (68%) were still on study at the beginning of year 6, with a mean age of 79 years (range 68–98 years). In both groups, serum CTx and P1NP were similarly reduced after each denosumab dose. The characteristic attenuation was observed through each dosing period and reductions were sustained through Extension year 6. The yearly incidences of nonvertebral (Figure) and major nonvertebral fractures remained low in both groups. Rates of adverse events and serious adverse events were consistent with previously reported Extension data. In Extension year 6, 2 events were adjudicated positive for ONJ in the cross-over group; there were no cases of atypical femoral fracture in either group.ConclusionsIn this aging population, denosumab treatment for up to 9 years maintained reduced bone turnover and was associated with continued low incidence of nonvertebral and major nonvertebral fractures. The benefit/risk profile remained favorable.Disclosure of InterestS. Papapoulos Consultant for: Amgen Inc., Axsome, Gador, GSK, Merck, Novartis, UCB, C.
