Key clinical point: Switching to denosumab (Dmab) from bisphosphonates (BP) or selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) significantly suppressed osteoporosis progression in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Major finding: SERM-Dmab vs. SERM-SERM group showed significantly higher percentage change (P less than .04) in lumbar spine bone mineral density. BP-Dmab and SERM-Dmab groups showed a significantly lower percentage change in serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b compared with the BP-BP and SERM-SERM groups, respectively (P less than .05 for all).
Study details: The data come from a 24-week, prospective, parallel-group, observational study of 48 T2D postmenopausal patients with osteoporosis who were either switched from BP or SERM to Dmab (BP-Dmab group/SERM-Dmab group, respectively) or continued BP or SERM therapy (BP-BP group/SERM-SERM group, respectively).
Disclosures: The study received no financial support. A Nakamura, T Astumi, and H Miyoshi received honoraria for lectures and research funding from various pharmaceutical companies. The remaining authors declared no conflicts of interest.
