Bone Turnover Suppression
Based on an ASBMR/ECTS Clincal Debate
“Too Much Suppression of Turnover Is Bad for Bone”

In support of the statement that
“too much suppression of bone turnover is bad for bone”
Patients
• Treated with high-dose bisphosphonates (BPs)
• With adynamic bone disease
• Treated with glucocorticoids
Patients undergoing radiotherapy for cancer therapy can have zero bone turnover at the
site of irradiation and are at risk for fracture
Glucocorticosteroid Effects on Vertebral Fracture
Patients on glucocorticoid therapy have a fivefold increase in vertebral fracture risk over controls within months of initiating treatment
Dialysis patients with adynamic bone disease have 6x higher hip fracture risk, more 2x the vertebral fracture risk than dialysis patients without low bone turnover
Fractures in the ADOPT Study
*P<0.01; †P<0.05 for the comparison with rosiglitazone (unadjusted, contingency chi-square test).
• Over 9% of women developed a fracture over 4 years compared with 5% of those on metformin and
about 3% on glyburide
Rosiglitazone decreases bone formation and can lead to a rapid and significant decrease in bone density

Bone Suppression/Low Bone Turnover
• Too much suppression should be defined as bone turnover markers below levels found in
healthy people
• Bone markers in clinical use remain controversial but P1NP may be the most useful
• Various clinical trials indicate that many patients who receive standard treatment for
osteoporosis have low bone turnover
• Atypical subtrochanteric fractures may be associated with long-term BP use although they can
occur in treatment-naive patients as well
• Severe sustained suppression of bone turnover can lead to osteonecrosis of the jaw
regardless of how bone turnover is suppressed
• Glycosylation of the bone matrix can impair the mechanical properties of bone
PINP levels showing density distribution of patients treated with alendronate 10
mg/day or raloxifene 60 mg/day for ≥12 months
After treatment, most women
had P1NP concentrations
within the lower half of the
premenopausal reference
interval (3% below lower limit)
After treatment, 60% of women
had P1NP concentrations
below the lower limit of the
premenopausal reference
interval
1.2, 1.9 on scale represent the lower and upper limits and 1.5 the geometric mean.
Prior to treatment, P1NP concentrations were in the upper half of the reference interval.

Randomized Double-Blind Trial to Compare the Efficacy of Teriparatide with Alendronate in Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis
Adapted from Eastell et al. Osteoporos Int 2010;Epub ahead of print.
• The majority of patients in the FREEDOM trial had P1NP levels below reference
intervals for healthy young individuals
• Despite this, the incidence of vertebral fracture, hip and non-vertebral fracture risk in
denosumab recipients was lower than in controls and there was no signal of bone
harm
Summary
• Evidence linking BP use with osteonecrosis of the jaw is extremely weak
• Even in the setting of atypical fractures of the femur, research indicates there is considerable
cellular activity near the femur
• There is no clear link between low bone turnover and AFFs
• The ASBMR Task Force recently stated that a causal association between BPs and AFFs has
not been established
