PHARMACOKINETICS
Inverse relation between pharmacologic activity & oral bioavailability!
!Absorption by passive diffusion from gut!
!Milk & dairy products, orange juice, coffee and calcium and iron
products reduce absorption (Form insoluble complexes)!!
Bound to plasma proteins!!
20-80% of the absorbed dose is rapidly taken up by bone. !
Remainder is rapidly excreted in urine!!
Long skeletal retention (half life up to 10 years)

High attraction for hydroxyapatite crystals and thus rapidly included into all parts of
skeleton !

metastatic bone disease

Bone Remodelling With Alendronate
Gets preferentially bound under osteoclasts. !
Osteoclasts ingest the attached alendronate. Released alendronate inactivates the osteoclasts.
!Bone resorption inhibited.
Alendronate may reduce the number of remodelling sites

25
Bisphosphonates – Clinical Efficacy
Controlled clinical trials indicate over 3-4 year period, alendronate ↑ bone mass and ↓ incidence of vertebral, hip, and all non-
vertebral fractures by 50%!!
Controlled clinical trials indicate risedronate ↑ bone mass and ↓ risk of vertebral fractures by 40% and non-vertebral fractures by
30% over 3-year period!!
Ibandronate has been shown in controlled clinical trials to ↑ BMD and reduce the risk of vertebral fracture by 50% over 3-year period!
!Alendronate appears to be well tolerated and effective for at least
ten years
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
26
Bisphosphonate Therapy - Risks
Initial studies taken to the FDA to gain approval for these drugs identified a lower than expected
risk of GI side effects No unexpected side effects were seen in these
studies However, about 15 years ago, cases of
osteonecrosis of the jaw which dentists had not seen for a least a century, began to appear
Subsequently, the possibility of an increased risk of atypical femur fractures in patients treated
with these drugs was proposed.
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
27
Osteonecrosis Of Jaw
Exposed necrotic bone in the maxillo-facial region
Not healing after 6-8 weeks in patients with no hx of craniofacial radiation
Exposed yellow-white hard bone with smooth or ragged borders, often in the site of dental extraction or other invasive dental procedure
with poorly fitting dentures Over 90% of reported cases in cancer
patients receiving BP doses 10X higher than used to treat osteoporosis Estimated incidence in OP:
1:10,000-1:100,000

BISPHOSPHONATE RELATEDOSTEONECROSIS OF THE JAW (BRONJ)
!
Patients may be considered to have BONJ if they have exposed bone in
the maxillofacial region for at least 8 weeks, are currently on or have
taken bisphosphonates and have no history of radiotherapy to the jaws
(AAOMS )
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
WHY DOES BONJ ONLY AFFECT THE MAXILLOFACIAL SKELETON
BPs accumulate in high turnover areas like mandible than elsewhere.!
!As a result of trauma or infection bone
cannot respond adequately.!!
Masticatory Forces!Chronic Low Grade Trauma!
Unable to repair micro-fractures!Necrotic Bone!

Femoral Shaft Fractures
In 2005, Odvina et al reported a series of nine patients with spontaneous, atypical fractures, all on bisphosphonate therapy for a period of
time ranging from 3 to 8 years. Four with fractures in the subtrochanteric region and one each with fractures of the
sacrum, rib, ischium, pubic rami and lumbar spine.
6/9 had delayed or absent healing during management.
Histology revealed over suppression of bone turnover, possibly linked to bisphosphonate usage, but other factors, i.e.. estrogens and
glucocorticoid use left much room for debate.

Atypical Fractures of the Femoral Diaphysis in Postmenopausal Women Taking Alendronate. Lenart, Brett; Lorich, Dean; Lane, Joseph !New England Journal of Medicine. 358(12):1304-1306, March 20, 2008.
Radiographs of Fractures of the Femoral Shaft Showing the"Simple with Thick Cortices”
!Pattern Panel A shows a fracture of the femoral shaft
in an 83-year-old woman with a 9-year history of alendronate use. Panel B shows a similar fracture in a
77-year-old woman with a 5-year history of alendronate use.
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
33
Femoral Shaft Fractures
Usually occur in the proximal third of the femoral shaft !
May have a prodrome of thigh pain !
Often bilateral or sequential !
X-rays prior to fracture may reveal some beaking of the cortex and cortical thickening of the proximal femoral
shaft !
Early identification may require intervention – but exactly what is unclear
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
34
Atypical Femoral Fracture
Shane et al, JBMR 25:2010;25:2267–2294.
Conventional AP radiograph of the pelvis (A) shows bilateral focal cortical thickening from periosteal new bone formation (arrows). Corresponding bone scintigraphy (B) demonstrates focal increased radionuclide uptake in the proximal lateral femoral cortices (arrows). MRI images of the femurs (C) demonstrate subtle decreased
signal on T1-weighted and increased signal on T2-weighted images only of the right femur on!
this section. Similar findings on AP DXA hip images (D) show focal bilateral cortical thickening consistent with early, evolving femoral insufficiency fractures.

Bisphosphonate Use and the Risk of Subtrochanteric or Femoral Shaft Fractures
in Older Women
L. Park-Wyllie, PharmD, MS, M. Mamdani, PharmD, MA, MPH, D. Juurlink, MD, PhD, G. Hawker, MD, MSc, N. Gunraj, MPH, P. Austin, PhD, D. Whelan, MD, MSc, P. Weiler, MD, MASc, P Eng. Laupacis, MD, MSc
JAMA. 2011;305(8):783-789
Population-based, nested case-control study in a cohort of women aged 68 years or older from Ontario, Canada treated with oral bisphosphonate between April 1, 2002, and March 31, 2008. Primary analysis - association between hospitalization for a
subtrochanteric or femoral shaft fracture and duration of bisphosphonate exposure
Secondary analysis - association of bisphosphonate use and classic intertrochanteric or femoral neck fractures
Dr.Sandeep C Agrawal Agrasen Hospital Gondia India www.agrasenortho.com!
36
Summary
716 (0.35%) suffered a subtrochanteric or femoral shaft fracture after receiving
bisphosphonate therapy. Cases were matched with 3580 controls
Bisphosphonate treatment to prevent typical femoral fractures should last at
least 5 years. Bisphosphonate treatment for more than 5
years begins to increase the risk for atypical femoral shaft fractures which are
still extremely rare.

Bisphosphonates for Osteoporosis — Where Do We Go from Here?
Available data do not identify patients likely to benefit from treatment
beyond 3-5 years. !!!
… decisions to continue treatment must be based on individual
assessment of risks and benefits and on patient preference.

38
How Long to Treat With Bisphosphonates?
1.Patients who did not need treatment in the first place Discontinue Treatment
!2.Lower risk patients, if DXA is stable/increasing
Consider a drug holiday after 3-5 years of treatment !
3.Higher risk patients (fractures, corticosteroid Rx, very low BMD)
Consider a drug holiday after 10 years of therapy !
4.May use teriparatide or raloxifene (but not another potent antiresorptive agent – ie. denosumab) during
the holiday from bisphosphonates

Proposed Guidelines for Use of Bisphosphonates
1.Patients with bone density T-scores of -2.5 or lower at femoral neck after 3 to 5 years of treatment at highest risk for vertebral
fractures and appear to benefit most from continued therapy (for up to 10 years).
!2.Patients with an existing vertebral fracture and T-scores up to
−2.0 may also benefit from continued therapy. !
3.Patients with femoral neck T-scores above −2.0 have low risk of vertebral fractures and are unlikely to benefit from continued
treatment after 3-5 years.

THE “DRUG HOLIDAY”
Suggested that cessation of the BPs allows regeneration of osteoclasts and some improvement in bone turnover.!
! For patient who has been taking an oral BP longer than
3years, it should be discontinued, 3 months before and 3 months after the surgical procedure, if approved by the
patient’s physician.! !
Serum C-telopeptide (CTx) levels should be greater than 150 pg/mL before any surgical procedure, and rechecked
at the time of surgery. ! (Lam DK, Sandor
GKB 2007)

When Should the Holiday End?*
Arbitrary* - Longer for drugs with highest skeletal affinity (zoledronic acid), shorter for drugs with lowest
skeletal affinity (risedronate)? !
Many patients will have been on more than one - complicating matters.
!Some use bone turnover markers (measure degree of active bone resorption) – but which ones and what cut
off values to use is unclear. !
There is no good evidence here. BMD – If significant decrease seen with annual testing
