OBJECTIVE: Although calcitriol is essential for bone healing, its serum concentrations are low after hip surgery, and they continue to decline during bone healing. This study aimed to test the hypothesis of an association of changes in calcitriol production with the status of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and iron deficiency after elective hip replacement for coxarthrosis. METHODS: In this prospective study, we measured the biomarkers of 17 patients undergoing elective hip replacement on admission, on the first day after surgery, and at the regular check-up after 48 ± 8 days. The serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, transferrin, ferritin, parathyroid hormone, intact plasma FGF23 (iFGF23) and C-terminal FGF23 (cFGF23) were determined. RESULTS: In our patients who underwent elective hip replacement, significant correlations existed between the percent change in the conversion rate of 25(OH)D to 1,25(OH)2D, plasma intact to C-terminal FGF23 ratio, and serum iron. CONCLUSIONS: The production of calcitriol is compromised after elective hip replacement surgery, leading to reduced levels of active vitamin D in the serum. Significant correlations between the percent change in the conversion rate of 25(OH)D to 1,25(OH)2D, plasma intact to C-terminal FGF23 ratio, and serum iron on the first day as well as 7 weeks after surgery could inspire future studies to determine whether and how calcitriol deficiency should be corrected, especially in fracture cases.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the decrease in serum calcitriol concentrations after hip fracture. METHODS: Serum concentrations of calcitriol, 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), directly measured free 25(OH)D, and indices of bone formation were measured in elderly patients with hip fracture (HF) and patients with elective hip replacement (EHR) at admission and after 7 weeks. RESULTS: A total of 45 patients with HF and 17 patients with EHR completed this prospective study. Baseline serum calcitriol levels were ≤ 60 pmol/l in 26% of the HF patients. After 7 weeks, they significantly decreased (p < 0.001). In patients with EHR, serum calcitriol was within the reference range in all but one patient and did not change during the 7-week recovery phase. Seven weeks after HF, a significant positive relationship was observed between the change in calcitriol and serum 25(OH)D concentration (r = 0.385, p = 0.009) and free 25(OH)D (r = 0.296, p = 0.048), and a decrease in calcitriol during recovery was associated with a decrease in serum PTH (p = 0.038). Seven weeks after HF, changes in both serum PTH and serum 25(OH)D concentrations contributed to the prediction of changes in serum calcitriol (R2 = 0.190, p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Unlike patients with EHR, subjects with HF had low serum 25(OH)D and low free 25(OH)D concentrations at admission, while their serum 1,25D levels were relatively elevated. Decreases in circulating calcitriol levels in the 7 weeks following hip surgery were associated with a resolution of secondary hyperparathyroidism and low availability of free 25(OH)D.

FRAX® calculates the 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fractures (MOF), which are considered to have a greater clinical impact than other fractures. Our results suggest that, in postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis, those treated with teriparatide had a 60% lower risk of FRAX®-defined MOF compared with those treated with risedronate. INTRODUCTION: The VERO trial was an active-controlled fracture endpoint clinical trial that enrolled postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis. After 24 months, a 52% reduction in the hazard ratio (HR) of clinical fractures was reported in patients randomized to teriparatide compared with risedronate. We examined fracture results restricted to FRAX®-defined major osteoporotic fractures (MOF), which include clinical vertebral, hip, humerus, and forearm fractures. METHODS: In total, 1360 postmenopausal women (mean age 72.1 years) were randomized to receive subcutaneous daily teriparatide (20 μg) or oral weekly risedronate (35 mg). Patient cumulative incidence of ≥ 1 FRAX®-defined MOF and of all clinical fractures were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analyses, and the comparison between treatments was based on the stratified log-rank test. Additionally, an extended Cox model was used to estimate HRs at different time points. Incidence fracture rates were estimated at each 6-month interval. RESULTS: After 24 months, 16 (2.6%) patients in the teriparatide group had ≥ 1 low trauma FRAX®-defined MOF compared with 40 patients (6.4%) in the risedronate group (HR 0.40; 95% CI 0.23-0.68; p = 0.001). Clinical vertebral and radius fractures were the most frequent FRAX®-defined MOF sites. The largest difference in incidence rates of both FRAX®-defined MOF and all clinical fractures between treatments occurred during the 6- to 12-month period. There was a statistically significant reduction in fractures between groups as early as 7 months for both categories of clinical fractures analyzed. CONCLUSION: In postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis, treatment with teriparatide was more efficacious than risedronate, with a 60% lower risk of FRAX®-defined MOF during the 24-month treatment period. Fracture risk was statistically significantly reduced at 7 months of treatment. CLINICAL TRIAL INFORMATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01709110 EudraCT Number: 2012-000123-41.

Prospective, controlled clinical trials in postmenopausal osteoporosis typically compare effects of an active drug with placebo in addition to vitamin D and calcium supplementation in both treatment arms. While clinical benefits are documented, the effect of this supplementation in the placebo arm and in clinical practice on bone material composition properties is unknown. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate these bone quality indices (specifically mineral/matrix, nanoporosity, glycosaminoglycan content, mineral maturity/crystallinity, and pyridinoline content) in patients that either received long-term vitamin D (400-1200IU) and calcium (1.0-1.5g) supplementation, or did not. We have analyzed by Raman microspectroscopy the bone forming trabecular surfaces of iliac crest in pre-treatment samples of a teriparatide study and the endpoint biopsies of the control arm obtained from the HORIZON trial. In general, the mineral/matrix ratio and the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content was higher while nanoporosity, (a surrogate for tissue water content), the mineral maturity/crystallinity (MMC) and the pyridinoline (Pyd) content was lower in patients without long-term supplementation. Moreover, all indices were significantly dependent on tissue age. In conclusion, vitamin D and calcium supplementation is associated with altered mineral and organic matrix properties.

Teriparatide (TPTD) is the only currently available therapeutic agent that increases the formation of new bone tissue and can provide some remediation of the architectural defects in the osteoporotic skeleton. The use of teriparatide clinically is limited to 24 months. We review clinical findings during daily teriparatide treatment over time. Teriparatide appears to increase bone formation more than bone resorption as determined biochemically and histologically. Teriparatide exerts its positive effects on bone formation in two distinct fashions. The first is direct stimulation of bone formation that occurs within active remodeling sites (remodeling-based bone formation) and on surfaces of bone previously inactive (modeling-based bone formation). The second is an increase in the initiation of new remodeling sites. Both processes contribute to the final increase in bone density observed by non-invasive tools such as DXA. Remodeling is the repair process by which skeletal tissue is maintained in a young healthy state, and when stimulated by TPTD is associated with a positive bone balance within each remodeling cavity. It seems likely therefore that this component will contribute to the anti-fracture efficacy of TPTD. Teriparatide reduces the risk of fracture, and this effect appears to increase with longer duration of therapy. The use of novel treatment regimens, including shorter courses, should be held in abeyance until controlled clinical trials are completed to define the relative fracture benefits of such approaches in comparison to the 24-month daily use of the agent. Summary In patients with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture, the full continuous 24-month course with teriparatide results in improved skeletal health and outcomes than shorter time periods.
UNLABELLED: A 12-month morning teriparatide (TPTD) administration resulted in a larger increase in the lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) than the evening application. The results indicate that the response of bone cells to teriparatide treatment depends on dosing time. INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to assess the long-term effects of the morning vs. the evening teriparatide administration on BMD and bone turnover markers (BTMs) in postmenopausal osteoporosis. METHODS: Fifty women with established postmenopausal osteoporosis were randomized to 12-month treatment with 20 μg of TPTD, administered daily in the morning or in the evening. The BMD and serum concentrations of C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform 5b (TRAP 5b) were measured at baseline, after 6 and 12 months. General linear model-repeated measurements were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: After 12 months, the lumbar spine BMD grew markedly (p < 0.001) with a significantly greater increase in the morning arm compared to the evening arm (9.1% vs. 4.8%, respectively, p < 0.05). The BMD at the distal radius significantly decreased (p < 0.001), with no differences between the arms. The BMD at proximal femur did not change significantly. After 6 months, the BTMs were significantly increased compared with baseline (p < 0.001). The increases in the evening arm vs. the morning arm, however, were more pronounced in PINP (+358% vs. +215%, respectively) and in TRAP 5b (+70% vs. +37%, respectively) (both p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: 12-month morning administration of TPTD resulted in a larger increase in the lumbar spine BMD than the evening application. The timing of TPTD administration may be important for its efficacy.
