+Detailed description

125 postmenopausal women treated with Dmab for 3 or more years who will reach osteopenia with denosumab will be randomized into three groups: i) zoledronate infusion (5mg) at 6 months after last Dmab dose (single Zol group) ii) zoledronate infusion (5mg) at 6 and 12 months after last Dmab dose (double Zol group) iii) alendronate 70mg orally weekly for 12 months (ALN group) All women will receive no further treatment during the 2nd year of the study.

Participating centers: ECTS affiliated bone centers

Endpoints: Primary: BMD changes at the lumbar spine at 12 months. Secondary: i) BMD changes at the lumbar spine at 24 months; ii) BMD changes at the non-dominant femoral neck and total hip at 12 and 24 months; iii) changes at levels of bone turnover markers throughout the study; iv) incident fractures: vertebral (clinical and morphometric identified on VFA scans) and non-vertebral; v) clinical parameters: height change, VAS for back pain, and use of analgesics

single Zol groupDrug: Zoledronate or Alendronatepostmenopausal women treated with denosumab for 3 or more years who will reach osteopenia with denosumab and will receive a single zoledronate infusion (5mg) at 6 months after the last denosumab dose
double Zol groupDrug: Zoledronate or Alendronatepostmenopausal women treated with denosumab for 3 or more years who will reach osteopenia with denosumab and will receive two zoledronate infusions (5mg) at 6 and 12 months after the last denosumab dose
ALN groupDrug: Zoledronate or Alendronatepostmenopausal women treated with denosumab for 3 or more years who will reach osteopenia with denosumab and will receive alendronate 70mg orally weekly for 12 months
  • Zoledronate or Alendronate (Drug), also known as Calcium and vitamin D supplementation: infusion (for zoledronate) or oral digestion (for alendronate)

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • lumbar spine BMD [24 months]: BMD changes at the lumbar spine at 12 and 24 months

Secondary outcomes

  • femoral neck BMD [24 months]: BMD changes at the non-dominant femoral neck and total hip at 12 and 24 months
  • P1NP [baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months]: bone turnover (formation) marker
  • CTx [24 months]: bone turnover (resorption) marker
  • fracture [24 months]: incident fractures: vertebral (clinical and morphometric identified on VFA scans) and non-vertebral
  • height [24 months]: loss of height
