Background: Giant cell tumors of bone (GCTB) are osteolytic tumors. Denosumab, a RANK-L inhibitor, is approved for GCTB. Data on serum bone turnover marker (sBTM) changes are lacking. We present a phase II correlative study on sBTMs in GCTB patients treated with denosumab. Methods: All GCTB patients receiving denosumab within a multicentre, open-label, phase 2 study were enrolled. Serum levels of carboxyterminal-crosslinked-telopeptide of type I collagen (s-CTX), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone-alkaline phosphatase (bALP), parathyroid hormone (sPTH), and osteocalcin (OCN) were prospectively assessed (baseline, T0, 3 months, T1, 6 months, T2). The primary endpoint was assessment of sBTM changes after denosumab; the secondary endpoints were disease-free survival (DFS) and sBTM correlation. Results: In 54 cases, sBTMs decreased during denosumab treatment except for sPTH. With a median follow-up of 59 months, 3-year DFS was 65% (%CI 52−79), with a significantly worse outcome for patients with high (≥500 UI/mL) s-CTX at baseline, as compared to low s-CTX (<500 UI/mL) (3-year DFS for high CTX 45% (95%CI 23−67) vs. 75% (95%CI 59−91) for low s-CTX. Higher median ALP and s-CTX were found for patients with tumor size ≥ 5 cm (p = 0.0512; p = 0.0589). Conclusion: Denosumab induces ALP/OCN and s-CTX reduction. High baseline s-CTX identifies a group of patients at higher risk of progression of the disease.
骨巨细胞瘤(GCTB)是溶骨性肿瘤。地诺单抗,一种RANK-L抑制剂,已被批准用于治疗GCTB。目前缺乏血清骨转换标志物(sBTM)变化的数据。我们开展了一项关于接受地诺单抗治疗的GCTB患者sBTM的II期相关性研究。方法:纳入多中心、开放标签II期研究中所有接受地诺单抗治疗的GCTB患者。前瞻性评估血清I型胶原羧基末端交联肽(s-CTX)、碱性磷酸酶(ALP)、骨碱性磷酸酶(bALP)、甲状旁腺激素(sPTH)和骨钙素(OCN)水平(基线、T0、3个月、T1、6个月、T2)。主要终点是评估地诺单抗治疗后sBTM的变化;次要终点是无病生存期(DFS)和sBTM相关性。结果:54例患者中,除sPTH外,地诺单抗治疗期间sBTM均下降。中位随访59个月,3年DFS为65%(%CI 52−79),基线时s-CTX高(≥500 UI/mL)的患者结局明显较差,与低s-CTX(<500 UI/mL)患者相比(高CTX患者3年DFS为45%(95%CI 23−67),低s-CTX患者为75%(95%CI 59−91))。肿瘤大小≥5 cm的患者中位ALP和s-CTX更高(p = 0.0512;p = 0.0589)。结论:地诺单抗可降低ALP/OCN和s-CTX。高基线s-CTX可识别出一组疾病进展风险较高的患者。
