Abstract

Summary

Trends toward more favorable improvement of the cortical bone parameters by once-weekly (56.5 μg once a week) and twice-weekly teriparatide (28.2 μg twice a week), and that of the trabecular bone parameters by once-daily (1/D) teriparatide (20 μg/day once a day) were shown.

Purpose

To examine the effects of differences in the amount of teriparatide (TPTD) per administration and its dosing frequency on the bone structure in the proximal femur by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based 3D-modeling (3D-SHAPER software).

Methods

This was a multicenter retrospective study. Patients aged 50 years or older with primary osteoporosis who continuously received once-/twice-weekly (1・2/W, = 60) or 1/D TPTD (= 14) administration for at least one year were included in the study. Measurement regions included the femoral neck (FN), trochanter (TR), femoral shaft (FS), and total proximal hip (TH). Concurrently, the bone mineral density (BMD) and Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) were measured.

Results

The cross-sectional area, cross-sectional moment of inertia, and section modulus in the FS were significantly improved in the 1・2/W TPTD group, as compared to the 1/D TPTD group. However, significant improvement of the cortical thickness and buckling ratio in the FN was observed in the 1/D TPTD group, as compared to the 1・2/W TPTD group. Trabecular BMD values in the FS and TH were significantly increased in the 1/D TPTD group, as compared to the 1・2/W TPTD group, while the cortical BMD values in the TR, FS, and TH were significantly increased in the 1・2/W TPTD group, as compared to the 1/D TPTD group.

Conclusion

Trends toward more favorable improvement of the cortical bone by 1・2/W TPTD and that of the trabecular bones by 1/D TPTD were observed.
