WHAT PROLIA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT PROLIA IS AND HOW IT WORKS
Prolia contains denosumab, a protein (monoclonal antibody) that
interferes with the action of another
protein, in order to treat bone loss and osteoporosis. Treatment with
Prolia makes bone stronger and
less likely to break.
Bone is a living tissue and is renewed all the time. Oestrogen helps
keep bones healthy. After the
menopause, oestrogen level drops which may cause bones to become thin
and fragile. This can
eventually lead to a condition called osteoporosis. Osteoporosis can
also occur in men due to a number
of causes including ageing and/or a low level of the male hormone,
testosterone. It can also occur in
patients receiving glucocorticoids. Many patients with osteoporosis
have no symptoms, but they are
still at risk of breaking bones, especially in the spine, hips and
wrists.

testosterone used to treat patients with

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and in men at
increased risk of fractures. In
postmenopausal women Prolia significantly reduces the risk of
vertebral, non-vertebral and hip
fractures.
Treatment of bone loss associated with hormone ablation in men with
prostate cancer at increased risk
of fractures (see section 5.1). In men with prostate cancer receiving
hormone ablation, Prolia
significantly reduces the risk of vertebral fractures.
Treatment of bone loss associated with long-term systemic
glucocorticoid therapy in adult patients at
increased risk of fracture (see section 5.1).
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The recommended dose is 60 mg denosumab administered as a single
subcutaneous injection once
every 6 months into the thigh, abdomen or upper arm.
Patients must be adequately supplemented with calcium and vitamin D
(see section 4.4).
Patients treated with Prolia should be given the package leaflet and
the patient reminder card.
The optimal total duration of antiresorptive treatment for
osteoporosis (including both denosumab and
bisphosphonates) has not been established. The need for continued
treatment should be re-evaluated
periodically based on the benefits and potential risks of denosumab on
an individual patient basis,
particularly after 5 or more years of use (see section 4.4).
