Fracture and Bone Mineral Density Response by Baseline Risk in Patients Treated With Abaloparatide Followed by Alendronate: Results From the Phase 3 ACTIVExtend Trial.

In the randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase 3 ACTIVE study (NCT01343004), 18 months of abaloparatide 80 μg daily (subcutaneous injection) in postmenopausal women at risk of osteoporotic fracture significantly reduced the risk of vertebral, nonvertebral, clinical, and major osteoporotic fractures and significantly increased bone mineral density (BMD) versus placebo regardless of baseline risk factors. Women from the abaloparatide and placebo groups who completed ACTIVE were eligible for ACTIVExtend (NCT01657162), in which all enrollees received sequential, open-label monotherapy with alendronate 70 mg once weekly for up to 24 months. This prespecified analysis evaluated whether fracture risk reductions and bone mineral density (BMD) gains associated with abaloparatide during ACTIVE persisted through the full 43-month ACTIVE-ACTIVExtend study period in nine prespecified baseline risk subgroups. Baseline risk subgroups included BMD T-score at the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck (≤ - 2.5 versus > - 2.5 and ≤ -3.0 versus > - 3.0), history of nonvertebral fracture (yes/no), prevalent vertebral fracture (yes/no), and age (<65 versus 65 to <75 versus ≥75 years). Forest plots display treatment effect. Treatment-by-subgroup interactions were tested using the Breslow-Day test, Cox proportional hazards model, and ANCOVA model. After the combined ACTIVE-ACTIVExtend study period, reductions in relative risk for new vertebral, nonvertebral, clinical, and major osteoporotic fractures were greater among patients in the abaloparatide/alendronate group than among those in the placebo/alendronate group across all nine baseline risk subgroups. BMD gains at the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck were greater in the abaloparatide/alendronate group versus the placebo/alendronate group. No clinically meaningful interaction between treatment assignment and any baseline risk variable was observed. The sequence of abaloparatide for 18 months followed by alendronate for up to 24 months appears to be an effective treatment option for a wide range of postmenopausal women at risk for osteoporotic fractures. © 2019 The Authors.

Effects of Abaloparatide-SC on Fractures and Bone Mineral Density in Subgroups of Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis and Varying Baseline Risk Factors.

Abaloparatide-SC is a novel 34-amino acid peptide created to be a potent and selective activator of the parathyroid hormone receptor type 1 (PTHR1) signaling pathway. In the Abaloparatide Comparator Trial in Vertebral Endpoints (ACTIVE) Phase 3 trial (NCT01343004), abaloparatide reduced new morphometric vertebral fractures by 86% compared with placebo (p < 0.001) and nonvertebral fractures by 43% (p = 0.049) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Abaloparatide-SC increased bone mineral density (BMD) 3.4% at the total hip, 2.9% at the femoral neck, and 9.2% at the lumbar spine at 18 months (all p < 0.001 versus placebo). The analysis reported here was designed to evaluate whether fracture risk reductions and BMD accrual were consistent across different levels of baseline risk. Risk factor subgroups were predefined categorically for BMD T-score of the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck (≤-2.5 versus >-2.5 and ≤-3.0 versus >-3.0), history of nonvertebral fracture (yes versus no), prevalent vertebral fracture (yes versus no), and age (<65 versus 65 to <75 versus ≥75 years) at baseline. Forest plots show that there were no clinically meaningful interactions between any of the baseline risk factors and the treatment effect of abaloparatide-SC on new morphometric vertebral fractures, nonvertebral fractures, or BMD increases. Abaloparatide provides protection against fractures consistently across a wide variety of ages and baseline risks, including those with and without prior fractures, and it has potential utility for a broad group of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Eighteen Months of Treatment With Subcutaneous Abaloparatide Followed by 6 Months of Treatment With Alendronate in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis: Results of the ACTIVExtend Trial.

To assess the efficacy and safety of 18 months of subcutaneous abaloparatide (ABL-SC) or placebo (PBO) followed by 6 months of alendronate (ALN) (preplanned interim analysis). ACTIVExtend, an extension of ACTIVE, enrolled patients who completed 18 months of ABL-SC or PBO in ACTIVE to receive up to 24 additional months of open-label ALN; there was 1 month between the studies to re-consent patients. Of 1243 eligible ACTIVE patients, 1139 (92%) were enrolled in ACTIVExtend beginning November 20, 2012. These results are from a prespecified 6-month interim analysis (cutoff date, June 2, 2015); the study is ongoing. Findings indicated percentages of patients with new morphometric vertebral fractures: PBO/ALN, 4.4% vs ABL-SC/ALN, 0.55%; relative risk reduction, 87% (relative risk, 0.13; 95% CI, 0.04-0.41; P<.001). Kaplan-Meier estimated rates of nonvertebral fractures were PBO/ALN, 5.6% vs ABL-SC/ALN, 2.7%; risk reduction, 52% (hazard ratio [HR], 0.48; 95% CI, 0.26-0.89; log-rank P=.02). There was also a 58% risk reduction of major osteoporotic fractures (HR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.21-0.85; log-rank P=.01) and a 45% risk reduction of clinical fractures (HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.33-0.92; log-rank P=.02) in the ABL-SC/ALN group vs the PBO/ALN group. At 25 months, bone mineral density percentage change from ACTIVE baseline for ABL-SC/ALN vs PBO/ALN was as follows: lumbar spine, 12.8%; total hip, 5.5%; femoral neck, 4.5% vs 3.5%, 1.4%, 0.5%, respectively (group differences at all sites P<.001). Use of ABL-SC for 18 months followed by ALN for 6 months improved bone mineral density and reduced fracture risk throughout the skeleton and may be an effective treatment option for postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01657162.
