Context Improving vitamin D status may be an important modifiable risk factor to reduce falls and fractures; however, adherence to daily supplementation is typically poor. Smith H et al. Rheumatology 2007;46:1852-‐1857 Objective To determine whether a single annual dose of 500 000 IU of cholecalciferol administered orally to older women in autumn or winter would improve adherence and reduce the risk of falls and fracture. Design, Setting, and Participants A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 2256 community-dwelling women, aged 70 years or older, considered to be at high risk of soggetti (4354 assigned uomini to – 5086 donne fracture were recruited from June 2003 to June9440 2005 and were randomly receive cholecalciferol or placebo each>70 autumn winter forUI 3 to years. The study or placebo aa,to300 000 of5ergocalciferolo concluded in 2008. Intervention 500 000 IU of cholecalciferol or placebo. Main Outcome Measures Falls and fractures were ascertained using monthly calendars; details were confirmed by telephone interview. Fractures were radiologically confirmed. In a substudy, 137 randomly selected participants underwent serial blood sampling for 25-hydroxycholecalciferol and parathyroid hormone levels. Results Women in the cholecalciferol (vitamin D) group had 171 fractures vs 135 in the placebo group; 837 women in the vitamin D group fell 2892 times (rate, 83.4 per 100 person-years) while 769 women in the placebo group fell 2512 times (rate, 72.7 per 100 person-years; incidence rate ratio [RR], 1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.30; P=.03). The incidence RR for fracture in the vitamin D group was 1.26 (95% CI, 1.00-1.59; P=.047) vs the placebo group (rates per 100 person-years, 4.9 vitamin D vs 3.9 placebo). A temporal pattern was observed in a post hoc analysis of falls. The incidence RR of falling in the vitamin D group vs the placebo group was 1.31 in the first 3 months after dosing and 1.13 during the following 9 months (test for homogeneity; P = .02). In the substudy, the median baseline serum 25hydroxycholecalciferol was 49 nmol/L. Less than 3% of the substudy participants had 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels lower than 25 nmol/L. In the vitamin D group, 25hydroxycholecalciferol levels increased at 1 month after dosing to approximately 120 nmol/L, were approximately 90 nmol/L at 3 months, and remained higher than the placebo group 12 months after dosing. Conclusion Among older community-dwelling women, annual oral administration of high-dose cholecalciferol resulted in an increased risk of falls and fractures.

CONCLUSIONS Bari, 7-10 novembre 2013 • Denosumab treatment for 6 years (overall long-‐term group) and regardless of age (< 75 years and ≥ 75 years groups): – Was associated with low incidences of new vertebral, nonvertebral, and hip fractures – Con3nued to significantly increase BMD year to year – Remained well tolerated • These results underscore the consistent an3-‐fracture efficacy and safety profile of con3nued denosumab treatment over 6 years. • Denosumab is a therapeu3c op3on for women at higher risk for fracture, notably those ≥ 75 years, in whom hip fractures increase exponen3ally due to trabecular and cor3cal bone decay.
