    • The presence of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) markedly increases the risk of hypocalcemia in these patients

    • Patients with hypocalcemia: Pre-existing hypocalcemia must be corrected prior to initiating therapy with Ospomyv
    • Pregnant women: Denosumab products may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In women of reproductive potential, pregnancy testing should be performed prior to initiating treatment with Ospomyv
    • Patients with hypersensitivity to denosumab products: Ospomyv is contraindicated in patients with a history of systemic hypersensitivity to any component of the product. Reactions have included anaphylaxis, facial swelling, and urticaria

    The most common adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of denosumab products in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis are back pain and constipation.
    3.1Clinical Trials Experience
    Because clinical studies are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical studies of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical studies of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
    3.2Postmarketing Experience
    Because postmarketing reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
    The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of denosumab products:
    • Drug-related hypersensitivity reactions: anaphylaxis, rash, urticaria, facial swelling, and erythema
    • Hypocalcemia: severe symptomatic hypocalcemia resulting in hospitalization, life-threatening events, and fatal cases
    • Musculoskeletal pain, including severe cases
    • Parathyroid hormone (PTH): Marked elevation in serum PTH in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min) or receiving dialysis
    • Multiple vertebral fractures following treatment discontinuation
    • Cutaneous and mucosal lichenoid drug eruptions (e.g. lichen planus-like reactions)
    • Alopecia
    • Vasculitis (e.g. ANCA positive vasculitis, leukocytoclastic vasculitis)
    • Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome
