- Lichenoid drug eruptions (e.g., lichen planus-like reactions)
- Atypical subtrochanteric and diaphyseal fracture
Warnings
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity
Hypocalcemia
Pregnancy (Prolia only)
Cautions
Denosumab is available as 2 distinct brands (Prolia and Xgeva) that have different dosage strengths for their respective indications; do not use concurrently
Serious infections (including cellulitis) and dermatologic reactions (eg, dermatitis, rashes, eczema) have been reported; advise patients to seek prompt medical attention if they develop signs or symptoms of infection, including cellulitis; consider discontinuing therapy if severe symptoms develop
Hypersensitivity (including anaphylaxis) has been reported; symptoms have included hypotension, dyspnea, throat tightness, facial and upper airway edema, pruritus, and urticaria
Severe and occasionally incapacitating bone, joint, and/or muscle pain has been reported; discontinue use if severe symptoms develop
Atypical femoral fracture reported; risk increased with longer duration of treatment; events have occurred during and after treatment discontinued; evaluate patients with thigh or groin pain to rule out a femoral fracture
Following discontinuation of denosumab, fracture risk increases, including risk of multiple vertebral fractures
Thearpy results in significant suppression of bone turnover; cessation of therapy results in increased bone turnover above pretreatment values 9 months after last dose; bone turnover then returns to pretreatment values 24 months after last dose
Significant suppression of bone remodeling as evidenced by markers of bone turnover and bone histomorphometry; long-term consequences of the degree of suppression of bone remodeling observed may contribute to adverse outcomes such as osteonecrosis of the jaw, atypical fractures, and delayed fracture healing
Pediatric use
- Not approved for use in pediatric patients; hypercalcemia has been reported in pediatric patients with osteogenesis imperfecta treated with denosumab products, including this drug; some cases required hospitalization
- Based on results from animal studies, this drug may negatively affect long-bone growth and dentition in pediatric patients below the age of 4 years
Osteonecrosis of the Jaw
- Bone turnover suppression may increase risk for osteonecrosis of jaw; perform an oral examination prior to initiating therapy; osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), can occur spontaneously and is generally associated with tooth extraction and/or local infection with delayed healing; known risk factors include invasive dental procedures (eg, tooth extraction, dental implants, bone surgery), diagnosis of cancer, concomitant therapies (eg, chemotherapy, corticosteroids, angiogenesis inhibitors), poor oral hygiene, and comorbid disorders; risk of ONJ may increase with duration of therapy
- Good oral hygiene practices should be maintained during treatment; concomitant administration of drugs associated with ONJ may increase risk of developing ONJ; risk of ONJ may increase with duration of exposure to treatment; for patients requiring invasive dental procedures, clinical judgment of treating physician and/or oral surgeon should guide management plan of each patient based on individual benefit-risk assessment
- Patients who are suspected of having or who develop ONJ while on therapy should receive care by a dentist or an oral surgeon; in these patients, extensive dental surgery to treat ONJ may exacerbate condition; consider discontinuing therapy based on individual benefit-risk assessment
Xgeva only
- Clinically significant hypercalcemia requiring hospitalization and complicated by acute renal injury reported in patients with giant cell tumor of bone and patients with growing skeletons; hypercalcemia reported within first year after treatment discontinuation; after treatment is discontinued, monitor for signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia, assess serum calcium periodically, reevaluate patient’s calcium and vitamin D supplementation requirements and manage patients as clinically appropriate
- Based on data from animal studies and its mechanism of action, Xgeva can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman (see Pregnancy)
Prolia only
- Patients on concomitant immunosuppressant agents or with impaired immune systems may be at increased risk for serious infections; consider benefit-risk profile in such patients before treating with Prolia; in patients who develop serious infections while on therapy, prescribers should assess need for continued therapy
- Atypical low energy or low trauma fractures of the shaft reported in patients receiving therapy; these fractures can occur anywhere in femoral shaft from just below lesser trochanter to above supracondylar flare and are transverse or short oblique in orientation without evidence of comminution; causality has not been established as these fractures also occur in osteoporotic patients who have not been treated with antiresorptive agents
- In postmarketing experience, severe and occasionally incapacitating bone, joint, and/or muscle pain has been reported; time to onset of symptoms varied from one day to several months after starting Prolia; consider discontinuing use if severe symptoms develop
- In a large clinical trial which included women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, epidermal and dermal adverse events (eg, dermatitis, eczema, and rashes); most of these events were not specific to the injection
Hypocalcemia
- Hypocalcemia may occur; monitor calcium levels during therapy, especially in the first weeks of initiating therapy, and adequately supplement all patients with calcium and vitamin D
- Hypocalcemia may be exacerbated by therapy with Prolia; correct pre-existing hypocalcemia prior to initiating therapy; in patients predisposed to hypocalcemia and disturbances of mineral metabolism (e.g. history of hypoparathyroidism, thyroid surgery, parathyroid surgery, malabsorption syndromes, excision of small intestine, severe renal impairment [CrCl <30 mL/min] or receiving dialysis), clinical monitor calcium and mineral levels (phosphorus and magnesium) within 14 days of injection; in some postmarketing cases, hypocalcemia persisted for weeks or months and required frequent monitoring and IV and/or oral calcium replacement, with or without vitamin D
- Hypocalcemia is a significant risk in patients with severe renal impairment [CrCl <30 mL/min] or receiving dialysis; dose adjustment not necessary when administered at 60 mg every 6 months; once monthly dosing not evaluated in patients with renal impairment; these patients may also develop marked elevations of serum parathyroid hormone (PTH)
- Concomitant use of calcimimetic drugs may worsen hypocalcemia risk and serum calcium should be closely monitored; Instruct all patients with severe renal impairment, including those receiving dialysis, about symptoms of hypocalcemia and importance of maintaining calcium levels with adequate calcium and vitamin D supplementation
Severe hypocalcemia in patients on dialysis
- On November 22, 2022: FDA is investigating the risk of severe hypocalcemia with serious outcomes, including hospitalization and death, in patients with advanced kidney disease on dialysis treated with Prolia
- Interim results from an ongoing safety study suggests an increased risk of hypocalcemia in patients with advanced kidney disease
- Preliminary results from a separate internal FDA study further investigating hypocalcemia in dialysis patients treated with Prolia show a substantial risk with serious outcomes, including hospitalization and death
- Consider the risks of hypocalcemia with use in patients on dialysis
- If used in these patients, supplement with adequate calcium and vitamin D and consider more frequent blood calcium monitoring
- Advise patients on dialysis to immediately seek help if they experience symptoms of hypocalcemia (eg, unusual tingling or numbness in the hands, arms, legs, or feet; painful muscle spasms or cramps; voice box or lung spasms causing difficulty breathing; vomiting; seizures; or irregular heart rhythm)
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
Prolia: Contraindicated
Xgeva
- Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, denosumab can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman
- In utero exposure in cynomolgus monkeys dosed monthly with denosumab throughout pregnancy at a dose 50-fold higher than the recommended human dose based on body weight resulted in increased fetal loss, stillbirths, and postnatal mortality, and absent lymph nodes, abnormal bone growth, and decreased neonatal growth
- Present at low concentrations (~2% of serum exposure) in seminal fluid of male subjects receiving therapy; following vaginal intercourse, maximum amount of denosumab delivered to a female partner would result in exposures ~11,000 times lower than the prescribed 60 mg subcutaneous dose; male condom use not necessary as it is unlikely that a female partner or fetus would be exposed to pharmacologically relevant concentrations of denosumab via seminal fluid
Pregnancy testing
- Prolia and Xgeva
- Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating treatment
Contraception
- Prolia and Xgeva
- Females: Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during therapy, and for at least 5 months after the last dose of denosumab
- Males: Denosumab was present at low concentrations (~2% of serum exposure) in the seminal fluid of male subjects; condom use would not be necessary as it is unlikely that a female partner or fetus would be exposed to pharmacologically relevant concentrations of denosumab via seminal fluid
Lactation
There is no information regarding presence of denosumab in human milk, effects on breastfed infant, or effects on milk production;
Detected in maternal milk of cynomolgus monkeys up to 1 month after last dose (≤0.5% milk: serum ratio) and maternal mammary gland development was normal, with no impaired lactation; however, pregnant RANKL knockout mice showed altered maturation of maternal mammary gland, leading to impaired lactation
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action
Monoclonal antibody that specifically targets the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL); binds to RANKL and inhibits its binding to RANK receptor, thereby preventing osteoclast formation; this results in decreased bone resorption and increases bone mass in osteoporosis; in solid tumors with bony metastases, RANKL inhibition decreases tumor-induced bone destruction and SREs

It is also used to treat high blood calcium levels (hypercalcemia) that may occur with cancer. It may also be used by adults (and teenagers who have reached their final adult height) to treat a certain disease called giant cell tumor of the bone, if they cannot use surgery to treat the disease.
HOW TO USE: This medication is given by injection under your skin in the upper arm, upper thigh, or abdomen by a healthcare professional as directed by your doctor, usually every 4 weeks. If you are using this medication to treat giant cell tumor of the bone or high blood calcium levels, your doctor may also direct you to receive additional doses once a week during weeks 2 and 3 of the first month of treatment.Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to receive it every 4 weeks. It may help to mark your calendar with a reminder.You may also be instructed to take calcium and vitamin D supplements. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.
SIDE EFFECTS: Tiredness, weakness, headache, back pain, diarrhea, and nausea may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: jaw pain, new or unusual thigh/hip/groin pain, bone/joint/muscle pain, shortness of breath.Denosumab may cause very serious (rarely fatal) low levels of calcium in the blood, especially if you have kidney problems. Take calcium and vitamin D as directed by your doctor. (See also How to Use section.) Get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of low calcium such as: severe muscle spasms/cramps, mental/mood changes (such as irritability or confusion), numbness/tingling (especially around lips/mouth or in fingers/toes), seizures, severe dizziness/fainting, fast/irregular heartbeat.Denosumab can affect your immune system. You may be more likely to get a serious infection, such as a skin, ear, stomach/gut, or bladder infection. Tell your doctor right away if you develop any signs of infection, such as: fever/chills, red/swollen/tender/warm skin (with or without pus), severe abdominal pain, ear pain/discharge, trouble hearing, frequent/painful/burning urination, pink/bloody urine.Denosumab can cause skin problems such as dryness, peeling, redness, itching, small bumps/patches, or blisters. However, you may not be able to tell it apart from a rare rash that could be a sign of a severe allergic reaction. Get medical help right away if you develop any rash or if any of these symptoms last or get worse.Denosumab may cause high levels of calcium in the blood weeks to months after treatment has stopped, especially if you have not reached your final adult height. Tell your doctor right away if you have any symptoms of high calcium after you have stopped using denosumab such as: nausea, vomiting, headache, unusual tiredness.After your treatment with denosumab is stopped, you may be at increased risk for bone fractures in your spine. This risk is greater if you have bone loss (osteoporosis) or have had broken bones.
