Description


Uses

Prolia (Denosumab) is used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis, loss of bone mass in women receiving aromatase inhibitor therapy for breast cancer, and in men with prostate cancer receiving hormone adjuvant therapy.

Denosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody (IgG2), which has high affinity and specificity for the ligand of the nuclear factor activator receptor κB (RANKL), and thus prevents the activation of a single receptor RANKL - the nuclear factor activator κB (RANK) located on the surface of osteoclasts and their predecessors. Thus, preventing the interaction of RANKL / RANK inhibits the formation, activation and longevity of osteoclasts. As a result, denosumab reduces bone resorption and increases the mass and strength of the cortical and trabecular bone layers.
