Endocrinologic and Metabolic Advisory Committee July 27, 2001 4 Principal outcomes PIVOTAL CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIALS: GHAC clearly established efficacy in reducing fracture risk (and in increasing BMD) in postmenopausal osteoporosis. GHAJ established efficacy in increasing spinal BMD in men with osteoporosis. For both men and women, beneficial effects at spine appeared to exceed those of any approved agent. Meet efficacy criteria for osteoporosis drugs. PIVOTAL CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIALS: GHAC clearly established efficacy in reducing fracture risk (and in increasing BMD) in postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Secondary BMD endpoints (8 other sites): –For PTH 20 g: significant at femoral neck only. –For PTH 40 g: greater effects; significant at total hip, femoral neck, intertrochanter, Ward’s triangle and whole body. Other secondary endpoints: results similar to GHAC. Primary endpoint: lumbar spine BMD –Highly significant increases compared to placebo for both doses (40 g > 20 g).

Endocrinologic and Metabolic Advisory Committee July 27, 2001 16 Teriparatide: Clinical Efficacy Summary In postmenopausal osteoporotic women: Teriparatide 20 g is highly effective in increasing lumbar spine BMD (and BMD at other sites) and in reducing risk of morphometric vertebral fractures. The drug is effective in preventing non-vertebral fractures combined, but the data are not as robust as in the spine. The 20 g dose is as effective as 40 g in reducing the risk of fractures. The drug did not prevent height loss.

Endocrinologic and Metabolic Advisory Committee July 27, 2001 17 Teriparatide: Clinical Efficacy Summary In men with primary osteoporosis (with or without primary hypogonadism): Teriparatide 20 g is highly effective in increasing lumbar spine BMD, but is either ineffective, or only marginally effective, in increasing BMD at other skeletal sites. The 40 g dose was substantially more effective than 20 g at nearly all skeletal sites. The drug did not prevent height loss. There are no fracture efficacy data from GHAJ or from any other randomized controlled clinical trials in men.
