- Brief Summary
Degenerative lumbar spinal diseases have become a common health problem and the most frequent indication for spinal surgery in elderly individuals. It mainly contain lumbar spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis, occurs in most people over 60 years of age, and patients primarily diagnosed with lumbar degenerative disease are more likely to have osteoporosis. Our study was to explore denosumab effect on bone quality and functional status in osteopenia patients with lumbar degenerative diseases after lumbar fusion surgery.
- Detailed Description
However, It was still unknown for denosumab effect on osteopenia patients after lumbar fusion. Bone mineral density(BMD), bone turnover marker, lumbar functional status Roland-Morris Disability Functioning Questionnaire (RMDQ) and quality of life EuroQol Five-Dimension (EQ-5D), and Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis-31 (QUALEFFO-31) score, rate of new fracture, re-operation, lumbar fusion, complications or adverse events were still unknown. Our study will explore the effect of denosumab on lumbar, total hip, femoral neck BMD and bone turnover markers, functional status EQ-5D, QUALEFFO-31 and RMDQ score of participants after lumbar fusion at 12 months follow-up.

Group Intervention Description Placebo Placebo Equal volume of saline (0.9%) as placebo were injected subcutaneously Q6M on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all patients received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D. Denosumab Denosumab Denosumab 60 mg were injected subcutaneously Q6M on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all patients received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Type 1 n-terminal propeptide P1NP up to 12 months Bone formation marker, type 1 n-terminal propeptide P1NP were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
Lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) up to 12 months Lumbar vertebral (L1 to L4, except the surgery segment) BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
Total hip BMD up to 12 months Total hip BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
Femoral neck BMD up to 12 months Femoral neck BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
C-terminal crosslinking type 1 collagen terminal peptide CTX up to 12 months Bone resorption marker, C-terminal crosslinked type 1 collagen terminal peptide, CTX were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
Visual analog scale (VAS) back up to 12 months VAS score for back pain were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months. Use a ruler about 10cm long, one side is marked with "0" and the other "10" respectively. A score of 0 indicates no pain, 10 indicates the most unbearable pain.
VAS leg up to 12 months VAS score for leg pain were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months. Use a ruler about 10cm long, one side is marked with "0" and the other "10" respectively. A score of 0 indicates no pain, 10 indicates the most unbearable pain
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Lumbar Fusion rate up to 12 month We determined lumbar fusion rate via CT at 12 month after surgery.The lowest rate is 0, the highest 100%. The higher the score represents higher fusion rate.
Reoperation rate up to 12 month Reoperation rate was assessed at 12 month after surgery. The lowest reoperation rate was 0, the highest score was 100%.
Complications up to 12 month Complications such as cage subsidence, pedicle screw loosening, infection, peripheral nerve injury, recurrent symptoms were assessed at 12 months follow-up.
QUALEFFO-31 Questionnaire up to 12 month QUALEFFO-31, which contains three domains including pain, physical function, and mental function. The worse the health related quality of life condition, the higher the score. This scale is assessed on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 indicating the highest QoL and 100 the lowest.
EQ-5D quality of life questionnaire up to 12 month EQ-5D descriptive system is a preference-based quality of life measure with one question for each of the five dimensions that include mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. From this, a quality of life score can be calculated ranging from -0.594, indicating a health state worse than death where 0 is death, to 1, indicating full health
Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire up to 12 month The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire is a health status measure designed to be completed by patients to assess physical disability due to low back pain. The lowest score is 0, the highest 24. The higher the score, the more severe the dysfunction.
New fracture rate up to 12 month New fracture rate including new vertebral fracture and non-vertebral fracture was assessed at 12 month after surgery. The lowest score was 0, the highest score was 100%. The lower score represents no fracture.
Adverse effect up to 12 month The main adverse effect including deep vein thrombosis, rash, joint pain, headache, nausea, pneumonia, necrosis of jaw, atypical femoral fracture, pulmonary embolism, transfer to intensive care unit (ICU), stroke, acute renal failure, myocardial infarction and so on.
