Effects of infliximab on markers of inflammation and bone turnover and associations with bone mineral density in patients with ankylosing spondylitis

Objectives:To evaluate the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and biomarkers of bone turnover and inflammation in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) treated with infliximab.Methods:Patients (n = 279) were randomly assigned (3:8) to receive placebo or 5 mg/kg infliximab every 6 we...

description Objectives:To evaluate the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and biomarkers of bone turnover and inflammation in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) treated with infliximab.Methods:Patients (n = 279) were randomly assigned (3:8) to receive placebo or 5 mg/kg infliximab every 6 weeks through week 96. At week 24, placebo-treated patients crossed over to infliximab 5 mg/kg. Starting at week 36, patients treated with infliximab received dose escalations to 7.5 mg/kg. Hip and spine BMD were measured (baseline, week 24, week 102) using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Sera were analysed (baseline, week 24, week 102) for levels of bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteocalcin, C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX), interleukin-6 (IL-6), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor-β.Results:Patients treated with infliximab showed significantly greater median increases in BMD of the spine (2.5%, p

Baseline levels of IL-6, VEGF, osteocalcin, BAP and CTX were significantly correlated with increases in spinal BMD at weeks 24 and 102 in the infliximab group. In a multiple regression analysis, high baseline osteocalcin levels and early increases in BAP at week 2 were significantly associated with increases in BMD scores of the spine (week 102) and hip (weeks 24 and 102) in the infliximab group.Conclusions:Patients with AS who received infliximab showed significant increases in BMD scores over 2 years. While many significant correlations were observed between BMD scores of the hip and spine and biomarker levels, high baseline osteocalcin levels and early increases in BAP were consistently associated with increases in BMD scores.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0003-4967</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1468-2060</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1136/ard.2007.084426</identifier><identifier>PMID: 18495735</identifier><identifier>CODEN: ARDIAO</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>London: BMJ Publishing Group Ltd and European League Against Rheumatism</publisher><subject>Absorptiometry, Photon ; Adult ; Aged ; Aged, 80 and over ; Alkaline Phosphatase - blood ; Antibodies, Monoclonal - pharmacology ; Antibodies, Monoclonal - therapeutic use ; Antirheumatic Agents - pharmacology ; Antirheumatic Agents - therapeutic use ; Biological and medical sciences ; Biomarkers ; Biomarkers - blood ; Bone density ; Bone Density - drug effects ; Bone Remodeling - drug effects ; Cervical Vertebrae - physiopathology ; Clinical and Epidemiological Research ; Diseases of the osteoarticular system ; Female ; Fundamental and applied biological sciences.
