BACKGROUND: Large bone defects are challenging to manage clinically and usually require treatment with bone graft or bone graft substitute. This study evaluated the effect of romosozumab, a sclerostin antibody, in combination with demineralized bone matrix (DBM) on bone regeneration in a critical-size ulnar defect model in nonhuman primates.
METHODS: In cynomolgus monkeys (N = 22, male, 10-12 years old), a full-cortex bone defect (0.5 cm long) was created in the left ulnar shaft and filled with DBM. Animals were randomized to receive vehicle (n = 10) or romosozumab (n = 12; 30 mg/kg) subcutaneously, every 2 weeks for 28 weeks. Radiographs of the left ulna were taken every 2 weeks for 28 weeks to monitor bone regeneration response. Ulnae were excised and analyzed by ex-vivo x-ray and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) to evaluate bone repair, and lumbar vertebrae were excised for bone histomorphometric analysis to evaluate the systemic anabolic response.
RESULTS: In-vivo and ex-vivo x-ray images of surgical ulnae demonstrated that the critical-size ulnar defect fully bridged in 3 romosozumab-treated monkeys at week 28 but not in any vehicle-treated monkey. Micro-CT analysis demonstrated that average new bone volume and new bone area within the defect region were 118 % and 105 % greater, respectively, with romosozumab versus vehicle. Trabecular bone volume per tissue volume and trabecular thickness of lumbar vertebral body were 72 % and 92 % greater, and eroded surface was significantly lower with romosozumab versus vehicle.
CONCLUSION: High-dose romosozumab in combination with DBM improved bone regeneration in a critical-size ulnar defect model and increased bone mass in non-surgical bone in nonhuman primates.
THE TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL OF THIS ARTICLE: Clinical management of large bone defect is complex and challenging. More effective management is needed. This paper reports the first nonhuman primate study that evaluated high-dose romosozumab in combination with demineralized bone matrix in a critical-size defect model and provides perspective for the future research evaluating the combination of romosozumab and bone graft or bone graft substitutes in various relevant clinical conditions.
