Kidney Function Change and All-Cause Mortality in Denosumab Users with and without Chronic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT: Denosumab is approved for osteoporosis treatment in subjects with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD). Confirmation is required for its safety, treatment adherence, renal function effect, and mortality in patients with CKD. A retrospective cohort study was conducted to compare new users of denosumab in terms of their two-year drug adherence in all participants (overall cohort) and CKD participants (CKD subcohort), which was defined as baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. The eGFR was calculated using the 2021 CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equation. We defined high adherence (HA) users as receiving three or four doses and low adherence (LA) users as receiving one or two doses. All-cause mortality was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression models. In total, there were 1142 subjects in the overall cohort and 500 subjects in the CKD subcohort. HA users had better renal function status at baseline than LD users in the overall cohort. A decline in renal function was only observed among LD users in the overall cohort. In the CKD subcohort, no baseline renal function difference or renal function decline was demonstrated. The all-cause mortality rate of HA users was lower than LA users in both the overall cohort and CKD. A randomized control trial is warranted to target this unique population to confirm our observations.

Project description:BackgroundHypothyroidism and low free triiodothyronine (FT3) syndrome [low FT3 levels with normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)] have been associated with reduced kidney function cross-sectionally in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with severely reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Results on the prospective effects of impaired thyroid function on renal events and mortality for patients with severely reduced eGFR or from population-based cohorts are conflicting. Here we evaluated the association between thyroid and kidney function with eGFR (cross-sectionally) as well as renal events and mortality (prospectively) in a large, prospective cohort of CKD patients with mild to moderately reduced kidney function.MethodsThyroid markers were measured among CKD patients from the German Chronic Kidney Disease study. Incident renal endpoints (combined ESKD, acute kidney injury and renal death) and all-cause mortality were abstracted from hospital records and death certificates. Time to first event analysis of complete data from baseline to the 4-year follow-up (median follow-up time 4.04 years) of 4600 patients was conducted. Multivariable linear regression and Cox proportional hazards models were fitted for single and combined continuous thyroid markers [TSH, free thyroxine (FT4), FT3] and thyroid status.ResultsCross-sectionally, the presence of low-FT3 syndrome showed a significant inverse association with eGFR and continuous FT3 levels alone showed a significant positive association with eGFR; in combination with FT4 and TSH, FT3 levels also showed a positive association and FT4 levels showed a negative association with eGFR. Prospectively, higher FT4 and lower FT3 levels were significantly associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (N events = 297). Per picomole per litre higher FT3 levels the risk of reaching the composite renal endpoint was 0.73-fold lower (95% confidence interval 0.65-0.82; N events = 615). Compared with euthyroid patients, patients with low-FT3 syndrome had a 2.2-fold higher risk and patients with hypothyroidism had a 1.6-fold higher risk of experiencing the composite renal endpoint.ConclusionsPatients with mild to moderate CKD suffering from thyroid function abnormalities are at an increased risk of adverse renal events and all-cause mortality over time.
