In postmenopausal women receiving combination parathyroid hormone (PTH) (1-84) therapy and ibandronate, we evaluated bone microarchitecture and biomechanics using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). Cortical and trabecular changes were different at the nonweight-bearing radius vs. the weight-bearing tibia, with more favorable overall changes at the tibia. Introduction PTH therapy and bisphosphonates decrease fracture risk in postmenopausal osteoporosis, but their effects on bone microstructure and strength have not been fully characterized, particularly during combination therapy. PTH increases trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) substantially but may decrease cortical BMD, possibly by stimulating intracortical remodeling. We evaluated bone microarchitecture and biomechanics with HR-pQCT at the radius (a nonweight-bearing site) and tibia (weight bearing) in women receiving combination PTH(1-84) and ibandronate. Methods Postmenopausal women with low bonemass (n=43) were treated with 6 months of PTH(1-84) (100 mu g/day), either as one 6- or two 3-month courses, in combination with ibandronate (150 mg/month) over 2 years. HR-pQCT was performed before and after therapy. Results Because changes in HR-pQCT parameters did not differ between treatment arms, groups were pooled into one cohort for analysis. Trabecular BMD increased at both radius and tibia (p<0.01 for each). Cortical thickness and BMD decreased at the radius (p<0.01), consistent with changes in dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, while these parameters did not change at the tibia (p=0.02 for difference between radius and tibia). In contrast, cortical porosity increased at the tibia (p<0.01) but not radius. Stiffness and failure load decreased at the radius (p<0.0001) but did not change at the tibia. Conclusions Cortical and trabecular changes in response to the PTH/ibandronate treatment combinations utilized in this study were different at the nonweight-bearing radius vs. the weight-bearing tibia, with more favorable overall changes at the tibia. Our findings support the possibility that weight bearing may optimize the effects of osteoporosis therapy.
