Further study details as provided by Amgen:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Safety profile of denosumab characterized in terms of the type, frequency, and severity of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities for each cohort. [ Time Frame: Duration of treatment and every 6 months for up to one year post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Proportion of subjects able to undergo limb or joint sparing (eg, curettage) surgical procedures [ Time Frame: Six months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 100
Study Start Date: June 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: October 2013
Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Denosumab: Experimental
120 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) every 4 weeks (Q4W) with a loading dose of 120 mg SC on study days 8 and 15.
Drug: Denosumab
120 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) every 4 weeks (Q4W) with a loading dose of 120 mg SC on study days 8 and 15.

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   12 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both

Criteria

Key inclusion criteria:

  • Pathologically confirmed giant cell tumor of bone within 1 year before study enrollment
  • Measurable evidence of active disease within 1 year before study enrollment
  • Subjects with surgically unsalvageable disease (eg, sacral, spinal GCT, or multiple lesions including pulmonary metastases) OR subjects whose planned initial surgery includes joint resection, limb amputation, hemipelvectomy or surgical procedure resulting in severe morbidity, other than curettage with complete resection of tumor
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 50% (ie, ECOG status 0, 1, or 2)
  • Adults or skeletally mature adolescents (ie, radiographic evidence of at least 1 mature long bone [eg, humerus with closed growth epiphyseal plate])

    • 12 years of age
  • Skeletally mature adolescents must weigh at least 45 kg
  • Before any study-specific procedure is performed, the appropriate written informed consent must be obtained

Key exclusion criteria:

  • Currently receiving other GCT specific treatment (eg, radiation, chemotherapy, or embolization)
  • Concurrent bisphosphonate treatment
  • Known or suspected current diagnosis of underlying malignancy including high-grade sarcoma, osteosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, malignant giant cell sarcoma
  • Known or suspected current diagnosis of non GCT giant cell-rich tumors
  • Known or suspected current diagnosis of brown cell tumor of bone
  • Known diagnosis of second malignancy within the past 5 years
  • Prior history or current evidence of osteonecrosis/osteomyelitis of the jaw
  • Active dental or jaw condition which requires oral surgery
  • Non-healed dental/oral surgery
  • Planned invasive dental procedure for the course of the study
  • Women or men unwilling to use adequate contraceptive measures
  • Women of child-bearing potential are evidently pregnant (eg, positive HCG test) or breast feeding
  • Subject currently is enrolled in or has not yet completed at least 30 days since ending other investigational device or drug study(s), or subject is receiving other investigational agent(s)
  • Subject has known sensitivity to any of the products to be administered during dosing
  • Subject has any kind of disorder that compromises the ability of the subject to give written informed consent and/or to comply with study procedures
