Serological biomarker profiles of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis in tanezumab-treated patients
There is a need for efficacious and safe pain treatments for OA (osteoarthritis). The nerve growth factor (NGF) antibody tanezumab is associated with high efficacy, but when combined with chronic NSAID treatment shows an increased risk of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis (RPOA) in a small group of...

Summary: | There is a need for efficacious and safe pain treatments for OA (osteoarthritis). The nerve growth factor (NGF) antibody tanezumab is associated with high efficacy, but when combined with chronic NSAID treatment shows an increased risk of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis (RPOA) in a small group of patients.
The aim of this study was to phenotype with biochemical biomarkers of bone, cartilage, soft tissue, synovial metabolism OA patients who are at risk of developing RPOA type-2, for both limited and chronic NSAIDs users.
The dataset consisted of OA patients participating in tanezumab trials who used NSAIDs |
