Brief Summary:
The goal of the study is to characterize the effect of Prolia® (denosumab) on indices of bone strength in type 2 diabetes (T2D). The investigational plan involves administration of Prolia® or identical placebo for 12 months as a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial in 66 T2D postmenopausal women assigned to Prolia® or placebo. The study will include assessment of different measures of bone quality: skeletal microarchitecture, including measurement of skeletal cortical pores; bone mineral density; bone material quality, and accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) in collagen. This information will help to determine whether Prolia® treatment in type 2 diabetes has skeletal benefits.
Detailed Description:
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) has become one of the most important diseases of our time. Recent research shows that diabetes has negative effects on bones and that people with diabetes might be more likely to break a bone. We don't know the reasons for this, but we suspect that normal bone replacement is slowed down in diabetes and this could slow down the growth of new bone. It is possible that the normal bone material becomes weaker because sugar-related components ("Advanced Glycation Endproducts") are making the bone more brittle. The investigators have shown in past research that people who have type 2 diabetes are more likely to have both weaker bone with lower "bone material strength" and also higher levels of sugar-related components ("Advanced Glycation Endproducts"). This study will focus on attempting to lower the sugar-related components ("Advanced Glycation Endproducts") by treating a group of patients with type 2 diabetes with a medication Prolia® or denosumab for one year. The investigators will compare postmenopausal women both before and after denosumab use and study them in terms of different bone features based on blood tests, bone imaging, a bone indentation test and a measurement of sugar-related components in the skin. This study will help to clarify if using this medication helps improve bone strength in women with diabetes.
