NICE and NOGG recommendations

NICE 2022 recommendation5

EVENITY is recommended as an option for treating severe osteoporosis in people after menopause who are at high risk of fracture, only if:

  • They have had a major osteoporotic fracture (spine, hip, forearm or humerus fracture) within 24 months (so are at imminent risk of another fracture)
AND
  • The company provides EVENITY according to the commercial arrangement

NOGG/ROS Advisory statement on the prioritisation of romosozumab in clinical practice6

Referral for, and consideration of treatment with EVENITY, is prioritised in postmenopausal women who have had a MOF within 24 months, with any one of the following:

  • A BMD T-Score ≤-3.5 (at the hip or spine)
OR
  • A BMD T-score ≤-2.5 (at the hip or spine
AND EITHER
  • Vertebral fractures (either a vertebral fracture within 24 months or a history of ≥2 osteoporotic vertebral fractures)
OR
  • Very high fracture risk (e.g., as quantified by FRAX)

Following the approved duration of treatment with EVENITY (12 months), treatment with alendronate, zoledronate or denosumab should be initiated without delay.

*Differences in BMD cannot be related to reductions in the risk of fractures.

Superior fracture risk reduction

when used for 12 months followed by alendronate vs alendronate alone:

 

  • 8.0% vs 4.1% for new vertebral fractures at 24 months (p<0.001)1,7

  • 13.0% vs 9.7% for clinical fracture (p<0.001), 10.6% vs 8.7% for non-vertebral fracture (p=0.04), and 3.2% vs 2.0% for hip fracture (p=0.02) at primary analysis (median 33 months)1,7
