INDICATIONS STOBOCLO® (denosumab-bmwo) is a RANK ligand (RANKL) inhibitor indicated for treatment: of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture to increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture or in men at high risk for fracture receiving androgen deprivation therapy for nonmetastatic prostate cancer of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in men and women at high risk for fracture to increase bone mass in women at high risk for fracture receiving an adjuvant aromatase inhibitor therapy for breast cancer to increase bone mass in women at high risk for fracture receiving an adjuvant aromatase inhibitor therapy for breast cancer IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING: SEVERE HYPOCALCEMIA IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED KIDNEY DISEASE Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease, including those on dialysis, face a higher risk of severe hypocalcemia after denosumab administration, with reported cases leading to hospitalization, life-threatening events, and fatalities. The presence of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) markedly increases the risk of hypocalcemia in these patients Before starting STOBOCLO® (denosumab-bmwo) in advanced chronic kidney disease patients, assess for CKD-MBD. Treatment should be supervised by a healthcare provider experienced in diagnosing and managing CKD-MBD. STOBOCLO is contraindicated in hypocalcemia, pregnant women, and in patients with known hypersensitivity to denosumab. Severe Hypocalcemia: Ensure adequate calcium and vitamin D; monitor for severe hypocalcemia. Drug Products with Same Active Ingredient: Do not use with other denosumab products. Hypersensitivity: If an anaphylactic or other clinically significant allergic reaction occurs, initiate appropriate therapy and discontinue further use of STOBOCLO. Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ): ONJ can occur in patients on STOBOCLO. Conduct oral exams before treatment; maintain oral hygiene; consider discontinuation of STOBOCLO if ONJ develops. Atypical Subtrochanteric and Diaphyseal Femoral Fractures: Monitor for thigh, hip, or groin pain; evaluate for fractures. Interruption of STOBOCLO therapy should be considered, pending a benefit-risk assessment, on an individual basis. Multiple Vertebral Fractures (MVF) Following Discontinuation of Treatment: Increased risk post-discontinuation of denosumab; transition to alternative therapy if discontinuing STOBOCLO. Serious Infections: Higher risk in denosumab users; assess benefit-risk profile, especially in immunocompromised patients. Assess the benefit-risk profile before starting STOBOCLO and reconsider its use if serious infections develop. Dermatologic Adverse Reactions: Consider discontinuing STOBOCLO if severe dermatitis, eczema, or rashes occur. Musculoskeletal Pain: Consider discontinuation of STOBOCLO if severe pain develops. Bone Turnover Suppression: In clinical trials in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, denosumab significantly suppressed bone remodelling; patients should be monitored for these outcomes. Hypercalcemia in Pediatrics Patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Not for pediatric use; hypercalcemia reported in patients osteogenesis imperfecta treated with denosumab products. Most common Adverse Reactions: In (>5%) of patients with: Postmenopausal osteoporosis were back pain, pain in extremity, hypercholesterolemia, musculoskeletal pain, and cystitis. Pancreatitis has been reported in clinical trials. Male osteoporosis were back pain, arthralgia, and nasopharyngitis. Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (> 3%) were back pain, hypertension, bronchitis, and headache. Bone loss due to hormone ablation for cancer (≥ 10%) were arthralgia and back pain. Pain in extremity and musculoskeletal pain have also been reported in clinical trials. Bone loss due to hormone ablation for cancer (≥ 10%) were arthralgia and back pain. Pain in extremity and musculoskeletal pain have also been reported in clinical trials. For more information, see Full Prescribing Information.

Patients receiving OSENVELT should not receive other denosumab products concomitantly. Hypersensitivity. If an anaphylactic or other clinically significant allergic reaction occurs, initiate appropriate therapy and discontinue further use of OSENVELT. Hypocalcemia. Severe hypocalcemia can occur, and fatal cases have been reported. Monitor calcium levels and calcium and vitamin D intake. Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ): ONJ can occur in patients on OSENVELT.

Atypical Subtrochanteric and Diaphyseal Femoral Fractures: Monitor for thigh, hip, or groin pain; evaluate for fractures. Interruption of OSENVELT therapy should be considered, pending a benefit-risk assessment, on an individual basis. Hypercalcemia Following Treatment Discontinuation in Patients with Giant Cell Tumor of Bone and in Patients with Growing Skeletons. Clinically significant hypercalcemia, potentially requiring hospitalization, can occur within a year after stopping denosumab in patients with giant cell tumor of bone or growing skeletons; monitor serum calcium and manage calcium and vitamin D needs post-discontinuation. Multiple Vertebral Fractures (MVF) Following Treatment Discontinuation. Increased risk post-discontinuation of denosumab; evaluate for risk for vertebral fractures after discontinuing OSENVELT. Embryo-Fetal Toxicity. Denosumab may cause fetal harm; verify pregnancy status before starting OSENVELT and advise effective contraception during treatment and for 5 months after the last dose. Most common Adverse Reactions: Bone Metastasis from Solid Tumors (≥ 25%) were fatigue/asthenia, hypophosphatemia, and nausea. In patients (≥ 10%) with: Multiple Myeloma were diarrhea, nausea, anemia, back pain, thrombocytopenia, peripheral edema, hypocalcemia, upper respiratory tract infection, rash, and headache; Giant Cell Tumor of Bone were arthralgia, headache, nausea, back pain, fatigue, and pain in extremity.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a new presentation of Celltrion’s SteQeyma, an ustekinumab biosimilar referencing Johnson & Johnson’s Stelara, to treat paediatric patients with plaque psoriasis (PsO) or psoriatic arthritis (PsA). The drug is now authorised as a 45mg/0.5ml solution in a single-dose vial for subcutaneous injection in patients aged six to 17 years who weigh less than 60kg. It is hoped that the approval, which means that SteQeyma now offers all dosage forms and strengths of its reference product, will help meet physicians’ clinical needs and support treatment continuity for patients. Approximately 125 million people worldwide are affected by some form of psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory condition that typically affects the skin, nails and joints. PsO occurs in up to 90% of psoriasis patients and is characterised by distinct round or oval plaques that are usually covered by silvery-white scales. PsA, which causes joint pain, swelling and stiffness, is less common, affecting around 30% of psoriasis patients. The FDA’s decision comes six months after it approved SteQeyma 45mg/0.5ml and 90mg/ml in a single-dose prefilled syringe for subcutaneous injection, and SteQeyma 130mg/26ml in a single-dose vial for intravenous infusion. The December authorisation applied to adult and paediatric patients aged six years and older with PsO and PsA, as well as adults with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Among the evidence supporting the regulator’s latest approval of SteQeyma were positive results from a phase 3 study in adults with moderate-to-severe PsO, in which Celltrion’s biosimilar and Stelara showed no clinically meaningful differences in terms of safety and efficacy. Hetal Patel, vice president of medical affairs at Celltrion USA, said: “Managing inflammatory diseases in paediatric patients can be particularly complex. “The new dosage form and strength of SteQeyma allow us to better meet the specific needs of young patients, giving physicians a valuable treatment option with flexibility, supported by a well-established safety and efficacy profile.” Celltrion outlined that the FDA has also granted SteQeyma full interchangeability across all indications of Stelara, “following the expiration of exclusivity for the first interchangeable biosimilar on 30 April 2025”.
