This study aimed to investigate the long-term safety and effectiveness of denosumab in Japanese patients with osteoporosis in daily clinical practice.  \nMaterials and methods This 3-year, prospective, observational, post-marketing study included patients who initiated treatment with denosumab (60 mg/6 months) for osteoporosis. Data were assessed at baseline, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. Key endpoints were adverse events (AEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), occurrence of osteoporotic fractures, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone turnover markers. Multivariate analyses were conducted to identify predictors of hypocalcaemia and percent change in BMD.  \nResults Overall, 3534 patients were assessed (mean 75.7 years; 89.8% women). In total, 298 patients (8.4%) developed ADRs; the most common was hypocalcaemia (3.9%) . Hypocalcaemia risk was significantly increased in patients with creatinine clearance \u003C 30 mL/min, no prior use ofbisphosphonates, prior use of calcium and vitamin D preparations, baseline serum calcium \u003C 8.5 mg/dL, and no concomitant use of calcium or vitamin D preparations. Six patients had adjudicated osteonecrosis of the jaw. Lumbar spine BMD increased significantly from baseline (mean percent change: 11.4% at 36 months) . All bone turnover markers decreased significantly from baseline. Over 3 years, 3.3% of patients developed a new osteoporotic fracture. Conclusions This study confirmed the long-term safety and effectiveness of denosumab in Japanese patients with osteoporosis in daily clinical practice. No new safety signals were identified.  \nKeywords Denosumab · Hypocalcaemia · Japanese · Osteoporosis · Real-world survey  \nIntroduction  \nOsteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and abnormal bone microstructure, which results in bone fragility and increased risk of fracture [1–3] .  \nElectronic supplementary material The online version of this article ([https://doi.org/10.1007/s00774-020-01180-4](https://doi.org/10.1007/s00774-020-01180-4)) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.  \n* Hideki Mizutani [mizutani.hideki.m5@daiichisankyo.co.jp](mizutani.hideki.m5@daiichisankyo.co.jp)  \n1 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1, Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan  \n2 Post Marketing Study Department, Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd., 3-5-1, Nihonbashi Honcho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 103-8426, Japan  \n3 Biostatistics and Data Management Department, Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan  \nThe changes to bone microarchitecture in osteoporosis are insidious and asymptomatic, so many patients are not diagnosed until they develop a fracture [3]. Once patients experience a fracture, it can have a major effect on their daily life, quality of life (QoL), ability to live independently, and their prognosis [4, 5] .  \nAn estimated 12–15 million people in Japan have osteoporosis, and ~ 150,000 people develop a new osteoporotic fracture each year [2, 6, 7] . Therefore, Japanese guidelines for the management of osteoporosis define fracture prevention as the key goal of osteoporosis treatment.  \nDenosumab (Pralia®) is a humanized IgG2 monoclonal antibody that was approved for treatment of osteoporosis in Japan in 2013.
