The recognition of the importance of the Wnt-signaling pathway in bone metabolism
and studies of patients with rare skeletal disorders characterized by high bone
mass identified sclerostin as target for the development of new therapeutics for
osteoporosis. Findings in animals and humans with sclerostin deficiency as well
as results of preclinical and early clinical studies with sclerostin inhibitors
demonstrated a new treatment paradigm with a bone building agent for the
management of patients with osteoporosis, the antifracture efficacy, and
long-term tolerability of which remain to be established in on-going phase III
clinical studies. In this article we review the currently available preclinical
and clinical evidence supporting the use of sclerostin inhibitors in
osteoporosis.
