Formulation
This biosimilar antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added. Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration.
State of Matter
Liquid
Product Preparation
Recombinant biosimilar antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using only in vitro protein free cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates.
Storage and Handling
Functional grade biosimilar antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at -80°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change.

Description

Description

Specificity
Denosumab activity is directed against human RANKL (receptor activator of NFκB ligand).
Background
Osteoporosis is a disease of bone microarchitecture deterioration commonly seen in postmenopausal women1. Estrogen deficiency leads to low bone mass and increased bone fragility due to bone resorption increasing more than formation. Those affected have an increased risk of fracture. RANKL (receptor activator of NFκB ligand) is a TNF family member that acts as a key bone resorption protein by mediating osteoclast formation, activation, and survival via activating its receptor RANK1,2.

Denosumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody originally generated using transgenic Xenomouse technology, selectively and with high affinity binds to and inhibits human RANKL, thus preventing interaction with and activation of its receptor RANK on the surface of osteoclasts and their precursors2. This blocking activity inhibits the formation, function, and survival of osteoclasts, resulting in reduced bone resorption and consequently reduces the risk of vertebral, nonvertebral and hip fractures. Denosumab increases bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular and cortical bone strength, with continued antifracture and BMD benefits over 10 years of therapy. Bone resorption is inhibited in cynomolgus monkeys and humans, but not normal mice or rats.

Unlike bisphosphonates, denosumab is not incorporated into bone and its effects on bone turnover markers, BMD and histomorphometric measures are generally reversed upon its discontinuation1.
Antigen Distribution
RANKL binds to its receptor RANK, which is located on osteoclasts and osteoclast precursors.
