Abstract 1785P
Background
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is associated with increased fracture risk, due to bone loss and bone quality impairment, as well as with profound alterations in body composition favoring the transition to sarcopenic obesity. Additional metabolic effects of next generation hormonal agents (NGHA) in combination with ADT have been poorly studied.
Methods
BonEnza (NCT03336983) is a prospective phase II trial in which mHSPC patients were randomized to receive either ADT plus enzalutamide (E arm) or the same combination with the addition of zoledronic acid (EZ arm). Bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone score (TBS), fat body mass (FBM) and lean body mass (LBM) were assessed at baseline and after 18 months using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan.
Results
From February 2018 to December 2022, a total of 89 patients (46 from EZ arm and 43 from E arm), had paired DEXA evaluation at both timepoints. Femoral BMD and TBS significantly reduced in E arm (-9.1%, p<0.001; -3.1%, p=0.001, respectively), while they increased in EZ arm (5.3%, p<0.001; 2.8%, p=0.008, respectively). FBM increased by 22.7% (p<0.001) and LBM decreased by 6.3% (p<0.001) after 18 months of therapy, irrespective of study arm.
Conclusions
The addition of enzalutamide to ADT is associated with a marked reduction in BMD and impaired bone quality as measured by TBS. Both effects are prevented by zoledronic acid administration. The reduction in LBM and increase in FBM were doubled compared to previous observations with ADT alone, putting patients at an elevated risk of sarcopenic obesity.
