Brief Summary
Degenerative lumbar spinal diseases have become a common health problem and the most frequent indication for spinal surgery in elderly individuals. It mainly contain lumbar spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis, occurs in most people over 60 years of age, and patients primarily diagnosed with lumbar degenerative disease are more likely to have osteoporosis. Our study was to explore denosumab effect on bone quality and functional status in osteopenia patients with lumbar degenerative diseases after lumbar fusion surgery.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (7)
Lumbar bone mineral density (BMD)
Lumbar vertebral (L1 to L4, except the surgery segment) BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
up to 12 months
Total hip BMD
Total hip BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
up to 12 months
Femoral neck BMD
Femoral neck BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via Dual-energy X-ray.
up to 12 months
Type 1 n-terminal propeptide P1NP
Bone formation marker, type 1 n-terminal propeptide P1NP were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
up to 12 months
C-terminal crosslinking type 1 collagen terminal peptide CTX
Bone resorption marker, C-terminal crosslinked type 1 collagen terminal peptide, CTX were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
up to 12 months
Visual analog scale (VAS) back
VAS score for back pain were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months. Use a ruler about 10cm long, one side is marked with "0" and the other "10" respectively. A score of 0 indicates no pain, 10 indicates the most unbearable pain.
up to 12 months
VAS leg
VAS score for leg pain were assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months. Use a ruler about 10cm long, one side is marked with "0" and the other "10" respectively. A score of 0 indicates no pain, 10 indicates the most unbearable pain
up to 12 months
Secondary Outcomes (8)
EQ-5D quality of life questionnaire
up to 12 month
Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire
up to 12 month
QUALEFFO-31 Questionnaire
up to 12 month
Lumbar Fusion rate
up to 12 month
New fracture rate

Study Arms (2)
Denosumab
EXPERIMENTALDenosumab 60 mg were injected subcutaneously Q6M on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all patients received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D.
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATOREqual volume of saline (0.9%) as placebo were injected subcutaneously Q6M on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all patients received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D.
Interventions
Denosumab 60 mg per 6 month were injected subcutaneously on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all participants received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D.
Equal volume of saline (0.9%) as placebo Q6M were injected subcutaneously on the same day after lumbar fusion surgery, and all participants received calcium supplementation 1200 mg/D and vitamin D 800 IU/D.
