Assessment:
Are You Prepared?
WELCOME LETTER
Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to welcome all ISCD and IOF colleagues to
Impact of New Paradigms on Skeletal Assessment: Are You
Prepared?, a joint ISCD-IOF meeting. Prompt and concerted
inter-organizational cooperation has yielded a world-class
skeletal health meeting with global representation and
impact. At this joint meeting, we anticipate an interchange of
ideas that will stimulate thought and debate, with the goal of
advancing global skeletal health.
The ISCD-IOF Annual Meeting Committee and the Board hope you

Exploring New Insights into Bone Biology
Exhibit Objectives: To be able to identify risk factors for
osteoporosis and guidelines for treatment; discuss fracture data
available for risedronate in the prevention and treatment of
postmenopausal osteoporosis and glucocorticoid induced
osteoporosis; describe different components of bone strength;
discuss mechanism of action of bisphosphonates
Exhibit Topics:
1. Fracture Risk Assessment
2. Treatment Guidelines
3. Fracture Efficacy of Risedronate in PMO and GIO
4. Components of Bone Strength
5. Mechanism of Action
Exhibit Objectives: To provide recent preclinical data with RANL
Ligand inhibition; review new insights into the bone biology; role
of RANKL/RANK in osteoclast-mediated bone loss RANKL/RANK
pathway; and review the current unmet medical need with
current therapies
Exhibit Topics:
1. Biotechnology overview
2. New insights into the bone biology and the role of RANKL/RANK
in osteoclast-mediated bone loss RANKL/RANK pathway
3. Unmet medical need with current therapies
a. A significant opportunity remains to improve osteoporosis
outcomes
b. Adherence to oral bisphosphonates is generally suboptimal,
resulting in reduced patient outcomes
c. Currently available osteoporosis therapies are associated
with tolerability and safety concerns
4. Strategies for improving the management of postmenopausal
osteoporosis
a. Evaluate postmenopausal women for risk and screen patients
appropriately
b. Follow NOF recommendations for initiating pharmacologic
therapy

Find out about the exciting new total P1NP bone marker. The medications
on the market have proven to reduce osteoporotic fractures, however,
these medications have not reached their full effect due to poor patient
compliance. By giving patients earlier feedback, it has been verified that
patients keep taking their medications. Biochemical Markers of Bone can
tell you, as early as 90 days of treatment start, if the patient’s
antiresorptive or anabolic therapy is effective.
