Unlike bisphosphonates, the therapeutic effect of denosumab can be assessed using radial dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (radial DXA) in clinics.
Radial DXA revealed the efficacy of denosumab in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and RA + glucocorticoid groups that responded poorly to bisphosphonate treatment.
Adherence to denosumab treatment was significantly higher than that for bisphosphonate treatment.
