Background: Bone metastasis is a common complication in patients with advanced malignant tumors and seriously impairs the quality of life of patients. Bisphosphonates are effective drugs for the treatment of bone metastasis pain. Incardronate disodium belongs to the 3rd generation of bisphosphonates. The efficacy and safety of bisphosphonates were explored using a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methods: The databases PubMed (2000 to August 2021), EMBASE (2000 to August 2021), Cochrane library (August 2021), and CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure, 2000 to August 2021) were searched. Randomized controlled studies involving patients being treated with incardronate for bone metastasis pain were included in the literature search. After screening and risk of bias assessment based on the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions, Stata 16.0 software was used for analysis.

Results: The seven articles included in this study involved a total of 510 patients. Meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference between incardronate and pamidronate disodium in the effectiveness of treating bone metastasis pain [odds ratio (OR) =1.03, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.78–1.34, Z=0.188, P=0.851). The incidence of febrile adverse reactions from incardronate was significantly lower than pamidronate disodium (OR =0.58, 95% CI: 0.39–0.86, Z=−2.727, P=0.006). The total incidence of adverse reactions from incardronate was significantly lower than pamidronate disodium (OR =0.58, 95% CI: 0.40–0.85, Z=−2.851, P=0.004).

Discussion: The use of incardronate in the treatment of bone metastasis pain due to malignant tumors had comparable efficacy to the second-generation bisphosphonate pamidronate disodium. However, incardronate had fewer adverse reactions than pamidronate disodium.

Introduction

Bone metastasis is a common complication in patients with advanced malignancies, especially in lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (1). Some previous studies (2) have shown that the incidence of bone metastasis in late-stage breast cancer is as high as 65–75%, while the incidence of bone metastasis in patients with lung cancer reaches 30–40%. After the occurrence of bone metastasis, patients present with a series of osteolytic diseases, which can lead to bone pain, fracture, functional disorders, hypercalcemia, and other symptoms. The most typical symptom is stubborn pain, which seriously impacts the quality of life of patients (3). Clinically, it is necessary to actively control bone metastasis pain. In addition to surgery, chemoradiotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted drugs, and other treatments for the primary tumor, bisphosphates have been found to be effective for treating bone metastasis pain (4). Incardronate disodium belongs to the 3rd generation of bisphosphonates, which was one kind of incadronate acid, initially developed in 1997 and marketed in Japan. The antiresorptive strength of incardronate disodium is 1,000 times that of the 1st generation bisphosphonate, chlordronate, it has been shown in some studies to be long acting, rapid, and an efficient bone resorption inhibitor, with fewer toxic side effects compared with other bisphosphonates used in the treatment of osteoporosis, deformable osteoarthritis, hypercalcemia and bone pain caused by bone metastasis of malignant tumor (not including primary bone cancer itself) (5). A study (6) has reported the side effects between other kinds of third-generation (zoledronic acid) and second-generation bisphosphate (pamidronate disodium) in the treatment of bone metastasis pain, however, there is a lack of systematic evaluation of the effectiveness and side effects compare between incardronate and pamidronate disodium. This study analyzed the utility and safety of incardronate disodium to provide a basis for clinical practice.

We present the following article in accordance with the PRISMA reporting checklist (available at https://dx.doi.org/10.21037/apm-21-3056).


Methods

Criteria for inclusion of literature in the study

Literature type

The literature included in this study involved randomized controlled trials (RCTs), single-center and multi-center trials, and unlimited publication language. Controlled clinical trials (quasi-RCTs) and non-randomized concurrent controlled trials were excluded.

Participants

As humans were the research object of the literature search, studies involving rabbits, dogs, or rats were excluded. The selected patients had bone metastases from malignant tumors, confirmed by pathology and cytology, and the primary malignant tumor (breast cancer, intestinal cancer, gastric cancer, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, etc.) was irrelevant. Patients were not in a chemotherapy or radiotherapy cycle and were expected to have a life expectancy of >6 months. The imaging examination showed bone metastases and was accompanied by a moderate or higher pain score based on a numeric rating scale (NRS). There was no loss of heart, liver, kidney, or other major organ function during treatment.

Description of intervention

At least two groups of intervention methods for pain were required, including an experimental group using incardronate disodium and a control group using pamidronate disodium. Treatment and observation time were more than 3 weeks.

Outcome indicators

Primary outcome indicators included degree of pain reduction or effective rate of pain treatment, and adverse reaction rate.

Secondary outcome indicators were improvement in quality of life, serum calcium level, and serum phosphorus level.

Search strategy and literature identification

Search databases included PubMed (2000 to August 2021), EMBASE (2000 to August 2021), the Cochrane library (August 2021), and CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure, 2000 to August 2021). The input keywords were: (incardronate/YM175) AND (pamidronate/pamidronic) OR (Bisphosphonate) OR (bone metastases).

Literature screening and data extraction

Once the literature had been retrieved, Endnote X9 software was used for data management. After duplicates were excluded using the software’s de-duplication function, two researchers independently completed the screening of included studies. Ineligible studies were identified and excluded by reading the title and abstract. After obtaining the original text and data, the remaining studies were further screened. If there was a conflict of opinion between the two researchers, a 3rd researcher was consulted to resolve the difference of opinion.

Two researchers independently extracted data including:

  • Basic information of literature: title, author, contact address, name of publication, and publication date;
  • Basic characteristics of study: total number of samples, number of groups, and number of samples in each group;
  • Basic characteristics of the participants: age of participants, gender, type of primary tumor, grade of bone pain, and presence of hypercalcemia;
  • Characteristics of intervention: different intervention methods used in the experimental group and the control group;
  • Results evaluation: degree of pain relief, quality of life, and type and number of adverse reactions.

Literature bias and evaluation analysis

The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions was used to assess the risk of bias for RCT studies, with high, low, or unclear indicating the risk of each dimension. We ranked an RCT “Level A” quality if all six aspects of the intervention were assessed with low risk of bias; If there was one or more “unclear risk of bias”, it was ranked with Level B quality; If there was one or more “high risk of bias”, it was ranked with Level C quality.

Handling of data loss

If a study did not include data but there was an access link provided, the data were obtained using the link. If there was no data at all, the original author was contacted to obtain the data, and if the data could not be obtained, the study was excluded.

Statistical analysis

Effect measurement

Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to assess binary variables (pain response rate and incidence of adverse reactions). P<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.

Synthetic analysis tools and heterogeneity detection

Stata 16.0 software was used for analysis, and forest plot was used to present the results of analysis. I2 and Q tests were used to analyze the heterogeneity of literature. I2>50% or P<0.1 indicated statistically significant heterogeneity.

Analysis of publication bias

Funnel plots were used to represent publication bias.

Heterogeneity survey and sensitivity analysis

The labbe function provided by Stata 16.0 was used to investigate heterogeneity, and the influence analysis tool was used for sensitivity analysis.

Risk assessment of bias of included literature

The risk of bias was assessed based on Cochrane (Table 2). One study (8) referred to grouping according to order (not random). The other studies did not mention grouping randomization or provide a specific random sequence generation method. None of the studies mentioned allocation concealment or blind methods. However, most set observation nodes and provided detailed descriptions for drop-out cases. No selective reporting or other bias was found.

Discussion

Bone metastasis refers to the metastasis of the primary tumor into bone tissue through the bloodstream and lymph system, leading to dissolved or damaged bone tissue. Cancer cells can directly destroy the mineralized matrix of the bone structure by stimulating osteolysis (14,15). Inhibition of bone destruction and reduction of bone pain are the basis for improving the quality of life of patients with advanced bone metastases. At present, there are many treatment methods for bone metastasis pain. Analgesics, chemoradiotherapy, hormone therapy, and other measures can reduce bone destruction and reduce pain. However, chemoradiotherapy alone can only produce local efficacy and cannot be used for the treatment of patients with systemic bone metastasis, while chemoradiotherapy can cause considerable adverse reactions (16). In recent years, the application of double silicates has brought new treatment methods to patients with multiple bone metastasis pain. The therapeutic principle is that they are directly absorbed to act on bone tissue, inhibit the activity of osteoclasts, slow down the destruction of bone structure, treat osteolysis associated with osteoclasts, and influence tumor-induced melting, osteoblastic, and mixed bone destruction (17,18). In the study by Saad et al. (19), zoledronic acid was used in the treatment of advanced bone metastasis in patients with prostate cancer, resulting in good long-term results. Pamidronate disodium is a second-generation bisphosphonate drug, and its efficacy has been affirmed in numerous clinical studies (20). In this study, 253 patients were treated with incardronate disodium and 255 patients were treated with pamidronate disodium. Meta-analysis showed that there was no statistical difference in the effectiveness of the two drugs, implying that incardronate had similar efficacy to pamidronate disodium. Incardronate, a third-generation bisphosphate, can bind directly to bone matrix physicochemical properties, interfere with osteolysis and absorption, and prevent the adhesion of osteoclasts in bone tissue. Additionally, incardronate disodium can reduce the differentiation and proliferation of osteoclasts, induce their apoptosis, inhibit their number and activity, and impede the invasion of tumor cells, thereby reducing their colonization in bone tissue and controlling the spread of bone metastases (21).

All of the studies in this review reported the incidence of adverse reactions from the two drugs, with the combined effect size showing that the fever rate and total adverse reaction rate of incardronate disodium was less than pamidronate disodium. The main adverse reaction of treatment with incardronate disodium was fever (8,10), which was relieved after antipyretic drug intervention. A small number of patients experienced nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and abnormal urea nitrogen, but there was no abnormal liver function or nephrotoxicity reported, indicating the safety of incardronate. The study (11) pointed out the incidence of other adverse reactions, such as fatigue and skeletal muscle pain is much lower, most of which occur 2–3 days after medication and can be relieved automatically or after some symptomatic treatment, and the molecular structure of incardronate makes it easier to be absorbed and can prevent the release of inflammatory mediators.

At present, the most commonly used bisphosphonates in clinical practice include pamidronate disodium, ibandronate sodium, zoledronic acid and incardronate disodium. Among them, ibandronate sodium, zoledronic acid and incardronate sodium belong to the third generation bisphosphonates. Studies (22,23) have compared the therapeutic effects of incadronate disodium with other third generation bisphosphonates, the results of which showed that the 14 days efficacy of incadronate disodium was up to 90.0%, and most of the patients had good tolerance, no obvious adverse reactions, the safety and efficacy were better than other drugs. However, one study (24) compared the costs of ibandronate, zoledronic acid and incardronate disodium and found that the costs of the three drugs are sorted with zoledronic acid < ibandronate sodium < incadronate disodium at conventional doses. Therefore, zoledronic acid is still the main drug in clinical application.

In this study, the Labbe plot for heterogeneity showed that the literature was evenly distributed, as did the sensitivity analysis diagram, indicating that there was no significant heterogeneity between the studies. However, most of the studies did not mention the random sequence generation method, allocation concealment method or blind method, and thus the quality of the literature may bias the application of the results. In addition, the sample sizes of the included studies were small. Further controlled clinical studies with larger sample sizes and multiple centers are needed to provide stronger evidence for the efficacy and safety of incardronate compared to pamidronate disodium.


Conclusions

In summary, the application of incardronate for treating bone metastasis pain produced efficacy equivalent to the second-generation bisphosphonate pamidronate disodium, but incardronate had far fewer adverse reactions than pamidronate disodium. As the sample size of this study was small, more RCTs of better quality should be included in future reviews to continue exploring the safety of incardronate.
