| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Denosumab, an anti-RANKL antibody drug, has been clinically used in recent years. However, it has been suspected that Denosumab has a potential to cause severe hypocalcemia. Since drug adverse reactions (ADR) often occur under the mechanisms which are not expected at development, there are difficulties in revealing such mechanisms in many cases. Overcoming these difficulties leads to mechanism based ADR management, resulting in safer drug therapy. Therefore, in this research, we have established a method to obtain the clues for ADR mechanisms based on systems-pharmacological techniques. With this method, we approached the mechanism behind Denosumab inducing hypocalcemia.
