Identification
- Summary
Pamidronic acid is a bisphosphonate used to treat Paget's disease, to treat hypercalcemia of malignancy, and to treat osteolytic bone lesions.
- Brand Names
- Pamisol
- Generic Name
- Pamidronic acid
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB00282
- Background
Pamidronic acid is a second generation, nitrogen containing bisphosphonate similar to neridronic acid and alendronic acid.2 Pamidronic acid was first described in the literature in 1977.9 The second generation bisphosphonates are less common as third generation bisphosphonates, such as ibandronic acid, zoledronic acid, minodronic acid, and risedronic acid are becoming more popular.2
Pamidronic acid was granted FDA approval on 31 October 1991.10

- Pharmacodynamics
Pamidronic acid is a second generation, nitrogen containing bisphosphonate that inhibits osteoclast mediated bone loss2,3,11 It has a wide therapeutic index and a long duration of action as it can be given every 3-4 weeks for certain indications.11 Patients should be counselled regarding the risk of elevated blood urea nitrogen, renal tubular necrosis, and nephrotoxicity.11
- Mechanism of action
Bisphosphonates are taken into the bone where they bind to hydroxyapatite. Bone resorption by osteoclasts causes local acidification, releasing the bisphosphonate, which is taken into the osteoclast by fluid-phase endocytosis.3 Endocytic vesicles become acidified, releasing bisphosphonates into the cytosol of osteoclasts where they act.3
Osteoclasts mediate resorption of bone.4 When osteoclasts bind to bone they form podosomes, ring structures of F-actin.4 Disruption of the podosomes causes osteoclasts to detach from bones, preventing bone resorption.4
Nitrogen containing bisphosphonates such as pamidronate are known to induce apoptosis of hematopoietic tumor cells by inhibiting the components of the mevalonate pathway farnesyl diphosphate synthase, farnesyl diphosphate, and geranylgeranyl diphosphate.5,6,2 These components are essential for post-translational prenylation of GTP-binding proteins like Rap1.5,6 The lack of prenylation of these proteins interferes with their function, and in the case of Rap1, leads to apoptosis.5,6 pamidronate also activated caspases 3 and 9 which further contribute to apoptosis.5,6,7

- General Function
- Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Binding of caspase-9 to Apaf-1 leads to activation of the protease which then cleaves and activates caspase-3. Promotes DNA damage-induced apoptosis in a ABL1/c-Abl-dependent manner. Proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP).
