Ang T, Chaggar V, Tong JY, Selva D. Medication-associated orbital inflammation: A systematic review. Surv Ophthalmol 2024; 69:622-631. [PMID: 38490453 DOI: 10.1016/j.survophthal.2024.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
We performed a comprehensive systematic review to identify medication-associated orbital inflammation and to characterize its clinico-radiological features. We reviewed English-language articles describing medication-associated orbital inflammation (i.e., orbital myositis, dacryoadenitis and orbital fat) published to June, 2023. Isolated inflammation of the intraocular structures or globe alone (i.e. uveitis, scleritis, optic neuritis and perineuritis) were excluded. In medication-associated orbital inflammation, the extraocular muscles are preferentially affected, occurring in isolation or in combination with other orbital and/or intraocular structures. Clinico-radiological manifestations may be non-specific; however, certain medications may be distinguished according to the presence of systemic prodrome, laterality, associated intraocular inflammation, and predisposition to involve certain orbital structures. Rapid identification, discontinuation of the provoking medication, and systemic corticosteroid therapy (if appropriate) typically achieves a favorable visual prognosis. As new medications become adopted by clinicians, rare adverse effects will be further delineated.Medication-associated orbital inflammation is an important diagnostic consideration in orbital inflammatory disease. A careful medication history and clinical assessment may be revealing, permitting timely discontinuation of the offending agent and initiation of appropriate management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This manuscript aims to provide a comprehensive review of the current knowledge in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, prevention, and other relevant clinical and forensic aspects of a potentially severe complication known as medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) while synthesizing state-of-the-art information on bisphosphonates and introducing a possible differential diagnosis. DESIGN An extensive search was conducted in PubMed (U.S. National Library of Medicine) without a time or language constraint, focusing on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, risk factors, site specificity, signs and symptoms, differential diagnosis, prevention, and forensic aspects of MRONJ. All types of original articles, reviews, case reports, short communications, opinion articles, guidelines, and letters to editors were considered to produce a complete review on this subject. RESULTS MRONJ prevention relies on a multidisciplinary approach and is critical since truly effective treatments are lacking. This therapeutic challenge is partly due to uncertainty regarding this condition's pathophysiology. Differential diagnosis of osteonecrosis of the jaws associated with krokodil abuse, one of the most dangerous and homemade psychoactive illicit substances, should be considered. CONCLUSIONS Further research into the etiology and site specificity of MRONJ is encouraged, aiming to develop novel treatment prospects. Indeed, comprehending this would allow for increased efficacy and therapeutic options while emphasizing the importance of prevention. In addition, we advocate for greater consensus among the various societies regarding MRONJ's treatment and management.

Abstract
In rare cases, bisphosphonates are well established to cause ocular inflammation, presenting as uveitis, episcleritis, scleritis, orbital inflammation, and/or conjunctivitis. Some reports of bisphosphonate-associated neuro-ophthalmic complications also exist. We identified 101 reports in the literature relating to bisphosphonate-associated ocular complications. In a great majority of cases, symptoms resolve after discontinuation of the drug and anti-inflammatory treatment. Many cases recur if rechallenged with the same bisphosphonate. First-generation nonamino bisphosphonates, including clodronate and etidronate, are not associated with ocular inflammation. Only 2nd- and 3rd-generation amino bisphosphonates, including pamidronate, alendronate, risedronate, ibandronate, and zoledronate are associated with these complications. The mechanism of bisphosphonate-induced ocular inflammation may be related to activation of γ/δ T cells or M1 macrophages. Intravenous forms, such as pamidronate and zoledronate, tend to have higher rates and faster onset of ocular inflammation, generally presenting within days of infusion. In oral bisphosphonates, such as alendronate and risedronate, these complications present with more sporadic timing. Rates of complications are also higher when bisphosphonates are used for malignancy, as doses tend to be higher compared with doses for osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis, as a musculoskeletal disease, is very common, especially in the era of aging society. It is described by a reduction in bone strength and increased risk of fractures, which are linked to considerable morbidity, mortality, and high healthcare burdens. Bisphosphonates are the most commonly used drugs to manage osteoporosis and they consequently reduce fracture risk. However, one of the clinical challenges is fear of side effects in patients who are using bisphosphonates as the administration of these drugs is lengthy. Ocular inflammation has been reporting as one of the potential vision-threatening side effects of bisphosphonates. PURPOSE To review previously reported ocular inflammation in patients taking bisphosphonates. METHOD A literature survey was conducted using databases in order to collect data for a narrative review of published reports regarding ocular side effects of bisphosphonates. RESULTS People taking bisphosphonates were at a relatively low risk of ocular inflammation, with the onset from a few hours after exposure up to more than 3 years. The release of inflammatory mediators mainly by activated gamma delta T cells in response to bisphosphonates was the main cause of ocular inflammation. CONCLUSION Strategies for treating patients with osteoporosis should consider the potential ocular side effects of bisphosphonates. Ocular inflammation, as one of the side effects of bisphosphonates, is a serious sight-threatening sign and should be taken seriously. Greater awareness of the association between bisphosphonate use and ocular inflammation may allow for earlier identification and timely treatment of future cases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate ocular involvement findings in female osteoporosis patients using oral bisphosphonate (BP). METHODS A total of 51 female osteoporosis patients aged 50-75 years using oral BP for at least one year for the study group and 64 age-matched non-osteoporosis female patients for the control group were included in the study. The BP type and exposure time were noted. The ophthalmic examination findings and measurements of the flare of the patients who received oral BP due to osteoporosis and the controls were evaluated. RESULTS The mean duration of BP use was 3.96 years. In the study group, it was detected four of 51 patients were diagnosed with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) (7.8%), seven of 102 eyes had erythematous, irregular, thickened lid margin or telangiectasia around the glandular orifices. There were no pathological findings on fundus examination. The mean value of measurements of the flare (ph/ms) was 7.90±7.96 in the study group, and 5.02±0.81 in the control group. When the mean values were compared, there was a significant difference between the two groups (P=.001). A significant difference was found in the mean value of measurements of the flare between the patients using alendronate, and ibandronate with the control group (P=.001; P=.005, respectively). CONCLUSION Our study showed that the flare in the anterior chamber associated with chronic ocular inflammation can be seen higher rate in patients using oral alendronate, and ibandronate compared to those who do not. Morever it can be said that oral BPs may cause similar ocular side effects like as intravascular BPs.

Abstract
In recent years, an increasing amount of attention has been paid to medicinal products as possible risk factors in the development of eye diseases. The frequency of diagnosed drug-induced uveitis is growing yearly, which can be attributed to the appearance of new drugs - biological agents (immune checkpoint inhibitors, BRAF and MEK inhibitors, vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors, tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors), as well as systemic bisphosphonates and some antiviral drugs. The time interval between the beginning of the drug use and the appearance of uveitis symptoms varies from several days to months. Common symptoms include eye pain, photophobia, the appearance of floating opacities, and reduced vision associated with active inflammatory changes in the retina and optic nerve and outcomes of those inflammations. Timely diagnosis, cancellation of the drug that caused uveitis and appointment of adequate anti-inflammatory therapy in most cases effectively stops the symptoms of the disease, which determines the relevance of attention to the prevalence, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of drug-induced uveitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE This three-case report aims to highlight the ocular adverse effects induced by bisphosphonate therapy and to call clinicians' attention. METHODS Three cases of acute anterior uveitis secondary to the initial dose of zoledronate infusion were reported with focus on their symptoms, treatment regimens, and outcomes. A review of published reports provided a basis for discussion. RESULTS Three cases of acute anterior uveitis were either bilateral or unilateral. They demonstrated typical manifestations of bisphosphonate-induced acute anterior uveitis such as eye pain, blurred vision, conjunctival and ciliary hyperemia, keratic precipitates, and flare in the anterior chamber. After topical corticosteroid-containing comprehensive treatments, these symptoms resolved completely without any vision loss and long-term sequelae. CONCLUSIONS Acute anterior uveitis may be part of the acute phase reaction induced by zoledronate. Patients should be informed of its symptoms in advance and be monitored closely during and after administration. Clinicians should have a good awareness of the zoledronate-associated acute anterior uveitis and to treat it in a prompt and appropriate manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE There is a relative lack of head-to-head comparisons of denosumab against other osteoporosis drugs on safety. We aimed to explore ocular outcomes in patients with osteoporosis initiating denosumab vs zoledronic acid. METHODS We conducted a cohort study using claims data (2010-15) from two large US commercial insurance databases including patients with osteoporosis who were aged 50 years or older and initiators of denosumab or zoledronic acid. The primary outcomes were (1) receipt of cataract surgery and development of (2) wet age-related macular degeneration and (3) dry age-related macular degeneration within 365 days after initiation of denosumab vs zoledronic acid. Propensity score fine stratification and weighting were used to control for potential confounding, and we calculated the incidence rate and hazard ratio for each outcome in the cohorts. The estimates from the two databases were combined with a fixed-effects model meta-analysis. RESULTS The study cohort included 50,821 denosumab and 67,471 zoledronic acid initiators. In the propensity score-weighted analysis, compared to zoledronic acid use, denosumab was associated with a modestly decreased risk of undergoing cataract surgery (hazard ratio 0.91; 95% confidence interval 0.85-0.98) but not with the risk of wet age-related macular degeneration (hazard ratio 1.29; 95% confidence interval 0.99-1.70) or dry age-related macular degeneration (hazard ratio 1.03; 95% confidence interval 0.98-1.09). CONCLUSIONS In this large population-based cohort study of 118,292 patients with osteoporosis, initiation of denosumab was associated with a modestly decreased risk of cataract surgery vs zoledronic acid. The risk of age-related macular degeneration was similar between the two drugs.

Abstract
Zoledronate (Zol) is an anti-resorptive/tumoral agent used for the treatment of many cancers including spinal bone metastasis. High systemic administration of a single dose is now the standard clinical care, yet it has been associated with several side effects. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effects of lower doses Zol on lung cancer and lung cancer-induced bone metastasis cells over a longer time period. Human lung cancer (HCC827) and three bone metastases secondary to lung cancer (BML1, BML3 and BML4) cells were treated with Zol at 1, 3 and 10 µM for 7 days and then assessed for cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis. Low Zol treatment significantly decreased cell proliferation (1, 3 and 10 µM), migration (3 and 10 µM) and invasion (10 µM) while increasing apoptosis (10 µM) in lung cancer and metastatic cells. Our data exploits the potential of using low doses Zol for longer treatment periods and reinforces this approach as a new therapeutic regimen to impede the development of metastatic bone cancer while limiting severe side effects following high doses of systemic drug treatment.

Abstract
The corneal endothelium plays an integral role in regulating corneal hydration and clarity. Endotheliitis, defined as inflammation of the corneal endothelium, may disrupt endothelial function and cause subsequent visual changes. Corneal endotheliitis is characterized by corneal edema, the presence of keratic precipitates, anterior chamber inflammation, and occasionally limbal injection, neovascularization, and co-existing or superimposed uveitis. The disorder is classified into four subgroups: linear, sectoral, disciform, and diffuse. Its etiology is extensive and, although commonly viral, may be medication-related, procedural, fungal, zoological, environmental, or systemic. Not all cases of endothelial dysfunction leading to corneal edema are inflammatory in nature. Therefore, it is imperative that practitioners consider a broad differential for patients presenting with possible endotheliitis, as well as familiarize themselves with appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.

Abstract
To report two cases of bisphosphonate-induced orbital inflammation, discuss the clinic-radiological features and management options, and highlight the increasing frequency of an association previously considered extremely rare. A retrospective review of two cases presenting to our department, and review of the literature reporting this association. Two new cases of bisphosphonate-induced orbital inflammation were added to the literature. The first occurred in the context of a risedronate re-challenge, and the second with zoledronic acid. Both cases were managed successfully with topical steroids. Clinicians prescribing bisphosphonates, particularly for the first time, should be aware of the increasingly reported association with orbital inflammation. The presence of suggestive clinical features should prompt urgent referral to an ophthalmologist for appropriate management.
