Denosumab is a human monoclonal antibody (IgG2) that targets and binds with high affinity and specificity to receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) preventing RANKL from activating its only receptor, RANK, on the surface of osteoclasts and their precursors, independent of bone surface. Prevention of the RANKL/RANK interaction inhibits osteoclast formation, function and survival. Denosumab therefore reduces bone resorption and increases bone mass and strength in both cortical and trabecular bone.
