Determining the pharmacogenetic, pharmacokinetic and cellular basis of bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw (BONJ) via associating particular proteins and particular single nucleotide polymorphisms with a risk for developing BONJ after receiving bisphosphonate treatment. Methods and kits for identifying the genetic basis for a patient's predisposition to BONJ. A haplotype tagging SNP approach was used to analyze candidate genes involved in bone absorption and destruction and to examine the influence of genetic variants on the susceptibility of BONJ. Bone biomarkers of BONJ are disclosed. Said biomarkers provide for improved monitoring of the drugs used to treat BONJ, improved prevention of BONJ, and optimized treat-ment of patients having BONJ or predisposed to BONJ.

L'invention concerne la détermination des fondements pharmacogénétique, pharmacocinétique et cellulaire de l'ostéonécrose de la mâchoire induite par le bisphosphonate (BONJ) par association de protéines particulières et de polymorphismes nucléotidiques uniques particuliers à un risque de voir apparaître une BONJ à la suite d'un traitement par le bisphosphonate. L'invention concerne également des méthodes et des nécessaires permettant d'identifier le fondement génétique de la prédisposition d'un patient à la BONJ. Une méthode consistant à marquer un haplotype au moyen d'un polymorphisme nucléotidique unique a été utilisé afin d'analyser des gènes candidats impliqués dans l'absorption et la destruction osseuses et afin d'étudier l'influence de variantes génétiques sur la sensibilité à la BONJ. L'invention concerne des biomarqueurs de BONJ. Lesdits biomarqueurs permettent un meilleur suivi des médicaments utilisés pour traiter la BONJ, une prévention améliorée de la BONJ et un traitement optimisé de patients atteints de BONJ ou présentant une prédisposition à la BONJ.
