Postradiotherapy bone fragility fractures are a frequent late-onset complication in cancer survivors. There is a critical need to develop preventative interventions, and the use of Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs remains an attractive option. Prior data from our lab and others have shown that parathyroid hormone [1–34] mitigates radiotherapy-induced bone loss, but only for the duration of drug delivery. Utilizing a murine hindlimb radiotherapy model, we investigated whether orchestrated delivery of single-dose zoledronic acid could extend these anabolic benefits after cessation of parathyroid hormone delivery. We then explored the potential use of parathyroid hormone as a bone marrow radioprotectant. While the addition of zoledronic acid to parathyroid hormone increased irradiated bone mass, there was no increase in femur bending strength. In this model, the parathyroid hormone was not effective as a marrow radioprotectant, although this could be due to the short course of parathyroid hormone treatment. Marrow repopulation kinetics differed from those in total body irradiation, with hematopoietic stem cell repopulation occurring relatively early at four weeks postirradiation. Furthermore, we found radiation induced a loss of marrow stromal cells and an increase in inflammatory monocytes. Statement of Clinical Significance:​ Staged delivery of parathyroid hormone and zoledronic acid shows promise as an off-the-shelf intervention to mitigate post-radiotherapy bone damage in cancer patients, but parathyroid hormone is unlikely to function as a broad-spectrum marrow radioprotectant.
