Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease, a common disease among middle and old-aged people. It is characterized by low bone mineral density and deterioration of bone microarchitecture, which can lead to increased risks of fragility fracture. There are over 200 million osteoporosis patients around the world in the current stage. Regarding the genders of osteoporosis patients, the number of female patients is much larger than that of male patients, and the former are attacked by osteoporosis much earlier than the latter.

The incidence of fracture, pain and deformation of spinal column keeps increasing.

More than 30 kinds of osteoporosis drugs have been launched into the market in the world. Clinically, bisphosphonates, parathyroid hormones, selective estrogen receptor modulators and activated vitamin D and analogues are used most often, which is the same as the situation in China.

In 2012, the global market size of 6 kinds of osteoporosis drugs was each over USD 1 billion. Top 3 drugs all belong to bisphosphonates: zoledronic acid, risedronate sodium and alendronate sodium. The market size of zoledronic acid is the largest, about USD 2 billion.

During 2008-2012, bisphosphonates, activated vitamin D and analogues, and calcitonins always took up above 98% shares of China osteoporosis drug market. The market share of bisphosphonates increased at the highest speed; that of activated vitamin D and analogues remained stable; that of calcitonins significantly decreased since 2011.
