Filter by:Vitamin D and calcium are essential in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. What dosage of vitamin D which is the ideal one, is not yet clear. We want to test the hypothesis that high dosage of vitamin D (i.e. 6500 IU/d) is better than standard dosage (800 IU/d) in a randomized double-blind trial. We will include 400 postmenopausal otherwise healthy women with T-score <= -2.0 in L2-4 or mean total hip. Everybody will receive calcium 1000 mg and vitamin D 800 IU every day. Half of the group will also receive vitamin D 40 000 IU/week, while the other half will have placebo. The study period is one year.
A Multi-center study to determine effects of various doses of Macroflux Parathryroid Hormone (PTH) in women with osteoporosis
This study will evaluate the efficacy of acetaminophen or fluvastatin in reducing the rate of occurrence and the severity of post dose symptoms that may occur during the 3 day period following a zoledronic acid infusion in post menopausal women with low bone mass.
Elderly, postmenopausal women with breast cancer on aromatase inhibitors are at increased risk of developing bone loss and osteoporosis. We postulate that in elderly, osteopenic postmenopausal women who are on aromatase inhibitor therapy, bisphosphonate therapy will (1) prevent bone loss at clinically relevant sites, such as the spine and hip and (2) decrease bone turnover.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether TSE-424 (bazedoxifene acetate), an investigational drug, is safe and effective in the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
A research study to see how safe and effective MK0217 is when taken weekly for the prevention and treatment of steroid induced bone loss.
The primary objective of this trial is to show that PTH(1-84) is superior to strontium ranelate in bone formation measured as changes in bone formation markers over a treatment period of 24 weeks in postmenopausal women with primary osteoporosis.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of several doses of vitamin D on hormones related to bone, calcium absorption, bone density and muscle strength.
This is a 12 month study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of SB-751689 in the treatment of osteoporosis in post-menopausal women, in comparison with 2 active comparators and placebo.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and exposure of SB-751689 when administered alone at supratherapeutic doses and when SB-751689 is co administered with ketoconazole, a PGP/CYP3A4 inhibitor that increases exposure of SB-751689. Data from this study will enable the planning and conduct of a QTc study for SB-751689.
