Filter by:The primary objective was to determine the effect of treatment with romosozumab versus placebo at month 12 on the percent change from baseline in bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine in postmenopausal women with low bone density.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bone mineral density has increased in a subgroup of postmenopausal osteoporotic women from study CR9108963, between 6 and 12 months following cessation of ronacaleret therapy.
To evaluate the combined effect of denosumab treatment and discontinuation on cortical thickness at the distal radius by High Resolution-Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT). Participants randomized to either denosumab or placebo in the 20050179 (NCT00293813) study who completed that study (ie, attended an end of study visit) can be included in this study. At least 12 months should have elapsed since the patient's 20050179 end of study visit.
To characterize the effects of discontinuation of denosumab therapy on variables of bone histology in postmenopausal women with low bone mass or osteoporosis. Patients who have received denosumab and completed study 20050179 (NCT00293813), completed study 20050141 (NCT00330460), completed study 20060237 (NCT00515463), completed study 20030216 (NCT00089791) but did not enroll in study 20060289 (NCT00523341) will be included in this study. Patients who will participate in the off-treatment imaging study for 20080747 (NCT00890981) are also eligible.
This study will evaluate whether teriparatide is superior to the active comparator in the change from baseline of lumbar spine BMD (bone mineral density) in men and postmenopausal women with low bone mass and a recent pertrochanteric hip fracture.
The study will evaluate the both the efficacy of odanacatib on Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and the safety of odanacatib for postmenopausal osteoporosis in patients previously treated with alendronate. The primary hypothesis of the trial is that treatment with odanacatib 50 mg once weekly will increase bone mineral density at the femoral neck compared to placebo at the end of 24 months.
Recent studies suggest that the combination of two inhibitors of bone resorption may induce a greater increase in bone mineral density (BMD) than either agent alone. In this 5-year partly randomized study the investigators examined the effects of hormone therapy (HT) with or without bisphosphonate on BMD on osteoporotic women. In the Kuopio Osteoporosis Study (OSTPRE) a population based sample of 3200 women were selected for BMD measurement by Lunar DPX in 1995-1997. In all 167 women aged 61±2.7 years (11±4.9 years postmenopausal), and the T-score < -2.5 SD at either the lumbar spine or femoral neck were recruited for this sub-study. They received daily estradiol hemihydrate (E2) 2mg + norethisterone acetate (NETA) 1mg (Kliogest®, Novo Nordisk, Denmark) and were randomized to get additional Boneplac, which consisted of either 800mg clodronate (Bonefos®, Leiras Ltd, Finland) (n=55, KB-group) or placebo (n=55, K-group). In case of contraindications or refusal from HT, the women were offered clodronate 800 mg/day (n=57, B-group) to be taken to empty stomach with a glass of water 30 minutes to two hours before breakfast. BMD was measured at time intervals 0, 1, 3 and 5-years. All repeated BMD values were interviewed by one investigator and primarily the vertebrae L2-L4 were followed. In case of spinal deformities during the study (38.3%) other lumbar levels were followed. The baseline BMD values (lumbar spine BMD 0.839±0.072 g/cm², femoral neck BMD 0.759±0.094g/cm²) were similar between the groups.
Study Design: (e.g., Controlled, Double-Blind, Randomized, Parallel): Randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled of a bisphosphonate in the prevention of bone loss associated with the use of antiepileptic drugs.
This study assessed the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single-dose odanacatib (MK0822) with and without food.
This study will assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of odanacatib (MK0822) when administered with a light breakfast.
