Filter by:OSTEOFORM, containing recombinant (rhPTH [1-34]), enhances bone mineral density and reduces risk for vertebral fracture. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of OSTEOFORM in the treatment of osteoporosis in post-menopausal women.
This study will examine the biological fate of radioactive SB-751689 administered to healthy males and healthy postmenopausal women. Subjects will receive a single oral dose of radioactive SB-751689. Excreta and blood samples will be taken over the course of 7 days. This study will help determine the major route of elimination of SB-751689 in humans. It will also provide samples (blood, plasma, urine, and stools) for analysis of metabolites, if any.
Primary Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not combined quantitative diffusion and fat MR imaging techniques can differentiate between benign and malignant vertebral fractures.
This 2 arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of intravenous Bonviva in patients with osteoporosis experiencing pain after recent vertebral osteoporotic fracture. Patients will be randomized to receive either Bonviva (3mg i.v. bolus injection) or placebo. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
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.
