Cohort Study on Associations Between Purinergic Receptor SNPs &

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Osteoporosis is a high-prevalence disease with a strong genetic component. Nucleotides, including ATP (adenosine 5'-triphosphate) and its purinergic receptors, play a role in bone physiology. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the P2X7 receptor gene were recently found to be associated with fracture risk in a cohort of postmenopausal women.

Objective: To investigate associations between purinergic receptor SNPs and osteoporosis risk in humans. Genetic data from a fracture cohort in the Netherlands with high prevalence of osteoporosis will be analyzed. Furthermore, effects of aberrant purinergic receptor signalling on bone turnover markers will be assessed ex vivo.

Design: The cohort will include app. 1,000 fracture patients of 50 years and older, who will be recruited at the Maastricht University Medical Center during standard medical follow-up after a clinical fracture. The standard medical follow-up includes assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) by Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), if necessary followed by medication for osteoporosis. Prior to medication, blood samples will be collected from fracture patients to be genotyped for purinergic receptor SNPs and analyzed for biochemical markers of bone turnover. Systemic correlates of osteoporosis will be compared between osteoporotic subjects (i.e. low BMD) and non-osteoporotic controls (i.e. normal to high BMD). Subsequently, whole blood assays in patient subgroups (n=20 per subgroup), based on BMD and purinergic receptor SNPs, will be performed to evaluate ex vivo effects of ATP and related nucleotides bone markers.

Study population: Patients of 50 years and older attending an outpatient osteoporosis clinic at the Maastricht University Medical Center for standard medical follow-up after a clinical, non-pathological fracture.

Primary outcome parameters: BMD and purinergic receptor SNPs.

Secondary outcome parameters: Bone markers.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
