NCT ID: NCT00643331 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

The Effect of Exercise in Postmenopausal Women With Low Bone Density

Start date: February 2001
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of a 12 month gym- and home-based exercise program on bone density and falls risk factors in postmenopausal women with low bone density. It is hypothesised that the exercise program will lead to improvements in bone density and falls risk factors such as balance and muscle strength compared with usual care.

NCT ID: NCT00626769 Completed - Menopause Clinical Trials

Third Year Evaluation on Genistein Efficacy and Safety

Start date: July 2005
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Observational

BACKGROUND: Recent evidences showed that the phytoestrogen genistein positively affects bone metabolism with no clinically significant adverse effects in a cohort of osteopenic, postmenopausal women. However, there is still a knowledge gap regarding the long-term safety of genistein on the breast, the uterus, the thyroid gland and its efficacy in postmenopausal women. OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety profile of genistein on mammary and thyroid glands and endometrium and cardiovascular apparatus and its effects on bone metabolism after a 3-year therapy with pure, standardized genistein (54 mg/day).

NCT ID: NCT00581828 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Does Treatment of Hypovitaminosis D Increase Calcium Absorption?

Start date: January 2005
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose is to perform a one-year study designed to assess whether treatment of hypovitaminosis D increases intestinal absorption of calcium, subsequent retention of calcium within bone, decreases bone turnover, and favorably impacts upon skeletal muscle mass, functional status, measures of physical function and quality of life. I hypothesize that treatment of hypovitaminosis D results in improved intestinal calcium absorption, greater retention of calcium within the bone reservoir and improved physical function, quality of life and muscle mass.

NCT ID: NCT00577850 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Pharmacokinetics of a Single 14C-labeled Dose of Risedronate or Alendronate Followed by Once-a-week Unlabeled Oral Dose

Start date: November 2002
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to compare the urinary excretion of 14C-labeled risedronate and alendronate over 28 days.

NCT ID: NCT00572871 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Hormonal and Bone Turnover Marker Response to an Acute Bout of Resistance or Plyometric Exercise

Start date: December 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

We are interested in determining if there exist a short-term response in the serum markers and hormones that participate in the regulation of bone tissue formation and breakdown to a single, high-intensity exercise session of weight lifting (resistance exercise) or jumping (plyometrics). We are also interested in determining if the bone marker response to exercise is altered by changing the negative energy state caused by the exercise treatment, when subjects are given a moderate calorie meal.

NCT ID: NCT00572104 Completed - Osteopenia Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Plyometrics to Increase Bone Mass in Men With Osteopenia

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will compare the ability of two types of long term (12 months) weight-bearing exercise treatments (1. high-intensity jumping and 2. weight lifting) to increase bone mass of the total body, spine and hip in physically active men with osteopenia.

NCT ID: NCT00545116 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Effects of Hesperidin on Bone Biomarkers in Postmenopausal Women

Start date: October 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the effects of hesperidin on biochemical markers of bone in post-menopausal women. The secondary objectives are: - To investigate changes in bone formation and bone resorption markers in response to hesperidin intake - To compare the efficacy of hesperidin in a milk versus biscuit - To collect safety information of hesperidin consumption in a human trial

NCT ID: NCT00532337 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Controlled Study of ONO-5334 in Postmenopausal Women With Osteopenia or Osteoporosis

Start date: October 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-5334 in postmenopausal women with osteopenia or osteoporosis.

NCT ID: NCT00523341 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Extension Study to Evaluate the Long Term Safety and Efficacy of Denosumab in the Treatment of Osteoporosis

Start date: August 7, 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective was to describe the safety and tolerability of up to 10 years or 7 years denosumab administration as measured by adverse event monitoring, immunogenicity and safety laboratory parameters in participants who previously received denosumab or placebo, respectively.

NCT ID: NCT00515463 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

A Multi-Center, Randomized, Open-Label Study to Assess the Immunogenicity and Safety of Denosumab in Pre-filled Syringe Compared to Vial in Subjects With Low Bone Mineral Density

Start date: May 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the immunogenicity profiles of denosumab pre-filled syringe (PFS) and vial at 6 months in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density (BMD).
