Filter by:This is a Monocentric, Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Comparative, Phase IV Study, to compare the effects of Vildagliptin and Gliclazide MR on Markers of Bone Remodeling, Bone Mineral Density and Glycemic Variability in Postmenopausal Women with Type 2 Diabetes. A total of 38 women with documented Type 2 Diabetes and menopause will be enrolled. The active treatment will include a 50 mg dose of vildagliptin OD twice a day. As comparator, gliclazide MR will be administered at a dose of 60 to 120 mg OD once a day.
This study will compare and assess the prevalence of osteopenia and vitamin D deficiency as well as effects of TDF on the patients' bone among HIV positive and negative patients.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the effect treatment has on serum P1NP levels, a biomarker of bone formation in postmenopausal women with low bone mass.
The study seeks to determine the impact of assessing risk for osteoporosis in women on patient and physician behaviors through a pharmacist directed osteoporosis screening program. Women will be offered a heel ultrasound to screen for their bone density and may or may not be asked questions about their risk for bone fracture. Pharmacists will counsel and educate all women on ways to prevent the onset of osteoporosis. Women will be telephoned three months after the screening and asked a series of 10 questions to follow up on decisions made by their physicians or changes made to their health behaviors related to bone health.
This study is being conducted to examine the performance of three common DXA machines (1) Lunar iDXA, (2) Lunar Prodigy and (3) Hologic Discovery A in measuring bone density and body fat.
This study will investigate the hypothesis that the combination of testosterone replacement and alendronate will improve bone density and parameters of bone quality more than either medication alone in older men with low testosterone levels and low bone density.
The aim of clinical study is to assess effectiveness of Bone UltraSonic Scanner (BUSS) versus densitometry (DXA) in osteoporosis detection.
This study is designed to provide information on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and bone biomarker response following multiple BPS804 administration in multiple dosing regimens. This information will permit a comparison of the possible risks and benefits of different dosing regimens of the study drug to enable optimal doses and dose intervals to be tested in subsequent studies.
Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder that can cause thinning of the bones (a decrease in bone density). A significant decrease in bone density is called osteopenia or osteoporosis. Sometimes the loss of bone density can be severe enough to cause breaks and fractures of the bones. It is not known what causes the bones to thin in anorexia nervosa. Women who have this condition often have thin or weak bones that are more likely to break. They also have very low levels of a chemical called IGF-1 in their body. This chemical is very important for increasing bone growth in puberty and for maintaining healthy adult bones. The investigators would like to find out if giving rhIGF-1 followed by risedronate or risedronate alone can lead to an increase in bone formation, bone density, and bone strength in women with anorexia nervosa.
Recent studies have shown that inhibition of Aquaporine-9 channels may ameliorate the bone degradation process. Pro-bone is an AQ - 9 channels inhibitor. This study is design to evaluate the safety of Pro-bone.
