This study is designed to provide information about the bone-anabolic response of PTH134 when administered orally, in comparison to Forsteo®, the sub-cutaneous form of teriparatide, the active ingredient in PTH134.
This is a multi-center, open-label, drug-drug interaction study in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
Oxytocin is a neurohypophysial hormone involved in several central and peripheral functions including parturition, milk let-down reflex and social behaviour. In vitro and animals studies have shown growing evidence that oxytocin plays a role in bone remodeling and osteoporosis. The investigators have previously show in a small sample of post-menopausal women with severe osteoporosis (n=20) compare to healthy control (n=16) that oxytocin serum level is significantly decreased, independently of leptin and estradiol, that are known to modulate oxytocin secretion. Thus, oxytocin appears as a new interesting factor in the osteoporosis pathophysiology. The aim of the present study is to confirm the relationships between bone status, evaluated by bone mineral density and prevalent fragility fractures, body composition and oxytocin serum levels on a large population. The investigators will also determine if the relationship between bone mineral density and oxytocin is independent of estradiol and leptin in this population and evaluate the relationships between oxytocin serum level and co-morbidities such as cardiovascular diseases, depression and dementia. Theses analysis will be done on the serum already available of 1000 women of the international OPUS cohort. Bone mineral density, body composition analysis by Dual energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), estradiol and clinical data are already available. The investigators will select women, aged from 55 to 79 y at the time of inclusion.
This observational study will assess the compliance and persistence of patients, real life efficacy and safety of intravenously quarterly administered 3 mg ibandronate [Bonviva/Boniva] in comparison to oral alendronate generics in female patients with post-menopausal osteoporosis. The anticipated time of assessment is 12 months. The target sample size is 5000-7000 patients.
Angeliq regulatory Post-Marketing Surveillance (PMS) is to get data about safety and efficacy in real practice for the indication approved by Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). This is non-interventional , prospective, multi-center study.Target number of patients is 4500.
This study seeks to demonstrate that additional gain in bone mineral density (BMD) can be achieved by switching to MK-5442 from an oral bisphosphonate in participants who have been receiving oral bisphosphonate therapy for at least 3 years.
The study will assess the real life effectiveness of zoledronic acid in the management of patients with osteoporosis over 4 years of treatment. Zoledronic acid will be compared to oral bisphosphonates (OBP) with respect to the change in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and incidence of fractures.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of food intake on the plasma concentration profile of YNO-5920/YM529 in post menopausal women.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and tolerability of two medications, calcitonin nasal spray and a tablet containing calcitonin, in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is the term used to describe a large group of diseases, which are characterized by loss of bone density, which makes the bones weaker. Osteoporosis often occurs in postmenopausal women. Calcitonin is a hormone found in the human body. Together with other substances, it regulates the concentration of calcium in the blood and inhibits the natural resorption of bone. Both medications in this study contain salmon calcitonin (sCT), because this form of calcitonin is more active than human calcitonin when used as a medicine. The calcitonin Nasal Spray used in this study is registered and available to doctors in United States for the treatment of osteoporosis. The medication being tested in this study is an oral tablet form of salmon calcitonin.
