NCT00925600
This is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate new or worsening lens opacifications in men with non-metastatic prostate cancer receiving denosumab for bone loss due to androgen deprivation therapy.
NCT02604836
This study will investigate participant satisfaction (including compliance, preference, tolerability) with once-monthly Bonviva in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis or osteopenia transitioned from once-weekly alendronate or risedronate. The anticipated time on study treatment is 6 months, and the target sample size is 1776 individuals.
NCT00377234
This 2 arm crossover study will evaluate patient reported preference for either once monthly Boniva (150mg p.o.) or once weekly risedronate (35mg p.o.). Patients with post-menopausal osteoporosis will be randomized to receive Boniva for 3 calendar months or risedronate for 12 weeks; they will then cross over to receive the alternative treatment for a further 12 weeks/3 months. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
NCT02598934
This study will evaluate whether an early positive response to once-monthly oral ibandronate in treatment-naive participants with postmenopausal osteoporosis is predictive of efficacy later in treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 6 months, and the target sample size is 360 individuals.
NCT00808132
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this investigational drug for the treatment of menopausal symptoms while protecting the endometrium (uterine lining) and preventing postmenopausal osteoporosis. Subject participation will last approximately 14.5 months.
NCT00000623
The purpose of the TCRN is to accelerate research in the management of thalassemia, standardize existing treatments, and evaluate new ones in a network of clinical centers in North America. The emphasis will be on clinical trials that help identify optimal therapy. Therapeutic trials may involve investigational drugs, drugs already approved but not currently used, and drugs currently used.
NCT00046254
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zoledronic acid given once yearly for two years to men and women after surgical repair of a recent hip fracture will significantly reduce the rate of all re-occurring (new) osteoporotic fractures. All patients will receive vitamin D and calcium.
NCT00205777
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bazedoxifene acetate is safe and effective in the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
NCT00022087
RATIONALE: Zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D may prevent bone loss in patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. It is not yet known which regimen is more effective in preventing bone loss. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two regimens of zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D to see how well they work in preventing bone loss in women who are receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.
NCT00048074
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of intravenous administration of Bonviva regimens in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis, compared to oral daily administration. Patients will also receive daily supplementation with vitamin D and calcium. The anticipated time of study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
NCT00097825
The goal of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of an annual intravenous treatment of zoledronic acid for the treatment of osteoporosis in men. All patients will receive calcium and vitamin D supplements.
NCT00790101
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy study designed to compare the effects of risedronate, raloxifene, and placebo on BMD, bone turnover markers, and other markers of anabolic activity in postmenopausal women who previously received HRT.
NCT00069004
The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of metabolic and physical abnormalities in HIV infected (via mother-to-child transmission) and uninfected children and youth. Metabolism, body composition, bone density, and other factors will be assessed in relationship to participants' exposure to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).
NCT00176579
RATIONALE: Measuring bone mineral density may help doctors predict whether prostate cancer will come back. It may also help the study of prostate cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying whether bone mineral density affects cancer recurrence in patients with early stage prostate cancer.
NCT00431444
This study will compare the effects of Zoledronic acid and Raloxifene in reducing bone turnover markers in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density over 6 months.
NCT00303485
This study will determine the rapidity of suppression of the bone resorption marker sCTX in post-menopausal women with osteoporosis.Other bone turnover markers will also be evaluated. Patients will be randomised to either monthly Boniva 150mg or placebo, in combination with vitamin D and calcium supplementation. The anticipated time on study treatment is approximately 7 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
NCT00927186
The purpose of this study is to investigate how teriparatide or zoledronic acid affects the bone of postmenopausal osteoporotic women after 6 months of treatment as determined by a bone biopsy sample taken from the iliac crest (upper part of the pelvis). After completing 12 months of treatment all participants are eligible to participate in an additional 12-month open label extension.
NCT00541658
The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy of a 35 mg delayed release weekly dosing regimen as compared to the standard daily dosing regimen of risedronate 5 mg daily.
NCT00383422
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of arzoxifene to raloxifene on the bone mineral density (bone strength).
NCT01011556
The primary purpose of this study is to help answer the following research questions: 1. How teriparatide given using a skin patch (transferred through the skin using the ViaDerm Teriparatide System) compares to teriparatide injected under the skin with a needle (pen injector) affects your bone density (how solid or porous your bones are). 2. The safety of the teriparatide skin patch and any side effects that might be associated with it.
