Active clinical trials for "Osteoporosis"

This was a prospective, randomized, open-label, two arm phase III trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zoledronic acid in preventing bone loss in postmenopausal women with operable breast cancer who had received 4 to 6 years of adjuvant tamoxifen therapy after resection of the tumor. Patients were treated with letrozole 2.5 mg orally per day or letrozole 2.5 mg orally per day in combination with zoledronic acid 4 mg/6 months as an infusion. This trial did not recruit patients in the United States.

The objective is to show superior efficacy of PTH (1-84) over risedronate in treating osteoporotic women for 12 months after having previously been treated with PTH (1-84) for 12 months followed by 12 months treatment with risedronate.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of 24 months of treatment with once daily teriparatide injection (recombinant human PTH [1-34]) 20 micrograms on bone histomorphometry and architecture. Patients will include postmenopausal, osteoporotic women who have been treated long term (at least 36 months) with alendronate, as well as postmenopausal, osteoporotic women who have never been treated for osteoporosis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-5920 in patients with involutional osteoporosis.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of three week daily subcutaneous injections of Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein (1-36). Previous studies indicated that PTHrP has a skeletal 'anabolic' or bone-building effect, and has shown to increase bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Safety of PTHrP will be determined by measurements of blood pressure and pulse, serum blood calcium levels and subjective symptoms. Effectiveness will be measured by changes in measurements of blood and urine markers of bone turnover.

The purpose of this study is to find out if standing and/or standing with vibration works for the treatment of osteoporosis for people with a spinal cord injury.

AAE581 is a specific inhibitor of the cysteine protease cathepsin K. This trial is designed to provide detailed information about the effects( efficacy and safety) of AAE581 on Bone Mineral Density.

This study will test the safety and efficacy of AAE581 in increasing Lumbar Spine bone mineral density (BMD) at 12 months, by Dexa-scan (DXA) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of an investigational drug and dietary supplement to reduce the risk of vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency during the treatment of osteoporosis in men and postmenopausal women.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of denosumab in treating women with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis.
