Active clinical trials for "Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal"

The purpose of this study is to examine whether monthly oral administration of ibandronate to postmenopausal osteoporosis patients with type 2 diabetes differs in safety and efficacy compared to patients without diabetes.

Denosumab is a monoclonal antibody against RANKL ligand, which is used as an alternative treatment for osteoporosis in patients who have a poor response to first-line antiresorptive therapy. However, discontinuation of denosumab produces a rapid increase in bone turnover, bone loss and potentially increased risk of multiple vertebral fractures.

This study will evaluate participant-reported preference for either ibandronate or a comparator drug in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis. The anticipated time of study treatment is 6 months, and the target sample size is 338 individuals.

The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of forearm exercise on forearm bone density in post-menopausal women with or without primary hyperparathyroidism. The investigators hypothesize that forearm exercise will increase forearm bone density in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism more so than in patients without primary hyperparathyroidism.

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of denosumab 60 milligrams (mg) for 12 month treatment in Chinese postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at increased risk of fracture.

The aim of the study is to assess the effect of an antiresorptive medication in combination with standard dose or alternate dose teriparatide. The study extension will evaluate the effect of one-dose of zoledronic acid after the teriparatide/denosumab combination.

The primary aim of the study is the comparative effect of zolendronic acid versus denosumab on serum sclerostin levels in postmenopausal women with low bone mass. Secondary aims are their comparative effect on serum dickkopf-1, osteoprotegerin, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (RANKL) and bone turnover markers (procollagen type I N-terminal peptide [PINP] and C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen [CTX]).

This is a phase I study to analyze the effect of water and food intake on the bioavailability and pharmacodynamic of oral salmon calcitonin (SMC021) and salmon calcitonin nasal spray in post-menopausal women.

The purpose of this study is to use imaging technologies to demonstrate the effects of teriparatide on bone structure following 18 to 24 months of therapy in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

This 2-arm study was designed to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) treatment with 2 mg or 3 mg Bonviva in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis who had previously completed Bonviva study BM16550 (DIVA study; NCT00048074). Patients received Bonviva either 2 mg IV every 2 months, or 3 mg IV every 3 months. Patients also received daily supplementation with vitamin D and calcium. The anticipated time on study treatment was 2+ years, and the target sample size was 500+ individuals.
