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.
NCT00163137
To compare the effects of 2 years of lasofoxifene treatment with 2 years of raloxifene 60 mg/day use and 2 years of placebo use on bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine.
NCT00046137
The purpose of this study is to compare treatment with both teriparatide and raloxifene with teriparatide alone. The study will evaluate any side effects that may be associated with the two drugs and may help to determine whether teriparatide and raloxifene together can help patients with osteoporosis more than teriparatide alone.
NCT00088010
The purpose of this trial is to study: * Effects of arzoxifene on bone fractures and bone mass. * Effects of arzoxifene on getting breast cancer. * Effects of arzoxifene on certain types of cardiovascular events, such as heart attack and stroke. * Effects of arzoxifene that changes the amount of certain substances in the blood that are related to osteoporosis and cardiovascular health. * Effects of arzoxifene on the uterus. * The safety of arzoxifene and any side effects.
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.
NCT00139685
To evaluate and compare Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in adolescent Depo-Provera Contraceptive Injection (DP150CI) users during depo medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) therapy and following discontinuation of DMPA. Another group electing non-hormonal contraception or abstinence will be recruited as a reference population, across all study sites. The primary variable is BMD, measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). Secondary variables are: Total Body Composition\& Total Body Calcium (TBC), measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), and surrogate biologic BMD markers. Safety will be evaluated by adverse event reporting, laboratory evaluations, pregnancies, weight and vital signs.
NCT00383422
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of arzoxifene to raloxifene on the bone mineral density (bone strength).
NCT00006394
OBJECTIVES: I. Compare whether the bone tissue in the spine and hip improves in patients with adult onset growth hormone deficiency treated with growth hormone (GH) vs placebo. II. Determine whether the blood samples of these patients show evidence of beneficial bone effects after treatment with GH. III. Compare the quality of life of these patients treated with these 2 regimens. IV. Determine the side effects of GH in these patients.
NCT00670319
To study the effect of long-term treatment with raloxifene, compared with placebo, on the rate of new vertebral fractures in osteoporotic postmenopausal women with and without existing vertebral fractures.
NCT00557310
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.
NCT00670501
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate a reduction in the proportion of new vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis following 3-years of treatment with 20 and 40 mcg/day of teriparatide plus calcium and vitamin D compared with calcium and vitamin D alone.
