NCT03040765
This study is to compare the two medications Denosumab and Zoledronic Acid For Patients With Beta Thalassemia Major Induced Osteoporosis. Patients with B-thalassemia major induce osteoporosis will undergo baseline assessment of the bone densitometry by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan as a standard of care by the radiology department, then a blood test for bone specific Alkaline phosphatase and type-1 Carboxy Telopeptide will be measured by the chemistry lab. Patients with B-Thalassemia Major induced osteoporosis, who are 18 years of age or more and willing to participate in the study will be enrolled after consenting by the primary investigator in hematology outpatient clinic. Patients with osteoporosis will receive one of the two medications, at the end of the year Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan will be done to compare the response of the two medications. The potential risks include the drug-related side effects
NCT02418273
The purpose of this study is to evaluate denosumab as a novel treatment for bone loss in children treated with glucocorticoids for rheumatic disorders. This is a pilot Phase 1/2, randomized open-label, 12-month clinical trial of denosumab to assess its effect on bone resorption markers and bone mineral density (BMD) in children with rheumatic disorders, age 4 to 16 years, recruited within 1 month of starting a chronic systemic glucocorticoid regimen. Primary outcomes include suppression of bone turnover markers and safety assessments. Secondary outcomes include changes in bone density as measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) densitometry at the radius and tibia.
