About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the increase in spine bone mineral density that has been generally observed in previous clinical studies involving the study drug can be maintained or even increased if followed with raloxifene HCl. All qualifying study participants will receive the study drug followed by treatment with raloxifene HCl or placebo. All study participants will receive raloxifene HCl in the third phase of the study.

Being tested
teriparatide, raloxifene HCl, placebo
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • teriparatideDrug

  • raloxifene HClDrug

  • placeboDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The study is designed to compare the effect of 1 year of raloxifene treatment with the effect of placebo on maintaining teriparatide-induced increases in spine and hip BMD.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. An open-label treatment phase will extend the study for 1 year beyond the primary endpoint. During this final year of the study all patients will receive raloxifene.

  2. The purpose of lengthening is to assess the differences in response to raloxifene when it is administered immediately following versus 1 year after(with and without a washout period) withdrawal from teriparatide.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The study is designed to compare the effect of 1 year of raloxifene treatment with the effect of placebo on maintaining teriparatide-induced increases in spine and hip BMD.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
