About this study

Official title: A Multicentre Phase III/IV Study, of the Effects of Risedronate Sodium (ACTONEL™, 35mg/Week, Oral) on Bone, in Postmenopausal Women, With Hormone-receptor-positive Early Breast Cancer, Treated With Anastrozole (ARIMIDEX™, 1mg/Day Oral) With Risk of Fragility Fracture (High-risk Fragility Fracture-open-label, Non-comparative Stratum; Moderate-risk of Fragility Fracture-randomised, Double-blind Stratum; Low-risk of Fragility Fracture - Open-label, Non-comparative Stratum)Abbreviated

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety parameters of anastrozole with regard to its potential effects on postmenopausal bone loss and on lipid profiles. This trial is conducted to investigate the effects of risedronate on BMD and on bone metabolism in postmenopausal women using anastrozole as adjuvant therapy for hormone-receptor-positive early breast cancer and who are high or moderate risk of fragility fracture. It is also conducted to determine the effects of anastrozole on bone mineral density (BMD) and on bone metabolism in women at low risk of fragility fracture.

  3. Change from baseline in bone formation markers

    Measured: Assessed at 6 and12 months

  4. Change from baseline in bone resorption and formation markers

    Measured: Assessed at 6 and 12 months

  5. Change from baseline in LDL-cholesterol

    Measured: Assessed at 12 months

  6. Change from baseline in LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol, and serum triglycerides

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6 and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Anastrozole and Risedronate Sodium in people with Breast Cancer, run by AstraZeneca at 35 sites in 8 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 35 sites in United States, Canada, France, Netherlands, Spain and 3 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The change from baseline in lumbar spine (L1-L4) bone mineral density (BMD) (time frame: Assessed at 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00082277, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2011.
