About this study

Official title: A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Teriparatide (FORTEO) for Increasing Bone Mass and Improving Bone Strength in Adults Affected With Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI)

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of teriparatide (FORTEO), which is human parathyroid hormone 1-34, for increasing bone mass and improving bone structure in adults affected with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI).

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of teriparatide (FORTEO), which is human parathyroid hormone 1-34, for increasing bone mass and improving bone structure in adults affected with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). Osteogenesis imperfecta is an inherited disorder of type I collagen, a major component of bones, and is characterized by multiple fractures and deformities. OI affects approximately 1-2 of every 10,000 individuals. Virtually all of the studies of potential treatments for OI have evaluated the effects of medications only on children with OI. There is no cure for osteogenesis imperfecta and there is no established medical therapy for adults with the disorder. There are very limited data concerning the usefulness of parathyroid hormone therapy in OI. An effective anabolic therapy for the treatment of adult patients with OI could be a valuable asset to the affected patients. In this study, the working hypothesis is that individuals affected with OI who are treated with Forteo will experience increased spine and hip bone mineral density and an increase in bone strength. Although Forteo is not expected to change the defect in the collagen produced, but is postulated to increase the quantity of bone formed and improve bone strength.

This will be a placebo controlled, double blinded trial; half the patients will receive Forteo 20 ug/day SQ. Adult patients (age at least 18 yrs) with OI will be enrolled for a treatment duration of 18 months. Blood, urine, and bone density/strength tests will be done during the study to assess efficacy and safety.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Teriparatide (FORTEO) in people with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, run by Oregon Health and Science University at 3 sites in United States.

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 8 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 24 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) (time frame: baseline and 18 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 NCT00131469, 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 24 Apr 2019.
