About this study

Official title: Compliance With and Acceptance of Teriparatide Pen Injection in Severely Osteoporotic Patients [CATS]

The purposes of this study are to evaluate the acceptance of the subcutaneous drug teriparatide over 6 months of therapy in patients with severe osteoporosis in Canada, and to evaluate how often such patients are actually able to use the injection; to obtain additional safety data (side effect data) that will supplement the existing database of adverse events that have been reported to-date in clinical trials by patients treated with teriparatide; to document the prior use of other osteoporosis therapies in this patient population, and ongoing use of other osteoporosis therapies during the study; and to describe the baseline demographics and disease state of these severely osteoporotic patients.The purposes of the study extension are to continue to assess the acceptance of the subcutaneous drug teriparatide over up to 18 months of therapy in patients with severe osteoporosis in Canada, and to continue to assess how often such patients are actually able to use the injection; to obtain additional safety data (side effects) that will supplement the existing database of adverse events that have been reported to date in clinical trials by patients treated with teriparatide.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing teriparatide in people with Osteoporosis, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 13 sites in Canada.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Canada. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 primary objective is to determine the acceptance of, and compliance with, 6 months of teriparatide subcutaneous injections in patients with severe osteoporosis who have failed on OR are intolerant to currently available osteoporosis therapies.. 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?

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 2007.
