What is being measured

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

  1. to measure the intensity of the pain relief of the patients at the end of treatment with a five classes score (TOTPAR = TOTal PAin Relief)

    Measured: at 12 weeks or at 16 weeks (end of treatment)

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. To measure the intensity of the pain relief of the patients with the PAR at each visit

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  2. To evaluate the pain variation with VAS between V1 and V2, V3, V4, V5.

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  3. To evaluate the pain variation with BPI (=Brief Pain Inventory) and correlate with VAS (=Visual Analog Scale)

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  4. To evaluate the use of analgesic (analgesic score) and the number of patients needing an analgesic radiotherapy between V1 and V5

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  5. To evaluate the duration of responses

    Measured: at 12 weeks or at 16 weeks (end of treatment)

  6. To evaluate the number of skeletal related events by patient

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  7. To evaluate the effect on functional disability, professional activity (BPI), the PS and overall condition (VAS) between V1 and V5

    Measured: every 3 or 4 weeks during 12 to 16 weeks

  8. To evaluate the variations of PSA (=Prostate specific Antigen) between V1 and End of study or premature withdrawal

    Measured: at 12 weeks or at 16 weeks (end of treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Zoledronic acid in people with Pain, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 2 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

to measure the intensity of the pain relief of the patients at the end of treatment with a five classes score (TOTPAR = TOTal PAin Relief) (time frame: at 12 weeks or at 16 weeks (end of treatment)). 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 2 Jun 2017.
