Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 45 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Be postmenopausal for 0.5-5 years.Menopause is defined as 12 months without menses, based on medical history. Subjects who are post-menopausal secondary to bilateral oophorectomy must have serum FSH >40 mIU/mL and estradiol <20 pg/mL.
  • Subjects with 3 contiguous lumbar spine vertebral bodies (L1-L4) without fracture or degenerative disease.
  • Lumbar spine BMD mean value > 0.772g/cm2 (Hologic) or >0.880 g/cm2 (Lunar).

Who cannot join

  • Subjects with adequate lumbar spine BMD but osteoporotic by total proximal femur BMD (<0.637 g/cm2 [Hologic]) or <0.694 g/cm2 [Lunar]) as determined by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)

About this study

Official title: A One-Year, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of 35-mg Risedronate Administered Once a Week in the Prevention of Osteoporosis in Postmenopausal Women

Primary Objective:

  • To demonstrate that risedronate 35-mg once weekly is more efficacious than placebo in increasing or maintaining bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine after 1 year of treatment in women who are non-osteoporotic and 0.5-5 years postmenopausal.

Secondary objectives:

  • To demonstrate that risedronate 35-mg once weekly is more efficacious than placebo in increasing or maintaining total proximal femur, femoral neck, and trochanter BMD after 1 year of treatment in women who are 0.5-5 years postmenopausal
  • To assess the general safety of 35-mg risedronate administered once weekly.

What participants receive

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

  • Risedronate (HMR4003)Drug

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent change from baseline to Month12(endpoint) in lumbar spine BMD with imputation using LOCF principle.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percent change from baseline to Months 6 and 12 in lumbar spine BMD

  2. and the percent change from baseline to Months 6, 12, and endpoint in total proximal femur, femoral neck, and trochanter BMD

  3. Reported adverse events and changes in routine clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, and physical examinations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Risedronate (HMR4003) in people with Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal, run by Sanofi at 1 site 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 1 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 29 Apr 2009. 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 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. 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?

Percent change from baseline to Month12(endpoint) in lumbar spine BMD with imputation using LOCF principle.. 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 29 Apr 2009.
