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 55 to 85 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Primary Inclusion Criteria:

  • The patient has a bone mineral density T-score ≤ 2.5 at the lumbar spine or hip (femoral neck) by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Women with a bone mineral density T-score of 2.0 or lower and a prior low-trauma forearm, humerus, vertebral, sacral, pelvic, hip, femoral, or tibial fracture within the past 5 years, or who have an additional risk factor such as age 65 or greater or a strong maternal history of osteoporosis defined as a fracture related to osteoporosis or osteoporosis itself as determined by BMD criteria, are also study candidates.
  • The patient is in good general health as determined by medical history and physical examination and is without evidence of clinically significant abnormality in the opinion of the Investigator.

Primary Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of bone disorders (e.g., Paget's disease) other than postmenopausal osteoporosis.
  • Prior treatment with approved or as yet unapproved bone-acting investigational agents.
  • History of carcinoma, nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis within the past five years or osteosarcoma at any time.
  • History of radiotherapy (radiation therapy).

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Parallel-Group, Phase 2 Dose-finding Study to Evaluate the Effects of BA058 in the Treatment of Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis

The purpose of this study is to determine whether BA058 is effective in building bone in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Marker of Bone Metabolism, PINP

    PINP, N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen, is a marker of anabolic bone growth.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Change in Bone Mineral Density, Total Spine.

    Total analyzable spine bone mineral density (BMD) was analyzed by DXA at Week 24.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in Bone Mineral Density, Femoral Neck.

    Femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) was analyzed by DXA at Week 24.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Change in Bone Mineral Density, Total Hip.

    Total analyzable hip bone mineral density (BMD) was analyzed by DXA at Week 24.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Change in Bone Mineral Density, Total Spine.

    Total analyzable spine bone mineral density (BMD) was analyzed by DXA at Week 48.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing teriparatide, BA058 20 µg and BA058 40 µg in people with Osteoporosis, run by Radius Health, Inc. 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?

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 30 Oct 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 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 29 Jul 2010). 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?

Change in Marker of Bone Metabolism, PINP (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00542425, 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 30 Oct 2017.
