What is being measured

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

  1. Change in bone mineral density of the lumbar spine from baseline to 24 weeks post treatment.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in bone mineral density from baseline to 12 weeks post treatment

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Safety, including hypercalcemia and nasal effects

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. Change from baseline in bone markers PINP and CTX from baseline to 4, 12 and 24 weeks post treatment

    Measured: 4, 12 and 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Teriparatide and Teriparatide Nasal Spray in people with Osteopenia and Osteoporosis, run by Nastech Pharmaceutical Company, Inc..

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 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 bone mineral density of the lumbar spine from baseline to 24 weeks post treatment. (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 13 Mar 2008.
