About this study

Official title: International, Multicenter, Prospective Registry to Collect Data of Treatment Patterns of Patients With Medication-related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ) and Their Outcome

Approximately 500 patients will be included in this patient registry. Data collection includes demographics, clinical data of underlying disease and use of bisphosphonates, denosumab and antiangiogenic drugs , degree and extension of osteonecrosis, osteonecrosis-specific treatment, outcomes and complications within 1 year after treatment.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 500 patients diagnosed with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw will be enrolled in the study. Patients will undergo standard (routine) of care treatment, either conservative or surgical or both, and followed up during one year after the initiation of the treatment. Treatment outcome (development of the condition), pain and complications will be collected and documented over the duration of the registry.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment outcome

    Compared to the baseline status of the patient's condition, the outcome will be evaluated as:

    • Worsening of the osteonecrosis (e.g. size of the lesion increased)
    • No change of the osteonecrosis
    • Reduction of the osteonecrosis (e.g. size of the lesion decrease)
    • Complete mucosa healing

    Measured: 6 months / 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pain perception

    Numeric Rating Scale

    Measured: 6 months / 1 year

  2. Staging of osteonecrosis

    Staging of osteonecrosis according to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons

    Measured: 6 months / 1 year

  3. Site and size of the lesion

    Site (single vs. multiple) and size of the lesion according to Weitzman et al.

    Measured: 6 months / 1 year

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Treatment outcome (time frame: 6 months / 1 year). 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?
