Trial summary

The aim of the study is to 1. To describe the bone morphology in patients with reduced renal function and high or low parathyroid hormone (PTH) respectively. 2. To investigate if the non-invasive method 18-Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-PET) can describe the bone turnover and reflect the bone… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Diagnosis of Renal Osteodystrophy in Patients With Reduced Renal Function Can 18F-PET Replace Bone Histomorphometry

The aim of the study is to

  1. To describe the bone morphology in patients with reduced renal function and high or low parathyroid hormone (PTH) respectively.
  2. To investigate if the non-invasive method 18-Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-PET) can describe the bone turnover and reflect the bone histomorphologic changes
  3. To investigate if non-oxidized PTH reflects bone turnover
Read the detailed description

Patients with reduced renal function and suspected high turnover or low turnover bone disease are recruited.

A bone biopsy and a 18F-PET scan are performed and it is investigated if the 18F-PET can discriminate high turnover from low turnover bone disease

What is being measured

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

  1. Can 18F-PET-CT describe bone formation rate?

    The ROC curve for 18F uptake by bone measured as bone plasma clearance (ki) to descriminate between high and low bone turnover measured as bone formation rate

    Measured: The bone biopsy and 18F-PET will be performed during two month for each participant

  2. Can non-oxidized PTH describe bone formation rate?

    The relation between non-oxidized PTH in ng/L and bone turnover in bone biopsy described as bone formation rate

    Measured: Blood sample and bone biopsy will be performed during two month for each participant

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Can 18F-PET-CT describe mineral apposition rate?

    The ROC curve for 18F uptake by bone measured as bone plasma clearance (ki) to descriminate between high and low bone turnover measured as mineral apposition rate

    Measured: The bone biopsy and 18F-PET will be performed during two month for each participant

  2. Can non-oxidized PTH describe mineral apposition rate?

    The relation between non-oxidized PTH in ng/L and bone turnover in bone biopsy described as mineral apposition rate

    Measured: Blood sample and bone biopsy will be performed during two month for each participant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Osteodystrophy, run by Ditte Hansen at 1 site in Denmark.

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 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2025. 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 Denmark. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ditte Hansen, PhD (+4538683868, ditte.hansen.04@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Can 18F-PET-CT describe bone formation rate? (time frame: The bone biopsy and 18F-PET will be performed during two month for each participant). 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?
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 18 Mar 2025.
