What is being measured

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

  1. The median time of radiographic healing

    A score of 13 by Modified Radiographic Union Scale for Tibia fractures (mRUST) scoring system would provide a confident assessment of union

    Measured: 0-14 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation

    A 15-item questionnaire(PRWE) that rates wrist-related pain and disability in functional activities. The scores range from 0 (no disability) to 100 (severest disability).

    Measured: 0, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 weeks

  2. Grip strength

    Grip strength will be assessed by a dynamometer.

    Measured: 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing recombinant teriparatide for injection in people with Colles' Fracture, run by Peking University Third Hospital.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2020. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Junxiong Zhu, M.D. (+86 18801238160, zhujunxiong@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The median time of radiographic healing (time frame: 0-14 weeks). 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 NCT04473989, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 16 Jul 2020.
