About this study

Official title: Assessment of Tartrate- Resistant Acid Posphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) in Primary and Secondary Osteoprosis

Assessment of the TRACP-5b level in 1ry OP and 2ry OP such as RA and seronegative spondylitis, that may help in surrogating the use of BMD.

Read the detailed description

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone density and a deterioration of bone microarchitecture that reduces bone strength and increases the risk of fracture. The hallmark of osteoporosis is the loss of both bone mineral and bone matrix. Although Bone mass density (BMD) is still the gold standard for the diagnosis of osteoporosis, but bone turnover markers (BTMs) can provide helpful information regarding the bone remodelling process. One of these relatively recent markers is the Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP). TRACP, which was first identified in human leukocytes, has 2 isoforms TRAP-5a derived from macrophages and dendritic cells and TRACP-5b secreted by osteoclasts. it is believed that TRACP-5b is a useful marker of osteoclast activity, even a marker for osteoclast number, as it is associated with osteoclast differentiation, activation and proliferation. Furthermore, it has the advantage of not being affected by renal dysfunction, nor food intake and has a weak diurnal variability. And this is why it has been used as one of the bone turnover markers in evaluating the efficacy of different anti-resorptive treatments in postmenopausal osteoporosis and in 2ry OP due to rheumatoid arthritis as well as in evaluating its specificity in identification of postmenopausal OP when compared to measurement of more expensive, relatively unavailable bone mineral density (BMD).So far, limited researches are available regarding the TRACP-5b level difference among 1ry OP (postmenopausal women) and 2ry OP (ex. RA, SpA).

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of the TRACP-5b level in 1ry OP and 2ry OP such as RA and seronegative, that may help in surrogating the use of BMD.

    Assessing Tartrate- resistant Acid Phosphatase Marker in primary osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and control group that may help in substituting Dxa scan.

    Measured: Baseline

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 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 15 Nov 2021. 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.

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 AMIRA MA MANSOUR, Resident (01099777532, am9322729@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of the TRACP-5b level in 1ry OP and 2ry OP such as RA and seronegative, that may help in surrogating the use of BMD. (time frame: Baseline). 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 NCT05103592, 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?
