OSTEOPOROSIS

This study looks at how teriparatide, a bone-building drug, affects the inner structure of bones in 100 men and women with osteoporosis over 24 months. Using a special 3D scanner, researchers measure changes in bone thickness and microarchitecture at the wrist and shin. The goal …

This study aimed to see if a web-based service (e-FLS) could help more people over 60 start osteoporosis treatment within a year after a low-trauma fracture, compared to standard fracture liaison services. The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results a…

This study compares a new experimental drug, SAL023, to an approved osteoporosis medicine called Evenity. It involves 118 healthy Chinese adults aged 18 to 45. The goal is to see if the new drug works similarly in the body and is as safe as the approved one.

This study tests whether a nurse-led program can help women aged 45-64 in Hong Kong better manage their health and use medical resources wisely. Over 1,700 participants will either receive personalized nurse guidance or general health advice. The goal is to improve health confide…

This early-stage study tests a new stem cell treatment (HMM910) in 9 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who are at high risk of breaking a bone. The main goal is to see if the treatment is safe and tolerable. Researchers will also check how the stem cells move through the bod…

This study looks at how well the drug Prolia works and how safe it is for men with osteoporosis in mainland China. About 102 men aged 30 to 90 with low bone density or a history of fractures will receive Prolia injections. The main goal is to see if bone density in the lower spin…

This study tests whether giving older women (65+) in long-term care a monthly bone-building injection for one year, followed by an annual infusion, can improve bone density and prevent fractures. The goal is to find a better way to manage osteoporosis and reduce fracture risk in …

This study looks at whether taking teriparatide for one month before lumbar fusion surgery helps screws grip stronger in patients with osteoporosis. The goal is to reduce complications like screw loosening. 192 participants will be randomly assigned to receive the drug or not, an…

This early-phase study tests whether romosozumab, a drug used for osteoporosis, can safely improve bone health in postmenopausal women who also have multiple myeloma. Ten participants receive the drug, and researchers measure changes in bone formation and breakdown markers. The g…

This study compares two osteoporosis medications—romosozumab followed by denosumab versus denosumab alone—in 40 adults with a spinal cord injury that happened less than six months ago. The goal is to see which approach better maintains bone density around the knee over two years.…

This study looks at a program to help older adults get tested and treated for osteoporosis after breaking a bone. Many people don't realize a fracture can be a warning sign of weak bones, and without care, they are at high risk for more breaks. The program notifies doctors and pa…

This study looks at how teriparatide, a drug that builds new bone, changes bone structure in 60 postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis over two years. Researchers want to see if the drug affects bone thickness differently at the wrist versus the ankle, which could help pre…

This study tests whether switching osteoporosis patients from one drug to another after one year improves bone loss. It involves 40 adults aged 45 and older who already completed a related trial. Participants will take either Alendronate or Teriparatide for one year, then switch …

This study looks at three different care models to help prevent falls and further broken bones in older adults (65+) who are recovering from a fracture in a skilled nursing facility. The models focus on reducing risky medications, improving bone health, or both. Researchers want …

This study looks at whether different types of resistance exercise (like lifting weights) can help prevent osteoporosis (weak bones) and osteoarthritis (joint pain) in women aged 50 to 70 who have gone through menopause. Researchers will measure changes in bone density, muscle si…

This study aimed to see if a special bone assessment technique could predict how well bone status improves after a zoledronic acid infusion in women with osteoporosis. It planned to measure bone texture and density before and after treatment. However, the study was withdrawn befo…

This study tests a new, less invasive way to measure bone strength in women who have had hip or wrist fractures. Researchers want to see if this method can identify fracture risk better than standard bone density scans. About 190 women will participate, including those with recen…

This study looks at how bone might influence citrate levels in urine, which is important for kidney stone prevention. Researchers will study 25 people with osteoporosis who have not yet been treated. They will measure bone density, bone turnover, and urine citrate before and afte…

This study looks at whether medications for osteoporosis also improve muscle health in adults aged 65 and older who have both bone loss and muscle loss (sarcopenia). Researchers will measure changes in muscle mass, strength, walking speed, and bone density over time. The goal is …
