About this study

Official title: A Stratified, Randomized, Open-label, Multi-center Comparative 2-arm Trial of PK, PD, and Safety of Zoledronic Acid Infusions Administered Monthly vs. Every 3-month, in Multiple Myeloma Patients With Malignant Bone Lesions, and Breast Cancer Patients With Bone Metastasis, Who Have Received 9-12* Doses of Zoledronic Acid Over the Prior Year. (*Amendment 1 Changed the Required Doses to 9-20 But Due to FDA Guidelines, the Title Has Not Been Changed)

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the repeat-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of zoledronic acid when administered every 4 weeks versus every 12 weeks, in patients treated with 9-20 infusions of zoledronic acid during the previous 10-15 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sequential plasmas concentrations of zoledronic acid collected at 13 study visits between visit 2 to visit 17

    Measured: every four (4) weeks

  2. Sequential urine concentrations of zoledronic acid collected at 9 study visits between visit 2 to visit 13

    Measured: every four (4) weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pharmacodynamic outcomes will be measured by the concentration of bone resorption markers at all visits.

    Measured: every four (4) weeks

  2. Efficacy outcomes will be measured throughout the study by number and time to skeletal related events (determined by bone surveys and bone scans) as well as the measurement of pain and analgesic scores.

    Measured: bone survey = every 12 weeks; bone scan = every 24 weeks; pain & analgesic scores = weekly prior to visit 8 (inclusive), every 4 weeks after visit 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Zoledronic acid in people with Multiple Myeloma and Breast Cancer, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 7 sites in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Sequential plasmas concentrations of zoledronic acid collected at 13 study visits between visit 2 to visit 17 (time frame: every four (4) weeks). 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 21 Dec 2020.
