About this study

Official title: Effect of Different Doses of Budesonide on Markers of Bone Metabolism in Children With Asthma - Randomized, Controlled Trial.

The purpose of the trial is to check if inhaled glucocorticosteroids (iGCS) have influence on bone condition (if iGCS increases risk of osteoporosis and bone fraction) in children with asthma.

Read the detailed description

Asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease of respiratory tract, the largest frequency is noticed in children. iGCS are the basic group of drugs in asthma, because of inflammatory character of disease. All iGCS are absorbed to the systemic circulation (small amounts) despite of local exposition in lungs and possess systemic effects. The purpose of trial is to check if iGCS have influence on bone condition (if iGCS increases risk of osteoporosis and bone fraction) in children with asthma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing budesonide, D3 vitamin and montelukast sodium in people with Asthma, run by Medical University of Lodz at 1 site in Poland.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2010. 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 Poland. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Markers of bone metabolism (from serum and urine) (time frame: Baseline and 6 months). 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 13 Apr 2010.
