About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open Label Study Evaluating the Effect on Renal Function of Intravenous Bonviva Given by Injection or Infusion, Compared With Oral Alendronate, in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis at High Risk for Renal Disease.

This 3 arm study will evaluate renal safety after administration of an intravenous (iv) injection or infusion of Bonviva, compared to oral alendronate, in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis, at increased risk of renal disease. Patients will be randomized to receive Bonviva 3mg intravenous (iv) by a) injection or b) infusion once every 3 months, or alendronate 70mg per oral (po) weekly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.

Being tested
ibandronate [Bonviva/Boniva], Alendronate
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Absolute Change From Baseline in Actual Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) (Using Abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] Formula)

    The primary parameter of the study was the change (mL/min) from baseline in actual GFR (abbreviated MDRD formula using the patients' actual body surface area) after 9 months (or 40 weeks) of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Absolute Change From Baseline in Actual GFR (Using Cockcroft-Gault [CG] Formula)

    Change (mL/min) from baseline in actual GFR (using Cockcroft-Gault [CG] formula) after 9 months (or 40 weeks) of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  2. Relative Change From Baseline in Actual GFR (Using Abbreviated MDRD Formula)

    Change (mL/min) from baseline in actual GFR (abbreviated MDRD formula using the patient's actual body surface area) after 9 months (or 40 weeks) of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  3. Relative Change From Baseline in Actual GFR (Using CG Formula)

    Change (mL/min) from baseline in actual GFR (CG formula using the patient's actual body surface area) after 9 months (or 40 weeks) of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  4. Absolute Change From Baseline in Mean Serum Creatinine.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  5. Relative Change From Baseline in Mean Serum Creatinine.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  6. Absolute Change From Baseline in Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

  7. Relative Change From Baseline in Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio.

    The relative change from baseline in this case is positively skewed (while the absolute change is not) and the means tends to more positive values.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ibandronate [Bonviva/Boniva] and Alendronate in people with Post-Menopausal Osteoporosis, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 44 sites in 6 countries.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 44 sites in United States, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa and 1 more country. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Absolute Change From Baseline in Actual Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) (Using Abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] Formula) (time frame: Baseline and 9 months). 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 NCT00503113, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jun 2011.
