About this study

Official title: An International, Multicenter, Open-label, Efficacy and Safety Trial of Intravenous Zoledronic Acid in Infants Less Than One Year of Age, With Severe Osteogenesis Imperfecta

The investigators have currently finished conducting an international multi-center trial that compares the efficacy and safety of pamidronate and zoledronate in the treatment of moderate to severe forms of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). This trial has included only children above one year of age. The aim of the current study is to extend the observations of that currently finished study to infants below 1 year of age. Moreover, it is possible to administer zoledronate in a single short infusion instead of the three-day cycles with Pamidronate, therefore decreasing patient and family burdens with shorter stays in the hospital.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Zoledronic AcidDrug

    Also called Aclasta

    Each patient is to receive an initial dose of zoledronic acid of 0.0125 mg per kg body weight, then subsequent doses of zoledronic acid at a dose of 0.025 mg per kg body weight once every 12 to 13 weeks for 104 weeks (total of 8 doses).

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of this trial is to assess the change in lumbar spine bone mineral density Z-score at month 24 relative to baseline in zoledronic acid treated infants compared to historical controls.

    Measured: 3 times during 10 visits within 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To assess the effect of zoledronic acid on the number of clinical fractures &/or vertebral compressions that occur over a two year period compared to untreated historical controls in infants.

    Measured: 3 times during 10 visits within 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Zoledronic Acid in people with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, run by Shriners Hospitals for Children at 1 site in Canada.

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 5 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 19 Apr 2016. 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 Canada. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

The primary objective of this trial is to assess the change in lumbar spine bone mineral density Z-score at month 24 relative to baseline in zoledronic acid treated infants compared to historical controls. (time frame: 3 times during 10 visits within 2 years). 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 19 Apr 2016.
