What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density at the Lumbar Spine at Month 6

    Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine was measured by the dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scanner. The mean percent change from Baseline in BMD was calculated as: (value at Month 6 minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value. Analysis was performed using an Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) model with terms for treatment and baseline BMD at the lumbar spine (as a continuous covariate).

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Mean Percent Change From Baseline in BMD at the Total Hip, Femoral Neck, and Trochanter at Month 6

    BMD at the total hip, femoral neck, and trochanter was measured by the DXA scanner. The mean percent change from Baseline in BMD was calculated as: (value at Month 6 minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value. Analysis was performed using an ANCOVA model with terms for treatment and corresponding Baseline BMD (as a continuous covariate).

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  2. Median Percent Change From Baseline in Serum Carboxy-terminal Cross-linking Telopeptide of Type I Collagen (s-CTX) and Serum Procollagen Type IN Propeptide (s-PINP) Markers at Months 1, 3, and 6

    Blood samples were collected for the measurement of s-CTx and s-PINP, which are used as biomarkers of bone resorption and formation, respectively. The median percent change from Baseline in s-CTX and s-PINP markers at Months 1, 3, and 6 was calculated as: (post-Baseline value minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline; Months 1, 3, and 6

  3. Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE) and Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE)

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an event of possible drug-induced liver injury with hyperbilirubinaemia. Medical or scientific judgment was to have been exercised in other important medical events. Refer to the general Adverse AE/SAE module for a complete list of AEs and SAEs.

    Measured: From Baseline up to Month 6

  4. Number of Participants With a Change From Baseline in Vital Signs of Potential Clinical Concern at Months 1, 3, and 6

    Vital sign values of potential clinical concern were defined as: change in heart rate >30 beats per minutes (bpm), change in systolic blood pressure (SBP) >30 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), and change in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >20 mmHg. The number of participants with post-Baseline vital sign values of potential clinical concern who did not have values of potential clinical concern at Baseline are summarized. If the change from Baseline is a decrease greater than the threshold, it is categorized as "low." If the change from Baseline is an increase greater than the threshold, it is categorized ad "high."

    Measured: Baseline; Months 1, 3, and 6

  5. Number of Participants With the Indicated Laboratory Parameter Values of Potential Clinical Concern at Month 6

    The number of participants with laboratory parameter values of potential clinical concern at Month 6 are summarized. The following are the laboratory values of potential clinical concern: alkaline phosphatase, High: >375 units/Liter (L); aspartate aminotransferase, High: >165 units/L; creatinine, High: >159 micromoles (µmol)/L; glucose, Low: <3 millimoles (mmol)/L; hematocrit, Low: <0.325; hemoglobin, Low: <91grams/L; phosphorus, High: >1.723 mmol/L; potassium, High: >6.3 mmol/L; sodium, Low: <130 mmol/L; total neutrophils, Low: <0.9 10^9 cells (GI)/L; blood urea nitrogen (BUN), High: >21mmol/L; uric acid, High: 654 µmol/L.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing denosumab in people with Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 11 sites in India.

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 20 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 7 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in India. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Dec 2013). 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?

Mean Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density at the Lumbar Spine at Month 6 (time frame: Baseline and Month 6). 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 7 Feb 2014.
