What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at the Lumbar Spine

    Bone mineral density was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans of the lumbar spine (L1-L4) and analyzed by a central imaging lab.

    Measured: Baseline and day 85

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at the Femoral Neck

    Bone mineral density was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans and analyzed by a central imaging lab.

    Measured: Baseline and day 85

  2. Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at the Total Hip

    Bone mineral density was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans and analyzed by a central imaging lab.

    Measured: Baseline and day 85

  3. Percent Change From Baseline in Serum Type-1 Aminoterminal Propeptide (P1NP)

    Measured: Baseline and days 4, 15, 29, 43, 57, 71, and 85

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in Serum C-telopeptide (sCTX)

    Measured: Baseline and days 4, 15, 29, 43, 57, 71, and 85

  5. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant.

    Laboratory value changes that required treatment or adjustment in current therapy were considered adverse events.

    A treatment-related adverse event (TRAE) was an adverse event assessed by the investigator as possibly related to the investigational product, indicated by a "yes" response to the question: Is there a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the investigational product?

    A serious adverse event was defined as an adverse event that met at least 1 of the following serious criteria:

    • fatal,
    • life-threatening,
    • required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization,
    • resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity,
    • congenital anomaly/birth defect, and/or
    • other medically important serious event.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug up to day 85

  6. Number of Participants Who Developed Anti-romosozumab Antibodies

    Two validated assays were used to detect the presence of anti-romosozumab antibodies. An electrochemiluminescent bridging immunoassay was used to detect binding antibodies (screening assay) and confirm antibodies (confirmatory assay) capable of binding romosozumab. Samples testing positive in the immunoassay were further tested in a competitive binding bioassay for neutralizing activity against romosozumab. If a sample was positive for binding antibodies and demonstrated neutralizing activity, the participant was defined as positive for neutralizing antibodies. Participants who developed anti-romosozumab antibodies were those with a negative result at baseline and a positive result at any time postbaseline.

    Measured: Baseline and days 29, 57, and 85

  7. Mean Serum Concentration of Romosozumab

    Measured: Days 4, 15, 29, 43, 57, 71 and 85

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Romosozumab in people with Osteoporosis, run by Amgen at 9 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 3 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 26 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Mar 2019). 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?

Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at the Lumbar Spine (time frame: Baseline and day 85). 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 26 Mar 2019.
