About this study

Official title: TRANSLATIONAL THERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH OSTEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA - A PILOT TRIAL ON TREATMENT WITH THE RANKL-ANTIBODY DENOSUMAB

Pilot study to assess the efficacy of a therapy with the RANKL-antibody denosumab in children 5-10 years of age with mutation in COL1A1 or COL1A2 leading to Osteogenesis imperfecta. Efficacy will be assessed by DXA measurements at the lumbar spine of the areal bone mineral density (BMD) which is the most frequently used parameter in trials investigating osteoporosis.

The hypothesis of the study is:

Osteoclastic activity which is increased in OI could be reduced by inhibition of osteoclast maturation. Denosumab inhibits maturation of the osteoclasts by inhibiting RANKL. BMD could be increased during a 36 week treatment course with denosumab measured after 48 weeks.

What participants receive

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

  • DenosumabDrug

    Denosumab will be given subcutaneously in a dosage of 1mg/kg body weight every 12 weeks. 4 interventions are planned until trial week 36. There is no control group planned.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes of bone mineral density (BMD [g/cm2]) in lumbar spine after 36 weeks of treatment with denosumab. Changes will be calculated between baseline and study week 48.

    Measured: 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Decrease of osteoclastic activity measured by urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD).

    Measured: 14 days (DPD)

  2. Parathormone in study week 12, 24, 36 and 48 compared to baseline.

    Descriptive statistical analysis

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. N-Telopeptides in study week 12, 24, 36 and 48 compared to baseline.

    descriptive statistical analysis

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Osteocalcin in study week 12, 24, 36 and 48.

    descriptive statistical analysis

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Denosumab in people with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, run by University of Cologne at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 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 27 Jan 2015. 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 Germany. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Changes of bone mineral density (BMD [g/cm2]) in lumbar spine after 36 weeks of treatment with denosumab. Changes will be calculated between baseline and study week 48. (time frame: 48 weeks). 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 NCT01799798, 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 27 Jan 2015.
