About this study

Official title: Treatment of Severe Osteoporosis by Intravenous Infusion of Pre-osteoblastic Cells - An Open Pilot Study

Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, with a subsequent increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture.

Osteoporosis is one of the most common and debilitating chronic diseases, and a global health concern with a high prevalence not only in Western countries, but also in Asia and Latin America. Most efficacious anti-osteoporotic treatments either inhibit bone resorption like bisphosphonates or denosumab or increase bone formation like teripartide an anabolic agent. Anti-osteoporotic drugs have demonstrated safety and efficacy with an increase in bone mass and a decrease of fracture risk (at the hip) by 30 to 50% after 3 years of treatment (Black et al., 1996; Neer et al., 2001; Meunier et al., 2004). Despite the availability of pharmacological treatments, osteoporosis remains a significant health problem for patients who do not respond to the available treatments or fail to comply with their regimens.

The present phase 2a study aims to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of PREOB®, a proprietary population of autologous osteoblastic cells, in the treatment of osteoporotic patients who do not respond to pharmacological treatments.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cell biodistribution after intravenous infusion as assessed by SPECT/CT scan

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Potential occurrence of any AE or SAE, related to the product, using patient open non-directive questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory measurements

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Pain measured by the Visual Analogue Scale

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Well-being score using SF-36 questionnaire

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Occurrence of new vertebral fractures as assessed by X-ray

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Bone mineral density evolution as assessed by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Measurement of bone formation and resorption markers

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PREOB® Intravenous Infusion in people with Severe Osteoporosis, run by Erasme University Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 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 28 Aug 2019. 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 Belgium. 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?

Cell biodistribution after intravenous infusion as assessed by SPECT/CT scan (time frame: 72 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Aug 2019.
