About this study

Official title: Assessment of Body Composition Via Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry Bone Densitometry: Cross Calibration and Reproducibility Between the "Stratos DR" and "Discovery A" Bone Densitometers

The main objective of this study is to validate the measurement characteristics of a new bone densitometer, the Stratos DR:

  • Via cross calibration to the results of body composition (BC) measurement results to those of a reference device (the "Discover A" by Hologic) in terms of body fat percentage, lean mass percentage of total body mass and for different subregions (left and right arms, left and right sides, lumbar and thoracic spine, pelvis, left and right legs, head, android area, gynecoid area, visceral region).
  • And by the evaluation of the reproducibility of the BC measurement results in terms of fat mass and lean mass.
Read the detailed description

The secondary objective of this study is to cross calibrate the measures of bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) from the Stratos DR against those of the Discovery A on the whole body and its subregions.

Being tested
Whole body exam using the "Discovery A", First whole body exam using the "Stratos DR", Second whole body exam using the "Stratos DR"

What participants receive

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

  • Whole body exam using the "Discovery A"Device

    Whole body exam using the "Discovery A" machine made by Hologic.

  • First whole body exam using the "Stratos DR"Device

    First whole body exam using the "Stratos DR" machine made by the DMS group.

  • Second whole body exam using the "Stratos DR"Device

    Second whole body exam using the "Stratos DR" machine made by the DMS group. This second exam is required for reproducibility purposes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lin concordance coefficient for fat mass

    The cross calibration between the two devices (Stratos vs Discovery) in terms of fat mass and lean mass is estimated by the appreciation of the Lin concordance coefficient.

    Measured: Day 0

  2. Lin concordance coefficient for lean mass

    The cross calibration between the two devices (Stratos vs Discovery) in terms of fat mass and lean mass is estimated by the appreciation of the Lin concordance coefficient.

    Measured: Day 0

  3. RMS-%CV (root-mean-square coefficient of variation) for total fat mass

    Reproducibility will be evaluated in terms of RMS-% CV for calculating the value of the least significant change (LSC). The values of RMS-%CV (root-mean-square coefficient of variation) of the total fat mass and total lean mass will be compared with the limit values recommended by the ISCD. (International Society for Clinical Densitometry)

    Measured: Day 0

  4. RMS-%CV (root-mean-square coefficient of variation) for total lean mass

    Reproducibility will be evaluated in terms of RMS-% CV for calculating the value of the least significant change (LSC). The values of RMS-%CV (root-mean-square coefficient of variation) of the total fat mass and total lean mass will be compared with the limit values recommended by the ISCD. (International Society for Clinical Densitometry)

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Lin's concordance coefficient for Bone Mineral Content

    The cross calibration between the two devices (Stratos vs Discovery) in terms of Bone Mineral Content and Bone Mineral Density will be estimated by the study of Lin's concordance coefficient.

    Measured: Day 0

  2. Lin's concordance coefficient for Bone Mineral Density

    The cross calibration between the two devices (Stratos vs Discovery) in terms of Bone Mineral Content and Bone Mineral Density will be estimated by the study of Lin's concordance coefficient.

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Whole body exam using the "Discovery A", First whole body exam using the "Stratos DR" and Second whole body exam using the "Stratos DR" in people with Osteodensitometry, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes at 1 site in France.

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 10 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 Nov 2025. 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 France. 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.

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?

Lin concordance coefficient for fat mass (time frame: Day 0). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02609191, 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 19 Nov 2025.
