What is being measured

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

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

    Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Images were assessed by a central reader.

    Measured: Baseline and month 6

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percent Change From Baseline to Month 6 in Bone Mineral Density at the Total Hip

    Bone mineral density (BMD) at the total hip was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Images were assessed by a central reader.

    Measured: Baseline and month 6

  2. Percent Change From Baseline to Month 6 in Bone Mineral Density at the Femoral Neck

    Bone mineral density (BMD) at the femoral neck was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Images were assessed by a central reader.

    Measured: Baseline and month 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Romosozumab in people with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis, run by Amgen at 10 sites in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in South Korea. 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 5 Jul 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 to Month 6 in Bone Mineral Density at the Lumbar Spine (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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02791516, 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 7 Oct 2019.
