About this study

Official title: CLCF1 Gene Associated With Postmenopausal Osteoporosis of Kidney Yin Deficiency Syndrome Regulating the Bone Osteoimmunology Mechanism by the OPG/RANKL/RANK Signal System

For nearly 112 million patients with osteoporosis in China, it is of great significance for preventing and treating by clearly understanding the molecular mechanism of kidney deficiency. Thus, the research group has demonstrated in the earlier research that CLCF1 is an associated gene that can regulate JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway and impact bone metabolism for kidney yin deficiency of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP). To make clear understanding of the direct-acting mechanism of CLCF1 for bone metabolism, this study intends to: ①observe impacts of low expression of CLCF1 upon immunities in mice and OPG/RANKL/RANK signal system using the technology of adenovirus associated virus. ②explore impacts of over-expression and silencing of CLCF1 on B lymphocytes by culcuturing the cells together with osteoblasts. ③ analyze the impacts of treating kidney yin deficiency of PMOP by Liuwei Dihuang pill upon immunities and OPG/RANKL/RANK system, and discuss the mechanism of regulating bone metabolism by CLCF1 by OPG/RANKL/RANK system via the bridge between immune system and bone metabolism, so as to demonstrate if the hypothesis of this study that "the molecular osteoimmunological mechanism of kidney yin deficiency of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is possibly closely related to the impacts of CLCF1 regulation of OPG/RANKL/RANK signal system on bone metabolism" is right or not.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Liuwei Dihuang Pill in people with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis, run by xuhuijuan at 1 site in China.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2017. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yao xin (0591-83570813, yjyllbgs@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

osteoporosis treatment within six months of study enrollment (time frame: Liuwei Dihuang Pills therapy(up to six months)). 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 27 Mar 2017.
