About this study

Official title: A Multi Center, Randomized, Open-label, Parallel, Phase IV Clinical Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of MASI BONE S (Alendronate Sodium Trihydrate) in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis

This study aims to prove non-inferiority of the efficacy of Masibone S (alendronate sodium trihydrate 70mg, oral solution) on the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis compared to the efficacy of Fosamax (alendronate sodium 70mg, oral tablet). The effect of Masibone S and Fosamax on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis will be compared and analyzed. This study included a total 170 patients (85 per subgroup) for multi-center, randomized, open-label, parallel clinical trial. The drugs will be maintained for a total of 48 weeks. The primary endpoint is the difference of bone mineral density change at lumbar spine measured by DEXA between two groups.

What participants receive

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

  • Masibone SDrug

    The investigators will evaluate the change of bone mineral density at lumbar spine measured by DEXA after 48 weeks of alendronate sodium trihydrate 70mg (oral solution) 1 bottle weekly and cholecalciferol 1000U/calcium 100mg 1T daily use.

  • FosamaxDrug

    The investigators will evaluate the change of bone mineral density at lumbar spine measured by DEXA after 48 weeks of alendronate sodium 70mg (oral tablet) 1T weekly and cholecalciferol 1000U/calcium 100mg 1T daily use.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of bone mineral density at lumbar spine

    DEXA is used to evaluate the change of bone mineral density at lumbar spine after 48 weeks of drug intervention compared to those at baseline

    Measured: 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change of serum levels of bone turnover markers

    Serum levels bone turnover markers (CTX and P1NP) is measured at baseline and after 24 and 48 weeks of drug intervention and the change of serum levels of CTX and P1NP is evaluated.

    Measured: 24 and 48 weeks

  2. Adherence to drug

    The proportion of patients who compliantly uses drugs after 24 and 48 weeks of intervention will be evaluated.

    Measured: 24 and 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Masibone S and Fosamax in people with Osteoporosis, run by Yonsei University at 1 site 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2022. 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 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Yumie Rhee (+82-2-2228-0883, yumie@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of bone mineral density at lumbar spine (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 NCT05387200, 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 31 May 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
