About this study

Official title: Denosumab vs Zoledronate Efficacy in Osteopenic Patients With Lumbar Degenerative Disease After Lumbar Fusion Surgery

The aim of the study was to compare denosumab and zoledronate efficacy in bone mass, bone turnover markers (BTMs), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for leg and back, EuroQol Five-Dimension (EQ-5D) scores, Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis-31 (QUALEFFO-31) scores, and Roland-Morris Disability Functioning Questionnaire (RMDQ) scores, secondary fracture, complications and adverse events after lumbar fusion.

Read the detailed description

Lumbar degenerative disease including spinal stenosis and lumbar spondylolisthesis were the most common reason lead to older patients disability, which was the main indication for older patients to perform lumbar fusion surgery. For patients with lumbar degenerative disease older than 50 years old, a proportion of patients had osteoporosis. The trial aims to investigate whether denosumab versus zoledronate acid in osteopenic patients with lumbar fusion surgery.

Being tested
Denosumab 60 mg/ml [Prolia], Zoledronate

What is being measured

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

  1. Lumbar bone mineral density(BMD)

    Lumbar vertebral (L1 to L4, except the surgery segment) BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via dual energy X-ray

    Measured: up to 12 months

  2. Total hip BMD

    Total hip BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months via dual-energy X-ray

    Measured: up to 12 months

  3. Femoral neck BMD

    Femoral neck BMD were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 month via dual-energy X-ray

    Measured: up to 12 months

  4. Procollagen type 1 n-terminal propeptide (P1NP)

    Bone formation marker, P1NP were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery

    Measured: up to 12 months

  5. C-terminal cross-linked type 1 collagen terminal peptide (CTX)

    Bone resorption marker, CTX were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 months after surgery

    Measured: up to 12 months

  6. Visual analog scale (VAS) back

    The VAS score for back pain were determined at baseline, 6 and 12 month. Use a ruler about 10cm long, one side is marked with "0" and the other "10" respectively. A score of 0 indicates no pain, 10 indicates the most unbearable pain.

    Measured: up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire

    The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire is scored by 24 adding up the number of items checked "yes" on different low back pain-related daily activity disabilities. Total scores range from 0 to 24, with higher scores 24 indicating a higher level of disability related to low back pain and lowest 0 represents no back pain.

    Measured: up to 12 month

  2. The QUALEFFO-31 Questionnaire

    The Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis-31 (QUALEFFO-31), which contains three domains including pain, physical function, and mental function. This scale is assessed on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 indicating the highest QoL and 100 the lowest.

    Measured: up to 12 month

  3. The EQ-5D Questionnaire

    The EuroQol five-dimension (EQ-5D) questionnaire evaluates health status consisting five dimensions: mobility, selfcare, performance of usual activities, pain or discomfort, and anxiety or depression. After conversion, the index was between 0 and 1.0 (minimum score: 0, indicating worst health state; full score:1.0, indicating full health).

    Measured: up to 12 month

  4. New fracture rate

    New fracture rate containing vertebral fracture and non-vertebral fracture was assessed at 12 month after surgery. The lowest score was 0, the highest score was 100%. The lower score 0 represents no secondary fracture.

    Measured: up to 12 month

  5. Complications

    Complications including cage subsidence, pedicle screw loosening, infection, peripheral nerve injury, and recurrent symptoms were assessed.

    Measured: up to 12 month

  6. Adverse events

    The main adverse events including deep venous thrombosis, pneumonia, acute renal failure, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, influenza, transfer to intensive care unit, joint pain, headache, nausea, osteonecrosis of the jaw, atypical femoral fracture and rash.

    Measured: up to 12 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Denosumab 60 mg/ml [Prolia] and Zoledronate in people with Osteopenia and Lumbar Spondylolisthesis, run by Shenzhen People's Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 21 Feb 2023. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hongyu Wang, Doctor (18241651300, wanghongyu790039663@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lumbar bone mineral density(BMD) (time frame: up to 12 months). The study lists 6 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 21 Feb 2023.
