Trial summary

The initiation of bisphosphonate therapy for osteoporosis requires an assessment of the oral status to prevent the risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw. This recommendation is sometimes a hindrance to the initiation of treatment or may be responsible for a delay in treatment or even the failure to initiate treatment. Read more about this study

About this study

The initiation of bisphosphonate therapy for osteoporosis requires an assessment of the oral status to prevent the risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw. This recommendation is sometimes a hindrance to the initiation of treatment or may be responsible for a delay in treatment or even the failure to initiate treatment. However, in the case of a severe osteoporotic fracture (femoral or humeral neck fracture, vertebral fracture or pelvic fracture), treatment must be rapid because of the major risk of refracture in the short term (multiplied by 5 in the 2 years following the fracture).

In the rheumatology department of the Nice University Hospital, the investigator team take care of patients with osteoporotic fractures either directly in hospital or referred by the orthopedics department as part of a care program. For these patients, the team perform an etiological assessment, bone densitometry and evaluation of the oral status with dental panoramic and tele-expertise to determine if there is an indication to perform surgical care before starting the treatment.

Therefore, the investigator aimed to describe the number of patients requiring dental surgery befor the initiation of bisphosphonate or denosumab treatment before to introduce treatment for osteoporosis

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients requiring surgical dental care

    describe the number of patients requiring surgical dental care before to start osteoporosis treatment vs the number of patients with a satisfactory oral assessment authorizing the immediate prescription of treatment

    Measured: 15 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Impact of dental care on osteoporosis treatment

    Delay of treatment implementation (in days)

    Measured: Change from baseline

  2. Impact of dental care on osteoporosis treatment

    New osteoportic fracture occurence (in day since treatment start)

    Measured: Change from baseline

  3. Impact of dental care on osteoporosis treatment

    Dental complications apperance

    Measured: Change from baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dental Condition and Osteoporosis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 9 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 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?

Number of patients requiring surgical dental care (time frame: 15 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 9 Feb 2023.
