BMD by DEXA with a T-score of -2.5 or lower on lumbar spine or T-score at the lumbar spine, femoral neck or total hip -2.0 or below, together with one or more vertebral fractures documented by lateral spine radiographs.

V. Have signed the informed consent

Exclusion criteria

-

Exclusion Criteria:

I Bone alkaline phosphatase in the blood above the normal limit without any explanation.

II. Liver disease ( or ALT> 2 x ). III. Renal disease (serum creatinine> 2.0 mg / dl) and / or \<30 ml / min IV. Hypercalcemia ([Ca]> 10.5 mg / dL). Patients with elevated PTH in the presence of albumin-corrected calcium within normal values can be re-evaluated.

V. Elevated blood PTH ([PTH]> 65 pg / ml) Patients with elevated PTH in the presence of albumin-corrected calcium within normal values can be re-evaluated.

VI. • Deficiency of vitamin D (25-OH vitamin D \<16 ng / ml) or excess vitamin D (above 80 ng / ml blood). Patients who did not meet the inclusion criteria for vitamin D may receive a supplement (vitamin D) and be re-evaluated.

VII. • Anemia (hematocrit \<32%).

VIII. • History of cancer (except basal cell carcinoma) or radiotherapy.

IX. Severe cardiopulmonary disease, including coronary heart disease: unstable angina, heart failure class III or IV or any other condition that the investigator believes may prevent participation safely and complete the protocol procedures.

X. Major psychiatric disease that in the opinion of the investigator, would prevent to give properinformed consent or complete the study procedures.

XI. Excessive alcohol or substance abuse that in the opinion of the investigator prevents giving or complete proper protocol procedures.

XII. Congenital or acquired bone disease, other than osteoporosis (including osteomalacia, hyperparathyroidism or Paget's disease)

XIII. Regarding the history of ingestion of oral bisphosphonates: After assessment of adequate adherence (compliance greater than 75%), if the patient received six months of treatment, she should have a bisphosphonate-free period of six months. If she took more than six months, the bisphosphonate-free period must be 12 months.

XIV. Current or within the last 3 months before study entry estrogen use, selective estrogen receptor modulators use or calcitonin use in therapeutic doses.

XV. Current use of systemic (oral or parenteral) for more than 14 days in the last 6 months. Vaginal estrogen and isoflavones are permitted .

XVI.Current or previous use of teriparatide, other PTH analogues as patches or injectables, strontium, fluorine or any intravenous bisphosphonate therapeutic dose, XVII. Known to pharmaceuticals derived from bacterial cells. XVIII. Hypersensitivity to teriparatide or to any of its . XIX.Nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis in activity, according to the investigator opinion in the 5 years prior to randomization.

XX.Inflammatory bowel disease, malabsorption syndrome or any sign of intestinal calcium malabsorption

XXI. Treatment with androgens or anabolic steroids in the 6 months prior to randomization.

XXII. Any medical condition that in the investigator opinion would contraindicate treatment with an drug.

XXIII. Treatment with coumarin and indandione derivatives in the 3 months prior to randomization or treatment with heparins (at doses> 10,000 U / day) for more than 30 days in the 6 months prior to randomization.

XXIV.Treatment with any other drug known to affect bone metabolism, in therapeutic doses,in the 6 months prior to randomization.

XXV.Treatment with an investigational drug during the month prior to randomization. -

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(8)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Creatinine clearance (CrCl)

How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 22, 2014, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
