Study summary

This is a 12 months, randomized, multicenter, open-label, parallel-group study in postmenopausal women and male aged 50 years or old with osteoporosis or osteopenia in China to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different anti-osteoporpsis intervention strategies.

Read the detailed description

This is a 12 months,randomized, multicenter, open-label, pragmatic-group study in postmenopausal women and male aged 50 years or old with osteoporosis or osteopenia in China to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different anti-osteoporpsis intervention strategies, including

  • Group1: Basic treatment group (elemental calcium 600mg/ day + vitamin D 1000IU/day)
  • Group2: Basic treatment+ anti-osteoporosis drug group (alendronate, zoledronate, tripopeptide, denosumab, activated vitamin D, menatetrenone soft capsules according to the patient's condition)
  • Group3: Basic treatment + non-drug treatment group(diet, exercise, rehabilitation therapy).

Eligibility for participation will be determined by medical history, physical examination, and laboratory results obtained during a screening visit. About 180 postmenopausal women and elderly male with osteoporosis or osteopenia will be included in this study.

All subjects will be given informed consent before starting any examination and test. The following data of all subject will be collected: liver and kidney function, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, fasting lipid profile, serum calcium, serum phosphate, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxy vitamin D, bone turnover markers(BTMs) (inculding serum procollagen type I N-propeptide, serum C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen,osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase), thoracic and lumbar spine X-ray, bone mineral density(BMD) by dual energy X-ray.

Then they will be randomized into three groups at a 1:1 ratio. Every group will be given calcium carbonate and vitamin D. In the group 2, the medication will be decided by the doctor according to the patients' condition. Particularly, denosumab has not been approved for male adaptation, we will sign an additional informed consent.

All subjects will be followed by visiting clinic every three months and complete the examinations to assess the safety and efficacy. Safety indexes: liver and kidney function, urine routine test and 24-h urine calcium. Efficacy indexes: BMD change, BTMs changes and fracture reduction. All subjects will be followed 12 months and data will be collected and analyzed.
