New treatment option for Osteoporosis
Official title Step-down Therapy After Long-term Osteoporosis Treatment
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07281586
What this study is testing
What is zoledronate?
zoledronate is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for osteoporosis.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Maintaining bone mineral density (BMD) after discontinuing denosumab (Prolia) is a major clinical challenge, as rapid bone loss commonly occurs when treatment is stopped, especially after more than three years of use. Standard sequential therapy with bisphosphonates such as zoledronic acid (Aclasta) often fails to fully prevent BMD decline, and most bone loss occurs within the first year, making effective suppression of the rebound effect essential.
