IBANDRONATE SUMMARY
Ibandronate sodium is a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate that inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption.
Ibandronate sodium is indicated for the following:
Treatment of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Ibandronate Sodium Injection is indicated for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, ibandronate sodium increases bone mineral density (BMD) and reduces the incidence of vertebral fractures [see Clinical Studies].
Important Limitations of Use
The safety and effectiveness of Ibandronate Sodium Injection for the treatment of osteoporosis are based on clinical data of one year duration. The optimal duration of use has not been determined. All patients on bisphosphonate therapy should have the need for continued therapy re-evaluated on a periodic basis. Patients at low-risk for fracture should be considered for drug discontinuation after 3 to 5 years of use. Patients who discontinue therapy should have their risk for fracture re-evaluated periodically.

Study Comparing Ibandronate Versus Placebo in Hip Osteonecrosis [Recruiting]
Aseptic osteonecrosis of the hip (AOH) concern 1 Swiss young adult to 1000 (30-40 years
old). They are responsible to a severe joint destruction and in the majority of cases a
joint replacement. To the hip, we can distinguish 4 stages of osteonecrosis according to
Ficat: 1, 2, 3, 4. Stage 3 and 4 AOH management are unanimous surgical. But management of
stage 1 and 2 are unclear. Bisphophonates are mainly used for bone and osteoporosis
diseases. They decrease the bone turn over, and the risk of fracture. They also decrease the
bone marrow oedema and the pain associated to this oedema. Ibandronate is a bisphosphonate
with a rapid effect, a short half-life, easy to manage, and with few side effects. We
designed a double-blind prospective randomized trial aiming to evaluate the efficacy of an
infusion of ibandronate versus placebo on pain and AOH progression in patients with stage 1
and 2 AOH. Our hypothesis is that there will be a pain reduction >=20 mm on the VAS scale
(SD 10mm) in the ibandronate group versus placebo, and a non radiological progression in the
treated group.

Study To Investigate Patient Preference On Dosing In Ibandronate And Risedronate In Korean Women With Postmenopausal Osteoporosis [Completed]
This is a randomized open label, multi-centre study for Korean women with postmenopausal
osteoporosis, evaluating the preference for either the once-monthly dosing of ibandronate or
the once-weekly dosing of risedronate.
Eligible subjects will be randomised either ibandronate monthly regimen or risedronate
weekly regimen.
Treatment period consists of 3 month with ibandronate 150mg and additional 12 week with
risedronate 35 mg or vice versa.
After taking the first interventional medicine for 3 months or 12 weeks completely, a
subject changes the treatment arm. There is no washout period.
A Study Comparing Monthly Bonviva (Ibandronate) and Weekly Risedronate in Women With Post-Menopausal Osteoporosis. [Completed]
This 2-sequence crossover study will evaluate patient reported preference for once-monthly
ibandronate (150 mg orally) as opposed to once-weekly risedronate (35 mg orally).
Participants with post-menopausal osteoporosis will be randomized to receive one product
for three months (12 weeks). They will then cross over to receive the other treatment for
three months (12 weeks). The anticipated time on study treatment is 6 months (plus a 15-day
follow up period), and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
