Information source: Procter and Gamble
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on June 20, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Intervention: risedronate sodium (Actonel) (Drug); Placebo (Drug)
Phase: Phase 3
Status: Active, not recruiting
Sponsored by: Procter and Gamble Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Dietrich H Wenderoth, MD, Study Director, Affiliation: Procter and Gamble
Summary
Children with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) have bone pain, low bone mass and fractures.
There are no approved drugs for the treatment of OI in children, even though some intravenous
(IV) bisphosphonates are used off-label in some countries. In a single dose, pharmacokinetic
study, data showed that risedronate was well tolerated in 28 children with OI. This three
year study will test the safety and efficacy of risedronate in the treatment of children with
OI. For the first year, patients will be randomized to the risedronate and placebo groups in
a 2: 1 ratio (two groups will receive risedronate, and one group will receive placebo). For
the second and third years of the study, all patients will receive risedronate.
