E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate if teriparatide 20 μg subcutaneously once daily is superior in reducing the incidence of new vertebral fractures during 24 months of therapy, when compared with risedronate 35 mg orally once weekly, in postmenopausal women with prevalent vertebral fragility fractures. |
L'obiettivo primario dello studio è valutare se la somministrazione giornaliera di teriparatide per iniezione sottocutanea alla dose di 20 mcg riduce l'incidenza di nuove fratture vertebrali durante i 24 mesi di terapia, quando comparata con la somministrazione settimanale di risedronato orale alla dose di 35 mg, in donne in postmenopausa con fratture vertebrali. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The key secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate if teriparatide 20 μg/day is superior in reducing the incidence of the following key outcomes during 24 months of therapy, when compared with risedronate 35 mg/week: 1. Incidence of pooled new and worsening vertebral fractures. 2. Incidence of pooled clinical fractures. 3. Incidence of non-vertebral fragility fractures. 4. Incidence of major non-vertebral fragility fractures: hip, radius, humerus, ribs, pelvis and ankle. |
Gli obiettivi secondari dello studio sono valutare se la somministrazione giornaliera di teriparatide per iniezione sottocutanea alla dose di 20 mcg, quando comparata con la somministrazione settimanale di risedronato orale alla dose di 35 mg,è superiore nel ridurre l'incidenza dei seguenti outcomes: Incidenza di nuove fratture vertebrali o peggioramento di quelle esistenti. Incidenza ni fratture cliniche Incidenza della fragilità non-vertebrale Incidenza delle maggiori fratture non vertebrali quali bacino, radio, omero, coste, pelvi e anche. |

In the opinion of the investigator, is willing to be trained and to use the pen injector daily, is able to satisfactorily use a pen-type injection delivery system, or is willing to receive daily subcutaneous injections from a caregiver who has been trained to use the pen injector. |
Donne di età maggiore o uguale a 45 anni in postmenopausa al momento dell'ingresso nello studio, per le quali il ciclo mestruale si assente da almeno 2 anni, e che abbiano sufficiente motilità per completare le visite di studio. Donne di età inferiore ai 55 anni che abbiano ricevuto un'ooforectomia non chiaramente documentata dovranno confermare il loro status di postmenopausa confermato livelli di FSH sierico inferiori a 40IU/L e di estradiolo sierico inferiori a 20 pg/mL o minori di 73 pmol/L. Un minimo di due fratture vertebrali moderate (SQ2) o di 1 severa (SQ3). BMD della spina lombare AP, del bacino e del collo del femore inferiore o uguale ad 1.5 SD sotto la media per donne giovani sane, non ispaniche e caucasiche (T-score minore o uguale ad 1.5 SD).I valori assoluti di BMD verranno applicati per l'elegibilità dei pazienti. Non esistano barriere linguistiche o cooperative per la compliant alle visite; abbiano dato consenso all'arruolamento dopo essere stati informati delle procedure mediche e cliniche cui verranno sottoposti. Nell'opinione degli investigatori, abbiano la volontà di ricevere le istruzioni necessarie per l'utilizzo della penna per l'iniezione giornaliera, e siano sufficientemente in grado di utilizzare il dispositivo, o abbiano la volontà di ricevere tale procedura da parte di una terza persona opportunamente istruita. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
