Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluation of the Effects of Teriparatide on Skeleton Images in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis (NCT NCT00259298)

NCT ID: NCT00259298

Last Updated: 2010-08-11

Results Overview

Skeletal plasma clearance is defined as the volume of plasma cleared of tracer (99m Tc-MDP) by the skeleton per unit time (milliliter/minute). Kbone is the rate constant representing plasma clearance of tracer to bone. The Patlak plot method was used to evaluate whole skeleton 99mTc-MDP skeletal plasma clearance (Kbone).

Skeletal uptake describes the percent uptake of radionuclide tracer by the skeleton when compared to baseline or other post-baseline measures. Skeletal uptake is defined as percentage of uptake of 99mTc-MDP 4 hours after injection. This value differs from skeletal plasma clearance measurements because it only quantifies the amount of 99mTc-MDP taken up by bone without consideration of concentration of tracer in the plasma.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months

Population: All participants with a baseline observation and at least 1 post-baseline observation.

Changes in focal uptake (localized, defined areas of uptake) were visually scored and compared to baseline or other post-baseline assessments. Changes were rated on a scale from 0-4: 0=no clinically significant focal areas of skeletal uptake; 1=focal areas affecting \<1% of skeleton; 2=focal areas affecting \>=5% of skeleton; 3=focal areas affecting \>=20% of skeleton; 4=focal areas affecting \>=50% of skeleton.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline, 3 months, 18 months, 24 months

Population: All participants with a baseline observation and at least 1 post-baseline observation.

Changes in diffuse uptake were determined by comparing diffuse uptake to baseline or other post-baseline observations. Diffuse uptake indicates response to therapy (during active treatment, increased diffuse uptake was expected; after the 6-month withdrawal period, decreased diffuse uptake was expected). Qualitative visual scoring of changes in the bone scan images were performed jointly by 3 reviewers who classified changes in the whole skeleton into 4 groups as follows: possible decreased response, no response, possible response, and definite response.
