Trial Outcomes & Findings for 1 Year Open-label Extension to CZOL446H2337 Safety and Efficacy Trial of Zoledronic Acid Twice Yearly in Osteoporotic Children Treated With Glucocorticoids (NCT NCT01197300)

NCT ID: NCT01197300

Last Updated: 2019-09-20

Results Overview

Analysis of absolute and relative frequencies for treatment emergent Adverse Event (AE), Serious Adverse Event (SAE) and Deaths by primary System Organ Class (SOC) to demonstrate that zoledronic acid given long-term, over an additional 12 months from the Core study (CZOL446H2337), is safe for the treatment of osteoporotic children treated with glucocorticoids through the monitoring of relevant clinical and laboratory safety parameters.

Participant Flow

This study was conducted in 10 centers in 6 countries: Australia (1), Canada (4), Hungary (1), United Kingdom (1), Russian Federation (2), and South Africa (1).

This was an open label extension to the Core study CZOL446H2337 (NCT00799266), where all patients received zoledronic acid. However, the study groups from the Core study were used to compare the patient populations within this extension phase, who received the same treatment under each particular group.

Population: The Full Analysis population, which consisted of all randomized patients who had both Core Baseline and at least one post-baseline lumbar spine BMD Z-score in the Extension study, was considered.

Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Z-score was determined by the central imaging vendor at the final visit of Core study (Visit 8) or at 1st infusion visit (Visit 9), and thereafter at Visit 12 (Month 18) and Visit 15 (Month 24) (final Extension Study visit/EOS) of Extension study. The methods to be used to measure Lumbar Spine BMD Z-score were described in the respective DXA Manuals provided by central imaging vendor. Positive changes from Core baseline indicated an improvement in condition.

Vertebral morphometry (or concave index) was calculated using the average ratio between mid-height and posterior height from L1 to L4 and performed by a central reader. A new morphometric vertebral fractures during the 12 month Extension Period was defined as a morphometric vertebral fracture present at Month 24 X-ray which was not present at the Extension Baseline (Baseline 2).

Timeframe: Month 15, Month 18, Month 21, Month 24

Population: The Full Analysis population, which consisted of all randomized patients who had both Core Baseline and at least one post-baseline lumbar spine BMD Z-score in the Extension study, was considered.

Pain was evaluated at each visit (at office and telephone visit) at the final visit of the Core study and first visit of the Extension study (Visit 9), Visits 11 (Month 15), 12 (Month 18), 14 (Month 21) and 15 (Month 24) using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised (FPS-R). Children were selecting the face that best fits their pain. The pain score ranged from 0 (No Pain) to 10 (Very Much Pain). The reduction in pain from Core baseline by visit was evaluated based on whether or not patients had a decrease in their FPS-R from baseline. If pain remained the same or worsened from baseline a patient was classified as '0' and if the pain scale decreased then the patient was classified as '1'.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline 1 (Visit 1 of the Core Study) and Baseline 2 (Visit 9 of the Extension Study) through Month 24 (Visit 15/Final Extension Visit)

Population: The Full Analysis population, which consisted of all randomized patients who had both Core Baseline and at least one post-baseline lumbar spine BMD Z-score in the Extension study, was considered.

Left postero-anterior (PA) hand/wrist X-ray were taken at the final visit of Core study and at Visit 15/EOS (Month 24) to assess bone age. The change in 2nd metacarpal cortical width at Month 24 relative to the respective Baseline was calculated. If a fracture of the left upper extremity precluded radiographic imaging, (or precluded this X-ray in the Core study) then the right hand was evaluated for this purpose. In this case, an image of the right hand was carried out at both Visit 8 and at Visit 15/EOS (Month 24). The information was used in the assessment of bone density.
