Official title

Phase II Study of Alendronate Sodium in Juvenile Osteoporosis (IND# 60,017)-Post Study Evaluation of Participants From Phase IIa and Phase IIb Clinical Study.

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The investigators earlier have shown that treatment of patients with juvenile osteoporosis with alendronate (Fosamax) for 12 months increased the bone density without side effects. In an open label study (10 patients) and double blind, crossover study (11 patients alendronate and 11 patients placebo), the investigators have further observed that alendronate increased the bone density significantly where as placebo (calcium and vitamin D) increased only minimally. These trials were completed. Thus, a post study is designed to evaluate the current status of the bone density and fractures after the patients discontinued the alendronate treatment. No treatment is involved.
