The Effect Of Oral Ibandronate In Male Osteoporosis

Brief Summary
Male osteoporosis is a common and important clinical problem, associated with significant morbidity, mortality and societal expense. Approximately 10% of men =65 years of age are osteoporotic. The proposed study will evaluate efficacy and safety of oral ibandronate given 150 mg once-monthly for 12 months versus placebo in men with primary osteoporosis. Less frequent, once monthly, dosing is expected to improve patient's treatment adherence compared to a weekly dosing regimen.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Ambulatory men at least 30 years old at screening, who are diagnosed with primary, idiopathic or hypogonadal osteoporosis according to the following criteria: Femoral neck (FN) BMD T-score \< -2.0 and LS BMD T-score \< -1.0 OR LS BMD T-score \< -2.0 and FN BMD T-score \< -1.0 and BMD T-score \> 4.0 at any site
- Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are willing and able to comply with the protocol requirements
- Subjects who have signed an informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Significant medical conditions or laboratory abnormalities, which in the opinion of the investigator may preclude the patient's ability to complete the study
- Malignant disease diagnosed within the previous 5 years (except resected basal cell cancer)
- Disease/disorder known to influence bone metabolism or cause of secondary osteoporosis e.g., chronic gastrointestinal or liver disease, renal disease, chronic alcoholism, malabsorption syndrome
- Hypersensitivity to any component of ibandronate
- Inability to stand or sit in an upright position for at least 60 minutes
- Inability to swallow a tablet without breaking it
- Vitamin D deficiency (serum 25-OH vitamin D \<20ng/mL (equivalent to 50nmol/L) at screening
- Any prevalent osteoporotic vertebral fracture identified by total spine x-ray (Total spine x-ray consists of lateral and PA films of the thoracic \& lumbar spine)
- Subjects who are receiving testosterone supplementation for \< 2 years (if applicable) (Patients who are identified with clinical signs of hypogonadism at screening and are started on testosterone supplementation will be excluded from participation.)
- Contraindications to calcium or vitamin D therapy
- Administration of any investigational drug within 30 days preceding the first dose of the study drug
- Previous treatment with an oral bisphosphonate within the last six months, OR more than one month of cumulative treatment within the last year, OR more than three months of cumulative treatment within the last two years AND/OR treatment with intravenous bisphosphonate within one year.
- Treatment with PTH or similar anabolic agent for osteoporosis within the last two years
- Treatment with other drugs affecting bone metabolism within the last six months prior to Screening including:
- Chronic systemic glucocorticoid treatment except for topical treatment at a frequency of up to twice per week
- +24 more criteria
