NCT04249232

Brief Summary

This is a prospective randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, phase 2, three-month study of the efficacy of abaloparatide in postmenopausal women and men ≥ 50 years of age with acute fractures of the pelvis (n=78). The primary outcome is CT image based evidence of fracture healing. The secondary aims are pain and physical performance measures at 3 months. This study will be extended with 9 months of open label abaloparatide to determine if any potential differences between the placebo and abaloparatide groups during the 3 months of treatment are evident and persist over time, even in patients who use abaloparatide after the three-month placebo controlled intervention.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficacy for fracture healing- Measured by participant cortical bridging scores

    Score for cortical bridging on a CT exam at 3 months in abaloparatide versus placebo groups.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Efficacy measure of participant pain score as assessed by the Numeric Rating Scale

    8 weeks

  • Efficacy measure of participant pain score as assessed by the Numeric Rating Scale

    12 months

  • Participant lower extremity function based on a score from the Continuous Summary Physical Performance Score. The measure of lower extremity physical function is an efficacy variable.

    3 months

  • Participant lower extremity function based on a score from the Continuous Summary Physical Performance Score. The measure of lower extremity physical function is an efficacy variable.

    12 months

  • Participant (percent) reporting narcotic use for pain

    8 weeks

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

abaloparatide prefilled syringe

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Abaloparatide-SC is supplied as a liquid, 3120 micrograms per 1.56 milliliter (2000 mcg/mL) in a single patient multi-use prefilled pen. The prefilled pen delivers 30 doses of abaloparatide, each containing 80 mcg of abaloparatide in 40 microliters of a sterile, clear, colorless solution. To be administered subcutaneously daily.

Drug: Abaloparatide 80 micrograms per Pen dose

Placebo prefilled syringe

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

For the placebo-SC a prefilled multi-use pen injector cartridge is designed to deliver 30 doses of placebo each in 40 microliters of sterile, clear, colorless solution to be administered subcutaneously daily.

Drug: Placebo prefilled injector pen

Interventions

prefilled injector pen to deliver 80 micrograms daily subcutaneously

Also known as: Tymlos

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Postmenopausal women and men \>50 years of age with acute pelvic fractures, occurring with minimal trauma, presenting to Mount Sinai, New York University, New York Presbyterian-Queens, Hospital for Special Surgery, or New York Hospital (Cornell Medical) within one month of the onset of symptoms.

You may not qualify if:

  • Persons unable to complete the NRS and other surveys based on assessment by the study doctor.
  • Previously (prior to fracture) non-ambulatory subjects
  • Hypersensitivity to ABALOPARATIDE
  • Patients with increased risk of osteosarcoma: Paget's disease, history of radiation treatment
  • Patients with active hypercalcemia based on serum calcium above the upper limit of normal.
  • Serum creatinine cannot be elevated more than 1.5 times above upper normal limit for age
  • Current diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism and other metabolic bone disease including osteogenesis imperfecta
  • Normal alkaline phosphatase levels will not be used as an entrance criterion because most fracture patients will have elevations due to the acute fracture. However, we will attempt to obtain lab tests from the period prior to fracture to determine if they were normal. If unexplained elevations in alkaline phosphatase (more than 1.5 times above the upper limit of normal) are found in labs prior to the fracture, we will exclude that subject.
  • Diagnosis of metastatic cancer within the past 10 years; primary bone cancer or multiple myeloma at any time. For other primary active non-skin cancers (diagnosed within the last 5 years), the patient's oncologist should be consulted to determine participant eligibility.

SAS datasets, a data dictionary, images of case report forms, SAS format library, the SAS program in which source data is recoded for analysis and data table summary descriptive statistics for data validation cross-check will be made available on an encrypted USB drive. A data sharing agreement is required.

Access Criteria
A data sharing agreement is required. Dr. Nieves and Dr. Lane will give priority to data sharing requests with the stated purpose of a) Teaching, b) replication or reanalysis of results reported in the primary paper, c) subgroup analyses to be used for the design of future research.
