Denosumab Biosimilar Injection in Post Menopausal Women With Osteoporosis

Phase 3
Recruiting
Conditions
Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal
Interventions
Drug: Denosumab-Ref
Registration Number
NCT05419427
Lead Sponsor
Lambda Therapeutic Research Ltd.
Brief Summary

Denosumab of Intas is biosimilar denosumab candidate under development by Intas Pharmaceutical Limited (Biopharma Division). Denosumab of Intas is already approved by Indian drug licensing authority- Drug Controller General (India) for marketing in Indian population since 2018.As per regulatory requirement, a comparative clinical study to establish Pharmacokinetic, Pharmacodynamic and Immunogenicity equivalence is required to conclude therapeutic equivalence to obtain marketing authorization of a biosimilar investigational product. This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active controlled study in approximately 552postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

An extension of the study is planned after completion of the initial 1 year of treatment. This extension is with the objective of submitting data on safety, and Immunogenicity, after switching of Prolia treatment arm to either Prolia or Intas denosumab for 6 months. This switching data is applicable only for FDA submission. Only patients who have undergone PK assessment will be eligible for the extension phase.
