MiDeTe - microRNA Levels Under Denosumab and Teriparatide Therapy in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Type 2
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Interventions
Drug: Prolia, 60 Mg/mL Subcutaneous Solution
Registration Number
NCT03472846
Lead Sponsor
Medical University of Vienna
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is the quantitative determination of bone-specific microRNAs in the serum of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis during antiresorptive or osteoanabolic therapy.

Detailed Description

Primarily the influence of the therapeutic treatment on the microRNA concentration in the serum (treatment-response) and the relation between microRNA serum levels and changes of the bone mineral density will be investigated.

These data will help to examine the use of microRNAs as novel diagnostic biomarkers for the diagnosis of osteoporosis and targeted therapeutic treatment of patients.
