Denosumab (DMAB) Discontinuation And Switching In Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis (GIOP): A Pilot Study

NCT04177940

RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

Investigators will test the hypothesis that an increase in bone turnover markers (e.g. carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks (CTX) and P1NP) in patients currently taking chronic glucocorticoids will be attenuated more in those who switch from denosumab to "late" zoledronic acid (9 months after last denosumab dose) compared to participants randomized to "early" zoledronic acid (6 months after last denosumab dose) or weekly alendronate (6 months after last denosumab dose).
