Brief Summary: The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bisphosphonate Therapy for Osteogenesis Imperfecta OI We the researchers at Indiana University School of Medicine are characterizing the changes effected by oral bisphosphonate therapy and comparing them to a regimen of intravenous bisphosphonate therapy in a group of children with OI and also in children with other disorders that result in low bone mass and fractures
Detailed Description: The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bisphosphonate Therapy for Osteogenesis Imperfecta OI OI is an inherited disorder of collagen synthesis Collagen is the major structural protein of the matrix of tendons skin and bones Affected persons have low bone mineral density and experience multiple fractures and progressive bony deformity In its most severe form the disorder is lethal in infancy We plan to characterize the changes effected by oral bisphosphonate therapy and compare them to a regimen of intravenous bisphosphonate therapy in a group of children with OI

Additionally we have begun to treat patients with OI and other conditions of low bone mineralization for age who are not eligible for the standard protocol too young history of abdominal pain etc with bisphosphonate We also plan to screen the parents and siblings of our patients diagnosed with osteogenesis imperfecta in order to determine if they also have osteoporosis
