However studies show that many patients treated with glucocorticoids do not receive treatment to prevent bone loss. There exist 5 large randomized controlled clinical trials providing evidence that the bisphosphonates etidronate, alendronate, and risedronate are effective in both the prevention and the treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. Significant increases in BMD with bisphosphonate treatment, most consistently observed in lumbar spine, were seen in patients with many different glucocorticoid-treated disorders; most often RA and polymyalgia rheumatica, and occurred generally irrespective of patient age, sex and menopausal status in women. In addition, statically significant reductions in the absolute risk and relative risk of incident radiographic vertebral fractures were demonstrated after 1 year of treatment with risedronate. A similar significant reduction in the risk of incident radiographic vertebral fractures was seen in alendronate treated patients who completed 2 years of a study of alendronate in the prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. There exists a data about Ibandronate which reported that intermittent intravenous ibandronate reduced vertebral fracture risk in corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis. However, there is no report about oral monthly ibandronate. Current oral bisphosphonates, which are given either daily or weekly, are associated with stringent, inconvenient dosing schedules. Less frequent dosing may provide great acceptability. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of oral monthly ibandronate in women receiving long-term glucocorticoids.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Rheumatoid arthritis fulfilling the 1987 ACR criteria\n* Women equal and above 18 years, less than 75 years old\n* L1-4 T score less than -1.0 and equal or above -3.0 SD measured by DXA (Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry)\n* Patient must have taken prednisolone 5mg or its equivalent for more than 3 consecutive months within 1 year\n* Patient who would be taking glucocorticoids for more than 3 months after enrollment\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient with vertebral fractures or nonvertebral fractures associated with osteoporosis\n* Patient diagnosed with malignancy within 5 years\n* Patient with endocrine dysfunction\n* RA functional class 4\n* Patient who took bisphosphonates within 6 months\n* Patient on medication affecting bone mineral metabolism'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01287533', 'briefTitle': 'Efficacy of Monthly Ibandronate in Women With RA and Reduced Bone Mineral Density Receiving Long-term Steroids', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Seoul National University Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Efficacy of Monthly Ibandronate in Women With Rheumatoid Arthritis and Reduced Bone Mineral Density Receiving Long-term Glucocorticoids', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '112942'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Ibandronate treatment', 'description': 'Ibandronate 150mg PO once every 4 weeks', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Ibandronate']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Placebo arm', 'description': 'Placebo PO once every 4 weeks', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Placebo']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Ibandronate', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'monthly dosage of ibandronate 150mg', 'armGroupLabels': ['Ibandronate treatment']}, {'name': 'Placebo', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'monthly dosage of placebo', 'armGroupLabels': ['Placebo arm']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '110-744', 'city': 'Seoul', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Seoul National University Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.566, 'lon': 126.9784}}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Yeong-Wook Song', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Yeong-Wook Song', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Seoul National University Hospital'}}}}
