The purpose of this study is to examine whether alendronate in combination with calcium and vitamin D is safe and effective for treating bone loss in people with HIV.', 'detailedDescription': 'Decreased bone mineral density (BMD) has been identified in up to 50% of HIV infected men, with severe osteoporosis in up to 21% of these men. The mechanisms underlying these bone abnormalities remain unclear. Bisphosphonates are potent bone resorption inhibitors and have been shown to be effective in treating osteoporosis. While several bisphosphonates are approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in women, alendronate is the only bisphosphonate approved for treatment in men. This study hypothesizes that alendronate will be able to reverse decreased BMD secondary to inhibition of bone resorption in HIV infected patients treated with potent antiretroviral therapy, and that these patients will be able to tolerate alendronate without any significant toxicities. The study will also examine the efficacy of once-weekly alendronate with daily calcium and vitamin D in both men and women with HIV.\n\nPatients will participate in this study for 48 weeks. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either alendronate or placebo. All patients will receive calcium and vitamin D. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans will be used to evaluate bone density at each visit. After study entry, patients will have visits at Weeks 2, 12, 24, 36, and 48. During these visits, blood will be drawn and a pregnancy test may be performed. Patients must fast for at least 8 hours prior to the entry visit and for the visits at Weeks 2, 12, 24, and 48.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '25 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria\n\n* HIV-1 infection\n* Lumbar spine DEXA scan confirming decreased BMD within 90 days prior to study entry\n* CD4 cell count 100 cells/mm3 or more within 30 days prior to study entry\n* Stable antiretroviral regimen for at least 12 weeks prior to study entry\n* No plans to alter antiretroviral therapy or to initiate structured/strategic treatment interruptions\n* No plans to significantly alter exercise habits or diet for the duration of the study\n* Documentation of two consecutive measurements of viral load of 5000 copies/ml or less within 90 days prior to study entry, with at least one of the two values obtained within 30 days prior to study entry\n* Willing to use acceptable methods of contraception\n* For women with the absence of menses for at least 6 months, serum prolactin level in the normal range within 60 days prior to study entry\n* For women taking estrogen therapy, stable estrogen regimen for at least 24 weeks prior to study entry, with no plan to change estrogen dose for the duration of the study\n* Serum calcium between 8 mg/dl and 11 mg/dl within 30 days prior to study entry\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\n* Men with untreated low total serum testosterone levels within 60 days prior to study entry, or men with plans to initiate testosterone replacement during the study\n* Cannot receive vitamin D or calcium supplements\n* Daily vitamin or dietary supplements that include 10,000 IU or greater of vitamin A within 90 days prior to study entry\n* Hyperparathyroidism, vitamin D deficiency, or oral thrush within 60 days prior to study entry\n* Any current or past conditions that predispose to disorders involving the esophagus.
