A Study of Adherence to Once Monthly Bonviva (Ibandronate) in Women With Post-Menopausal Osteoporosis, Supported by a Patient Relationship Program (PRP). - Full Text View

Sponsor:	Hoffmann-La Roche
Information provided by:	Hoffmann-La Roche
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00545363

Purpose

This 2 arm study will assess the impact of Bone Marker Feedback (BMF), using serum CTX and communication of results at 3 months, on adherence to once monthly Bonviva (150mg po) in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis supported by PRP. Patients will be randomized either to receive BMF or no BMF; both groups will be supported by PRP. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
