Registered outcomes6

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in C-terminal Telopeptide of Type I Collagen [CTX]Baseline, 20 weeks
Percent change in serum bone turnover markers C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen \[CTX\]. The C-terminal telopeptide (CTX), also known as carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks, is a biomarker used to measure the rate of bone turnover. It provides valuable information for assessing bone health and evaluating treatment responses.
SecondaryChange in Bone Turnover MarkersBaseline, 2 weeks
Percent change in amino-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP). The P1NP assay measures the serum concentration of the amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP). As the concentration of this extension propeptide is directly proportional to the amount of new collagen laid down in bone, it can be used to assess bone formation.
SecondaryChange in Bone Turnover MarkersBaseline, 4 weeks
Percent change in amino-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP). The P1NP assay measures the serum concentration of the amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP). As the concentration of this extension propeptide is directly proportional to the amount of new collagen laid down in bone, it can be used to assess bone formation.
SecondaryChange in Bone Turnover MarkersBaseline, 20 weeks
Percent change in amino-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP). The P1NP assay measures the serum concentration of the amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP). As the concentration of this extension propeptide is directly proportional to the amount of new collagen laid down in bone, it can be used to assess bone formation.
SecondaryChange in Bone Mineral Density (BMD)Baseline, 20 weeksPercent change in BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the lumbar spine, hip ((total and femoral neck (FN), and radius (total and ultra-distal)).
SecondaryChange in Plasma Senescence-associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP)Baseline, 2 weeksPercent change in SASP cells (representing the total senescence cell burden) present. Assessment of senescence markers in bone at baseline and 2 weeks.

Each skeletal site was measured and assessed separately. As such, some sites (which are influenced by osteoarthritis) did not provide interpretable scans. This occurred due to motion artifacts or other issues. Therefore, the number of participants analyzed differ by skeletal site.
