Patients will be randomized to receive either Bonviva 150mg po monthly, or placebo monthly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Post-Menopausal Osteopenia
The main purpose of this study is to see what levels of Bone Mineral Density post-menopausal women with breast cancer have, and to see if the level of Bone Mineral Density changes during a women's treatment after her surgery. This trial studies changes in Bone Mineral Density and markers of of bone activity in post-menopausal women receiving treatment for early stage breast cancer.
Postmenopausal Bone Loss, Breast Cancer
The purposes of this study are to determine: * The effects of arzoxifene on bone mineral density (bone mass) at the spine and hip in postmenopausal women. * The effects of arzoxifene on the uterus (womb) in postmenopausal women. * The effects of arzoxifene on blood tests that measure changes in bone rebuilding in postmenopausal women with low bone density. * The effects of arzoxifene on blood lipids (fats) and other blood markers of heart disease risk. * The safety of arzoxifene and any side effects that might be associated with its use.
Postmenopausal Bone Loss
The investigators propose a 24 week clinical research trial (12 week observational period followed by 12 week MedSD intervention) with feasibility of diet adoption and markers of bone turnover as the primary outcomes.
Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal Bone Loss
Women undergoing surgical menopause often experience marked menopausal side effects but are reluctant to use estrogen or other female hormones to ease the transition to menopause because of worries that the hormones may increase breast cancer risks. This study will evaluate tibolone in women experiencing surgical menopause to assess its effects on bone health, menopause symptoms and breast density.
Menopause, Postmenopausal Bone Loss, Breast Cancer
To develop a decision aid to support the decision to use (or not use) bisphosphonates in postmenopausal women at risk for osteoporotic fractures, and to assess the impact of the decision aid on start and six month adherence to bisphosphonates.

Skeletal buffering of chronic acid loads may contribute to a significant amount of bone loss over time. Evidence from a few small short-term studies suggests that basic compounds, namely potassium citrate and potassium bicarbonate may reduce bone loss and improve bone density. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of potassium citrate on bone metabolism. We hypothesize that administration of potassium citrate to postmenopausal women with osteopenia will reduce bone resorption and improve bone mineral density. Postmenopausal women with osteopenia (T score between -1.0 and -2.5) and no history of fracture will be randomized to either daily potassium citrate or placebo for one year. Primary outcomes will be markers of bone turnover, which will be measured over 12 months. Secondary outcomes will be bone mineral density, compliance, and adverse events.

This study will investigate participant satisfaction (including compliance, preference, tolerability) with once-monthly Bonviva in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis or osteopenia transitioned from once-weekly alendronate or risedronate. The anticipated time on study treatment is 6 months, and the target sample size is 1776 individuals.
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
This study is designed to provide information on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and bone biomarker response following multiple BPS804 administration in multiple dosing regimens. This information will permit a comparison of the possible risks and benefits of different dosing regimens of the study drug to enable optimal doses and dose intervals to be tested in subsequent studies.
Osteopenia, Osteoporosis
This study will compare the effects of Zoledronic acid and Raloxifene in reducing bone turnover markers in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density over 6 months.
Osteoporosis
This is a Phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeated-dose study to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary effects of CHI-554 in postmenopausal women ages 50-80 years who have osteopenia.
Osteopenia
Osteoporosis prevention is important in patients with osteopenia (low bone density). This study will test the safety and efficacy of zoledronic acid in patients diagnosed with osteopenia.
Osteopenia
This was an open-label, single-center study to evaluate the usability of abaloparatide-sMTS by participants with low BMD.
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
This study will evaluate the effect of a 1-year administration of the vitamin D analog 2-methylene-19-nor-(20S)-1alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (DP001) on bone mineral density (BMD), safety, and tolerability.
Osteoporosis
The purpose of this trial is to study the clinical safety, tolerability, and efficacy of zoledronic acid compared to an oral bisphosphonate in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis
The purpose of this study is to assess bone mineral density in patients switching from an oral bisphosphonate to zoledronic acid, compared to those staying on the oral bisphosphonate.
Osteoporosis
The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of forearm exercise on forearm bone density in post-menopausal women with or without primary hyperparathyroidism. The investigators hypothesize that forearm exercise will increase forearm bone density in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism more so than in patients without primary hyperparathyroidism.

Estrogen is a hormone that helps prevent calcium loss and bone breakdown. During menopause, estrogen levels decrease. Insufficient amounts of estrogen may lead to bone loss and possibly osteoporosis. Isoflavones are natural compounds found in soy plants that may help provide protection against bone loss. This study will evaluate the effect of soy isoflavones on calcium absorption and bone loss in post menopausal women.

The wearable vibration device aims to consistently deliver vibrations directly to the hip and spine and allowing use during many everyday activities. We propose that demonstrating higher rates of compliance and consistent delivery of optimal force, with accelerometer feedback, will provide a superior alternative to whole body vibration and is plausibly more effective at preventing bone loss in postmenopausal women than vibration platforms in the home setting.
Osteopenia
The purpose of this study is to evaluate treatment adherence to different regimens of ibandronate in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis or osteopenia who are intolerant to daily or weekly alendronate or risedronate therapy due to gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 months, and the target sample size is 517 individuals.
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Osteopenia and osteoporosis cause thinning of bone tissue and loss of bone density over time. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of nitroglycerin ointment for the treatment of osteopenia in postmenopausal women. Study hypothesis: On average, participants in the base therapy cohort who receive placebo ointment control and calcium/vitamin D will lose more bone density than participants in the nitroglycerin cohort over the 36-month period.
Osteoporosis, Osteopenia
The purpose of this study is to examine whether daily supplementation of resveratrol would improve bone health in postmenopausal women.
Low Bone Mass
Elderly, postmenopausal women with breast cancer on aromatase inhibitors are at increased risk of developing bone loss and osteoporosis. We postulate that in elderly, osteopenic postmenopausal women who are on aromatase inhibitor therapy, bisphosphonate therapy will (1) prevent bone loss at clinically relevant sites, such as the spine and hip and (2) decrease bone turnover.
