• Trial end date: 2020-02-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Male

Summary

Clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of the supplement Colaren® associated with zoledronic acid 4mg/annually in the treatment of osteoporosis secondary, compared to standard treatment plus zoledronic acid 4mg/annually. The standard treatment will include 1gr of calcium/day and vitamin D supplement. In both cases, vitamin D levels will be determinated, which should remain at more than 30 ng/mL.

Including men with osteoporosis secondary to HIV and men with osteoporosis secondary to any other cause (HIV negative). Vitamin D levels, bone densitometry and markers of metabolism, bone formation and bone resorption will be assessment. The all parameters above will be assessed basally (before the start of treatment), after starting the treatment, an assessment will be made at 12 weeks where vitamin D levels and bone markers will be measured. Meanwhile, at week 24 assess only vitamin D levels; and finally, at week 52 all parameters mentioned above will be measured.
