Trial overview

Official title: Investigation of the side effects of orally administered glucocorticoids. An open label study to investigate the effects of orally administered prednisolone on bone metabolism in patients with COPD.
Trial description: The aim of this study is to establish associations between blood and urine markers of bone metabolism with histomorphometric changes (changes in the actual bone structure) resulting from short term oral prednisolone treatment in patients with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
Primary purpose:
Treatment
Trial design:
Crossover Assignment
Masking:
None (Open Label)
Allocation:
Non-randomized
Primary outcomes:

Mineral apposition rate Mineralising surface Eroded surface Bone formation rate Osteocalcin levels Serum and urinary deoxypyridinoline

Timeframe: All measured with and without 3 weeks dosing with oral prednisolone

Secondary outcomes:

Pharmacokinetic measurements Bone structure and micro computer tomography of bone biopsies Biochemical markers of bone formation, bone break down and hormones

Timeframe: All measured with and without 3 weeks dosing with oral prednisolone
