A Multicenter,Open Label, Randomized Trial Evaluating the Duration of Infusion of Zoledronic Acid 4 mg IV in Multiple Myeloma Patients With Bone Metastases

The purpose of this trial is to study the safety of treating patients with multiple myeloma and at least one bone lesion with zoledronic acid 4mg intravenously (IV) every 3 - 4 weeks for 2 years. Patients will receive a zoledronic acid infusion for 15 minutes or 30 minutes.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: 15 Minute Infusion
Participants received 4 mg zoledronic acid intravenously, in 250 mL of fluid, every 3-4 weeks for up to 24 months, over a 15-minute infusion time, but increasing to a 30-minute infusion time if they experienced a clinically relevant rise in serum creatinine that resolved in less than 12 weeks
4 mg zoledronic acid in 250 mL of calcium-free solution (i.e., 0.9% sodium chloride or 5% glucose) administered intravenously.
Other Names:
  • ZOMETA®
Experimental: 30 Minute Infusion
Participants received 4 mg zoledronic acid intravenously, in 250 mL of fluid, every 3-4 weeks for up to 24 months, over a 30-minute infusion time, but increasing to a 45-minute infusion time if they experienced a clinically relevant rise in serum creatinine that resolved in less than 12-weeks.
4 mg zoledronic acid in 250 mL of calcium-free solution (i.e., 0.9% sodium chloride or 5% glucose) administered intravenously.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Number of Participants With a Significant Increase in Serum Creatinine at 12 Months
Time Frame: Baseline and 12 Months
The primary renal safety endpoint was the number of participants with a clinically relevant increase in serum creatinine at 12 months. Serum creatinine was determined prior to each zoledronic acid infusion for all Participants and was considered to be significantly increased if there was an increase of 0.5 mg/dL or more or a doubling of the baseline serum creatinine value.
Baseline and 12 Months
The Number of Participants With Disease Progression
Time Frame: 24 Months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Number of Participants With a Significant Increase in Serum Creatinine at 24 Months
Time Frame: Baseline and 24 Months
Serum Creatinine was considered to be significantly increased if there was an increase of 0.5 mg/dL or more or a doubling of the baseline serum creatinine value.
Baseline and 24 Months
Time to First Significant Increase in Serum Creatinine
Time Frame: Up to 24 months
Median time to event in participants who had a clinically relevant increase in serum creatinine.
Up to 24 months
Zoledronic Acid Concentrations
Time Frame: 24 months
Samples for drug concentration analysis were drawn at 10 and 15 minutes into the infusion for participants in the 15-minute infusion group and at 25 and 30 minutes into the infusion for patients in the 30-minute infusion group. The mean and median zoledronic acid concentrations were greater in the 15-minute group than in the 30-minute group at both sampling timepoints.
