Effect of Teriparatide on Hip Fracture Healing

April 10, 2015 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

Effect of Teriparatide on Femoral Neck Fracture Healing

The purpose of this study is to see whether teriparatide, given for 6 months versus placebo, will improve the healing of hip (femoral neck) fractures that are repaired during surgery using certain types of orthopedic screws. The study will enroll men and postmenopausal women at least 50 years of age with a recent hip (femoral neck) fracture caused by low-trauma (for example, fall from standing height or less).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a 12-month, Phase 3, prospective, randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational study to evaluate the effect of 6 months of treatment with teriparatide on fracture healing in participants who have sustained a recent low-trauma, unilateral, femoral neck fracture stabilized by internal fixation. The study has 3 periods:

  1. A screening period that must be completed in ≤ 14 days after operative treatment of the femoral neck fracture
  2. A 6-month double-blind treatment period [teriparatide 20 µg or placebo given once daily by SC injection]
  3. A 6-month observation period.

The primary objective is to assess the effect of 6 months of treatment with teriparatide 20 µg/day versus placebo on the proportion of men and postmenopausal women of at least 50 years of age with no revision surgery 12 months after internal fixation of a low-trauma femoral neck fracture.

All participants will receive supplements of calcium and vitamin D beginning at screening and continuing for 12 months.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With No Revision Surgery at 12 Months After Internal Fixation of a Low-Trauma Femoral Neck Fracture
Time Frame: 12 months
Revision surgery (re-operation) was defined as any additional surgical intervention performed or recommended at the site of the index procedure, except those that were planned at the time of the index procedure.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Radiographic Evidence of Healing
Time Frame: Randomization up to 12 months

The signs of femoral neck fracture healing included disappearance of the fracture line on radiographs. If a participant had radiographic evidence of healing at the 12-month visit, that participant was considered to have radiographic evidence of healing.

Percentage was calculated as: (number of participants with radiographic evidence of healing / total number of participants analyzed) * 100.

Randomization up to 12 months
Percentage of Participants With Pain Control During Ambulation
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
The worst pain numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to assess the impact of pain on a participant's life. NRS Item 3 assessed the worst musculoskeletal pain severity during the walking test. Pain was measured by an 11-point Likert scale. The following cut-points were used to categorize the NRS responses: 0 = no pain, 1 to 4 = mild pain, 5 to 6 = moderate pain, and 7 to 10 = severe pain. Participants with an NRS score of <7 were categorized as having no severe fracture-site pain with ambulation and no worsening of NRS scores >2 from baseline. Percentage was calculated as: (Number of participants with pain control during ambulation / total number of participants) * 100.
Up to 12 months
Percentage of Participants Without Severe Fracture-Site Pain During 24 Hours Prior to Visit
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
The worst pain NRS was used to assess the impact of pain on a participant's life. Fracture-site pain severity was assessed for pain in the 24 hours preceding a visit. Pain was measured by an 11-point Likert scale. Participants with an NRS score of <7 in the 24 hours preceding a visit and no worsening of NRS >2 from baseline were categorized as having no severe fracture-site pain. Percentage was calculated as: (number of participants with pain control during 24 hours preceding a visit / total number of participants) * 100.
Up to 12 months
Percentage of Participants Without Severe Fracture-Site Pain During Weight Bearing
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
The worst pain NRS was used to assess the impact of pain on a participant's life. Fracture-site pain severity was assessed for pain on weight bearing. Pain was measured by an 11-point Likert scale. Participants with an NRS score of <7 during weight bearing and no worsening of NRS >2 from baseline were categorized as having no severe fracture-site pain. Percentage was calculated as: (number of participants with pain control during weight bearing / total number of participants) * 100.
Up to 12 months
Percentage of Participants With Functional Evidence of Healing
Time Frame: 12 Months

Functional healing was defined as ability to walk with a gait speed ≥ 0.05 meters/second (m/s) with a change from baseline ≥ -0.1 m/s. The walking test involved having the participant walk a distance of 7 meters (m) at a self-selected, comfortable pace. A 4-m portion of the test was timed to determine the participant's gait speed in m/s.

Percentage was calculated as: (number of participants with functional evidence of healing / total number of participants analyzed) * 100.

12 Months
Percentage of Participants Able to Ambulate
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
Ability to ambulate was defined as ambulatory with convalescent aid or without convalescent aid. Percentage was calculated as: (number of participants able to ambulate / number of total participants analyzed) * 100.
Up to 12 months
Percentage of Participants Who Regain Their Prefracture Ambulatory Status
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
Prefracture ambulatory status was defined as either ambulatory with or without a walking aid. A participant was considered to have regained their prefracture ambulatory status if the participant's postsurgery ambulatory status was returned to or was improved from their pre-surgery ambulatory status. Percentage was calculated as = (number of participants who regained their ambulatory status / total number analyzed) * 100.
Up to 12 months
Mean Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Worst Fracture-Site Pain
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 Months
The worst pain NRS was used to assess the impact of pain on a participant's life. Participants with an NRS score of <7 were categorized as having no severe fracture-site pain. Least Squares (LS) means was calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and adjusted for baseline, treatment group, region, fracture type, and fixation type.
Baseline, 6 Months
Mean Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Gait Speed
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 6 Months
The walking test involved having the participant walk a distance of 7 m at a self-selected, comfortable pace. A 4-m portion of the test was timed to determine the participant's gait speed in m/s. LS means was calculated using ANCOVA and adjusted for baseline, treatment group, region, fracture type, and fixation type.
Baseline, up to 6 Months
Time to Revision Surgery
Time Frame: Baseline to revision surgery (up to 14.14 Months)
Time to revision surgery was defined as the time from initial hip fracture surgery to revision surgery, or recommendation for revision surgery if recommended but not performed. Time to revision surgery was censored at the date of the last contact.
Baseline to revision surgery (up to 14.14 Months)
Mean Change From Baseline to 6 Months on Short Form-12 (SF-12) Physical (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) Scores
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 6 Months
SF-12 is a self-reported questionnaire covering a mental component score (MCS) and a physical component score (PCS), each scoring from a 0 to 100 (worst to best) scale. LS mean was calculated using ANCOVA and adjusted for baseline, treatment group, region, fracture type, fixation type, visit, and visit-by-treatment interaction.
Baseline, up to 6 Months
Mean Change From Baseline to 6 Months on Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 6 Months
WOMAC is: a self-reported questionnaire that consisted of 24 questions covering 3 health domains: Pain (5 items: during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing), Stiffness (2 items: after first waking and later in the day), and Physical Function. Each domain was scored by summing the individual items and transforming the scores into a 0 to 100 (best to worst) scale. LS mean was calculated using ANCOVA and adjusted for baseline, treatment group, region, fracture type, fixation type, visit, and visit-by-treatment interaction.
Baseline, up to 6 Months
Mean Change From Baseline to 6 Months on European Quality of Life Questionnaire (EQ-5D) Health State Score
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 6 Months
The EQ-5D is a 5-item, self-reported, generic, multidimensional, health-related, quality-of-life instrument with 5 items. Overall health state score was also self-reported using a visual analogue scale (VAS) marked on a scale scored from 0 (worse imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state). LS mean was calculated using ANCOVA and adjusted for baseline, treatment group, and region.
Baseline, up to 6 Months
