| NCT01652573 ↗ | Calcitonin for Treating X-linked Hypophosphatemia | Completed | National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) | N/A | 2011-03-01 | X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common form of inherited rickets in the United States. It also causes bone disease in adults. XLH is caused by overproduction of a hormone call FGF23, which makes the body waste phosphate. This study is designed to determine if nasal calcitonin, an already approved drug in the US, can lower blood levels of FGF23 and reduce phosphate wasting in patients with XLH. In this study the investigators will: 1. Determine whether nasal calcitonin significantly lowers integrated 24-hour blood levels of FGF23 in patients with XLH. 2. Evaluate whether nasal calcitonin improves serum phosphate levels in XLH. 3. Assess whether nasal calcitonin improves blood levels of the active form of vitamin D and calcium absorption from the intestine. 4. Make sure that nasal calcitonin is safe and well tolerated. |

| NCT03342001 ↗ | Hypothyroidism Treated With Calcitonin | Completed | University of Maryland | Phase 4 | 2018-06-18 | Some people with hypothyroidism have persistent symptoms despite adequate treatment with thyroid hormones. We are testing whether giving calcitonin to such people will improve their quality of life. |
| NCT03342001 ↗ | Hypothyroidism Treated With Calcitonin | Completed | University of Maryland, Baltimore | Phase 4 | 2018-06-18 | Some people with hypothyroidism have persistent symptoms despite adequate treatment with thyroid hormones. We are testing whether giving calcitonin to such people will improve their quality of life. |
| NCT03812991 ↗ | The Use of Intranasal Calcitonin to Improve Pain and Activity in Elderly Pelvic Ring Injuries | Recruiting | University of Missouri-Columbia | Phase 4 | 2019-07-01 | Pelvic ring fractures in the geriatric population are a rising problem for surgeons in industrialized countries. Many of these low-energy fractures are treated nonoperatively; however, pain is a significant factor in recovery of these patients and often inhibits their ability to mobilize. Most of these fractures are lateral compression type 1 injuries which are defined as an impaction to the sacrum with varying amounts of anterior/pubic root/rami fractures. Many of these patients in the geriatric population suffer from osteoporosis and the injuries are often sustained from a low-energy mechanism like a fall. The tenet of treatment for all osteoporotic fractures is early mobilization. It is well known that extended periods of bed rest will lead to pneumonia, decubitus ulceration, deep venous thrombosis, and, in the case of the pelvis, not prevent subsequent deformity. Calcitonin is a polypeptide containing 32 amino acids, and it plays a role in the regulation of bone metabolism as a hormone that prevents bone resorption. Intranasal salmon calcitonin (ISC) has been demonstrated to decrease pain and improve the level of activity in patients with acute vertebral osteoporotic compression fractures when administered within the first 5 days of onset of pain/injury. It has also demonstrated an immediate post analgesic effect in osteoporotic distal radius fractures treated nonoperatively. The antihyperalgesic action of calcitonin appears to be mediated by serotonin receptors. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of ISC on geriatric patients with pelvic ring injuries who are treated nonoperatively. |
| NCT03935984 ↗ | Calcitonin Pre-treatment to Improve SPECT-CT Sensitivity | Unknown status | University of Toledo Health Science Campus | Phase 4 | 2019-05-29 | Patients with biochemically confirmed primary hyperparathyroidism and non-localizing SPECT-CT exam within the past year will be included. Subjects will be treated with calcitonin to lower calcium levels immediately prior to reimaging. The goal of this study is to determine whether lowering calcium will improve uptake/retention of sestamibi and improve sensitivity of SPECT-CT to localize parathyroid adenoma. |
