efficacy and safety of jmt103 in the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis

Conditions: Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Summary: this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of jmt103 in the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

this study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo/positive-controlled phase ii clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, immunogenicity and pharmacokinetic characteristics of jmt103 in the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. subjects will be screened within -28 days before treatment, and subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be included in the study. the enrolled postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who meet the diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio into test group a (jmt103 45 mg group), test group b (jmt103 60 mg group), test group c (jmt103 90 mg group), control group d (denosumab 60 mg group) and control group e (placebo group). jmt103,denosumab and placebo will be administered as a single subcutaneous (sc) injection at the beginning of the treatment phase and at 6 months following the initial dose. each subject will be followed up for 12 months after the first administration. throughout the research process, subjects will be required to supplement ≥1000 mg of calcium and ≥800 iu of vitamin d every day.
