Effects of PTH Replacement on Bone in Hypoparathyroidism

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare condition associated with a low level of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the blood. Hypoparathyroidism can be genetic and show up in childhood, or it can occur later in life. If it occurs later, it is usually due to damage or removal of the parathyroid glands during neck surgery. PTH helps control the amount of calcium in blood, kidneys, and bones. Low levels of calcium in the blood can cause a person to feel sick. It can cause cramping or tingling in the hands, feet, or other parts of the body. A very low blood calcium can cause fainting or seizures. The standard treatment for hypoparathyroidism is a form of vitamin D (calcitriol) and calcium supplements. Keeping normal blood levels of calcium can be difficult. Sometimes there is too much calcium in the urine even if the calcium levels in the blood are low. High calcium in the kidneys and urine can cause problems such as calcium deposits in the kidney (nephrocalcinosis) or kidney stones. High levels of calcium in the kidney may keep the kidney from functioning normally. Treatment with PTH will replace the hormone you are missing. Your disease may be better controlled on PTH than on calcium and calcitriol. Researchers at the NIH have conducted prior studies to establish synthetic human parathyroid hormone 1-34 (HPTH) as a treatment for hypoparathyroidism. Other studies have shown that PTH may improve calcium levels in blood and urine. The primary purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effects of synthetic human parathyroid hormone 1-34 (HPTH) replacement therapy on bone in adults and teenagers with hypoparathyroidism. The study takes 5 (Omega) years to complete and requires 12 inpatient visits to the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD. The first visit will help the study team decide whether you are eligible. This visit will last 2 to 3 days. After taking calcium and calcitriol for 1 - 7 months you will return to the NIH Clinical Center for the baseline visit. The baseline visit is the visit that you will start your PTH; you will also undergo a bone biopsy during the visit. The baseline visit may last 7 to 10 days. You will then take PTH twice a day for 5 years. You will be asked to return to the NIH clinical center every 6 months for 10 follow-up visits. During one of the follow-up visits, you will have a second bone biopsy taken from the other hip. That second biopsy will be done after 1 year, 2 years, or 4 years of taking PTH; the researchers will assign the timing of the second biopsy randomly. You will be asked to go to your local laboratory for blood and urine tests between each follow up visit. At first the blood tests will occur at least once a week. Later, you will need to go to your local laboratory for blood tests at least once a month and urine tests once every 3 months. The local laboratory visits and follow-up visits at the NIH Clinical Center will help the study team determine whether the HPTH treatment is controlling your hypoparathyroidism.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Objectives The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the skeletal effects of hormone replacement therapy with HPTH in hypoparathyroidism. Study Population This study will enroll up to 69 subjects with physician-diagnosed hypoparathyroidism.<TAB> Design This study will treat hypoparathyroid individuals with synthetic human PTH 1-34 (HPTH) for up to 5 years, periodically assessing skeletal changes through biochemical markers and iliac-crest bone biopsies, which will allow for ultrastructural, cellular, and molecular analyses. With respect to HPTH treatment, this study is a single group, within-subjects, repeated measures treatment trial. With respect to all bone biopsy analyses, the design is a parallel group design with each subject allocated to one of the 3 biopsy follow-up times: 1, 2 or 4 years after initiation of HPTH therapy. Post-baseline biopsy timing will be randomly assigned (1:1.2:1.4, respectively) to each subject, stratified by gender and by menopausal status, when relevant. Changes from baseline (time 0) to 1, 2 and 4-years will be compared. Subjects who were on conventional therapy in the former version of the protocol will also be randomized into the new study design. In contrast to new subjects, whose biopsy is performed at the end of the conventional care run-in period, the pre-conventional care biopsy will be used as the baseline for the those subjects entering the new design after having been on conventional care in the older protocol. Because it is not known with certainty what effects duration of time on conventional therapy will have on biopsy results, randomization will also be stratified on status of prior study participation. The subjects who were on HPTH therapy at the time of the protocol redesign are followed as a separate group under this protocol. Outcome Measures Primary: Changes in static and dynamic bone histomorphometry after 1 year, 2 years, and 4 years of HPTH therapy. Primary outcome measurements include: Mineralized perimeter Bone formation rate Cortical width Cortical area Osteoid width Osteoid perimeter Mineral apposition rate Secondary: Changes in bone mineralization density distribution at 1, 2 and 4 years of HPTH therapy. The specific outcomes that will be measured include: Spectral calcium-mean Calcium-peak Calcium-width Changes from baseline will be assessed in the following outcomes: Biochemical markers of bone metabolism: osteocalcin, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, collagen cross-linked N-telopeptide. Serum and urine calcium; 1,25-OH2-Vitamin D Bone density assessed by DXA and quantitative CT Nephrocalcinosis by ultrasound and CT Fatigue Symptom Inventory 6-Minute Walk Test SF-36 Health Survey Tertiary: Changes in blood chemistries and FGF23, renal mineral handling, and PTH sensitivity with the initiation of HPTH, which include: Serum albumin, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, Total CO2, creatinine, glucose, urea nitrogen, and FGF23 Urine cAMP, creatinine, phosphorus, calcium, and pH

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Change in Bone Biopsy Cancellous Bone Volume (Cn.BV/TV) | Participants (in Cohorts 2 and 3) were randomized to receive their second bone biopsy at year 1, 2, or 4 after the start of HPTH therapy. For Cohort 2, the baseline bone biopsy was completed at the start of CC on the original protocol. For Cohort 3, the baseline biopsy was completed immediately prior to the first HPTH dose. Because the sample sizes for the 1-, 2- and 4-year biopsies are reduced due to the early termination of the study, so the 2-, and 4-year biopsies were collapsed into one biopsy year group. Cn.BV/TV is one of 8 primary endpoints measured from the bone biopsy. The changes in Cn.BV/TV outcome between two time-points are being reported. The unit of measure is a z-score. Z-scores are normed to standard populations to a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1. The normal range for a z-score is from -2 to 2. Values above or below this normal range are considered worse outcomes. | Baseline, 1 year bone biopsy, and combined 2 and 4 year bone biopsies | 
| Change in Total Number of Cortical Pores Per mm^2 (Ct.Po.N) | Participants (in Cohorts 2 and 3) were randomized to receive their second bone biopsy at year 1, 2, or 4 after the start of HPTH therapy. For Cohort 2, the baseline bone biopsy was completed at the start of CC on the original protocol. For Cohort 3, the baseline biopsy was completed immediately prior to the first HPTH dose. Because the sample sizes for the 1-, 2- and 4-year biopsies are reduced due to the early termination of the study, so the 2-, and 4-year biopsies were collapsed into one biopsy year group. Ct.Po.N is a bone biopsy measure that assess the amount of holes in the cortical bone within a predetermined area of cortical bone. The changes in Cn.BV/TV outcome between two time-points are being reported. Cortical bone with a higher number of holes may be at greater risk of fracture.

| Primary Bone Biopsy Measures Adjusted for HPTH Dose | The 8 primary bone biopsy measures were to be adjusted HPTH dose by fitting the primary bone biopsy model with both linear and quadratic dose covariates added to the model. However, the study was terminated early resulting in only 5, 5, and 2 participants having their biopsies at 1, 2, and 4 years respectively. To add additional linear and quadratic dose covariates to the statistical model with an already small sample sizes would highly risk over-parameterizing the model. Thus no new analysis was performed. | Baseline, 1 year bone biopsy, and combined 2 and 4 year bone biopsies | 
| Sensitivity Analyses of Female Menopause Status in the Primary Bone Biopsy Efficacy Models | As a sensitivity analysis, the 8 primary bone biopsy measures were to be adjusted for female menopausal status, by fitting the primary bone biopsy model with a menopausal status covariate added to the model. However, the study was terminated early resulting in only 5, 5, and 2 participants having their biopsies at 1, 2, and 4 years respectively. Furthermore, 3 males would need to be removed from the model leaving 4, 3, 2 participants with bone biopsies with an additional degree of freedom consumed for the menopausal status covariate. Thus, the planned mixed models analysis was not performed since with such small samples sizes random fluctuations in the data could give misleading erroneous results. | Baseline, 1 year bone biopsy, and combined 2 and 4 year bone biopsies |

Values above or below this normal range are considered worse outcomes. | Baseline, 6-months after start of HPTH, last visit on HPTH, and post-HPTH follow-up visits | 
| Z-score of Lateral Spine Bone Mineralization Density (BMD) Assessed by DXA | The DXA BMD were assessed every 6 months over 5 years, and at a follow-up visit post-HPTH therapy. Due to varying lengths of time on each participant was on HPTH, these BMD assessment times were collapsed for purposes of analysis to: baseline, 6-month on HPTH therapy, last visit on HPTH therapy, and the post-HPTH follow-up visit.

| Z-score of Total Hip Bone Mineralization Density (BMD) Assessed by DXA | The DXA BMD measures were assessed every 6 months over 5 years, and at a follow-up visit post-HPTH therapy. Due to varying lengths of time on each participant was on HPTH, these BMD assessment times were collapsed for purposes of analysis to: baseline, 6-month on HPTH therapy, last visit on HPTH therapy, and the post-HPTH follow-up visit. The Total Hip BMD is one of 6 bone regions measurements of bone mineralization density assessed by DXA. The unit of measure is a z-score. Z-scores are normed to standard populations to a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1. The normal range for a z-score is from -2 to 2. Values above or below this normal range are considered worse outcomes. | Baseline, 6-months after start of HPTH, last visit on HPTH, and post-HPTH follow-up visits | 
| Z-score of Whole Body Bone Mineralization Density (BMD) Assessed by DXA | The DXA BMD measures were assessed every 6 months over 5 years, and at a follow-up visit post-HPTH therapy. Due to varying lengths of time on each participant was on HPTH, these BMD assessment times were collapsed for purposes of analysis to: baseline, 6-month on HPTH therapy, last visit on HPTH therapy, and the post-HPTH follow-up visit. The Whole Body BMD is one of 6 bone regions measurements of bone mineralization density assessed by DXA. The unit of measure is a z-score. Z-scores are normed to standard populations to a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1. The normal range for a z-score is from -2 to 2. Values above or below this normal range are considered worse outcomes. | Baseline, 6-months after start of HPTH, last visit on HPTH, and post-HPTH follow-up visits |
