COMPLETED Phase 3

Investigating the Use of Prolia (Denosumab) in the Treatment of Acute Charcot Neuroarthropathy

NCT03174366 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) is a debilitating disease primarily affecting poorly controlled diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy. The consequences of CN include ulcerations of the foot and ankle, osteomyelitis, and severe musculoskeletal deformity. These consequences frequently lead to below-knee amputation of the affected limb. Currently treatment options are limited, and no pharmaceutical treatment has been efficacious in the medical literature. The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the potential of the medication denosumab for acute stage Charcot neuroarthropathy.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT03174366

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT03174366 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as Phase 3, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 7 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Western University of Health Sciences, which has 7 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Charcot Joint of Foot appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Denosumab is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT03174366 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include California. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
