| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary end point(s): Evaluation of callus formation (callus area) of the fractured bone assessed by x-ray, during and after PTH(1-34)-treatment.;Main Objective: Primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the stimulatory effect of PTH(1-34) on bone healing measured by callus formation (callus area) as determined by x-ray analysis . ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to determine the effect of PTH(1-34), during fracture healing, on biochemical markers of bone formation (Alkaline phosphatase, s-osteocalcin, s-P1CP) and resorption (s-NTX), bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC). Furthermore life quality of the patients will be evaluated using SF-36 questionnaire. | — |
