Are there any promising cures for osteoporosis on the horizon?

Frederick Singer (Director of the Endocrine/Bone Disease Program, John Wayne Cancer Institute ) gives expert video advice on: What types of medications are used to treat osteoporosis?; Can osteoporosis be cured by medication?; Are there any treatments for osteoporosis that don't involve medication? and more...

With osteoporosis treatment, I don't believe there are any promising drugs on the near horizon that will cure osteoporosis. I do wonder if stem cell therapy will be an interesting idea for looking for a cure for osteoporosis. The thought would be to put a stem cell that would turn into bone cells that make bone, and if you could target this to the skeleton adequately, conceivably one might have a cure for osteoporosis.
