Oral Contraceptive for Birth Control

Raleigh, North Carolina
This study will be in two parts, Part A and Part B. The primary objective of Part A is to evaluate the contraceptive efficacy of LPRI-CF113. The secondary objective of Part A is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LPRI-CF113. The primary objective of Part B is to evaluate the impact of LPRI-CF113 on bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (L1-L4) after 12 months (13 medication cycles). The secondary objective of Part B is to evaluate the impact of LPRI-CF113 on BMD and bone turnover after 12 months (13 medication cycles) at the femoral neck, total hip, and total body.

Donepezil for Alzheimer's Effects on Bone Metabolism

Durham, North Carolina
People with Alzheimer's disease are at an increased risk of bone fracture. Some studies have shown that those taking donepezil have a lower rate of bone fractures, but the reasons for this are unknown. The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of donepezil treatment on bone metabolism factors including bone mineral density, bone turnover markers, and bone quality. Participants in this study will have a bone density test and have blood samples collected at the baseline study visit. Participants will then be randomly assigned to donepezil or matching memantine to be taken daily by mouth for 12 months. Blood samples will be collected at 6 and 12 months. A repeat bone density test will be performed at 12 months. Participants will also complete questionnaires at each study visit.

Injury Prevention Care Models for Osteoporosis

Durham, North Carolina
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare three care models for optimizing medications and preventing falls with broken bones in patients receiving rehabilitation after a hospitalization for a broken bone. The primary outcome is injurious falls, with secondary outcomes measuring how the process of care is changed and capturing patient-reported outcomes valued by stakeholders. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Which of the three models is more effective in preventing falls with fractures? * What are the differences in patient-centered outcomes amongst the three models? These include pain, depression, anxiety, sleep, medication side effect burden, and fear of falling. * What are the differences in osteoporosis treatment and medication burden? The three care models are: a Deprescribing Care Model designed to reduce or stop fall-related medications, a Bone Heath Service Model designed to provide osteoporosis evaluation and management, and an Injury Prevention Service Model offering both services. 42 SNFs will participate in this study. The three models will be incorporated into the routine care of patients at these facilities who are receiving rehabilitation after a hospitalization for a fracture. All care models will be delivered remotely to patients in the SNF and after they transition home by a post-fracture nurse consultant supported by an interprofessional team. This study has three aims. See Detailed Description for more details. This ClinicalTrials.gov record represents the Comparative Effectiveness Aim of the protocol.

Risedronate for Bone Loss After Bariatric Surgery

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
The purpose of this research study is to see whether receiving a bisphosphonate medication called risedronate can reduce bone and muscle loss following bariatric surgery. Participation will involve up to 6 study visits and last about 1 year. Risedronate is a medication that prevents bone breakdown and has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in older men and women. However, risedronate has not been approved for the prevention of bone and muscle loss following vertical sleeve gastrectomy. Participation in this study will involve completing two visits before beginning the intervention. Participants who qualify will be scheduled to begin the intervention program which will involve taking 6 monthly doses of a risedronate or placebo pill. Participants will then receive monthly contacts by study staff during this time to remind participants to take the intervention pill and ask about any adverse events. After the completion of intervention period, participants will complete up to 4 follow up study visits at 6 months (2 visits) and at 12 months (2 visits).

Why Other Patients Applied

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."
