Trial summary

Emphasis in treating osteoporosis has been on T-scores rather than overall fracture risk. Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) supports a risk sensitive approach to osteoporosis treatment by providing an absolute fracture risk. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Wiser Choices In Osteoporosis Choice II

Emphasis in treating osteoporosis has been on T-scores rather than overall fracture risk. Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) supports a risk sensitive approach to osteoporosis treatment by providing an absolute fracture risk. FRAX combined with a decision aid may promote a shared decision making approach with patients, allowing the clinician and patient to weigh potential fracture risk (without treatment), versus risk reduction with medication (including side effects and costs). OSTEOPOROSIS CHOICE II will test the effectiveness of:

  • FRAX
  • FRAX + decision aid
  • Usual care (no decision aid and no FRAX given to clinician)
Being tested
FRAX + Decision Aid, FRAX estimated fracture risk
Keywords
Decision Aid, Shared Decision Making, Shared Medical Decision Making
Medical subject headings
Osteoporosis, Bone Diseases, Metabolic

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • FRAX + Decision AidBehavioural

    Also called Decision Support

    Clinicians will present patient's with their individualized risk of osteoporotic fracture in 10 years, based on the FRAX risk calculator, as well as sharing a decision aid with them, which shows their risk of fracture, risk reduction on medications, as well as the downsides of the medications.

  • FRAX estimated fracture riskBehavioural

    Also called Risk estimate

    The clinician is provided with the patient's estimated risk of fracture as computed by the FRAX

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FRAX + Decision Aid and FRAX estimated fracture risk in people with Osteoporosis and Osteopenia, run by Mayo Clinic at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Medication start/stop, knowledge, and patient involvement. (time frame: Baseline and at 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00949611, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Feb 2016.
