Osteoporosis clinical trials at University of California Health
3 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
U.S. Prospective Evaluation of EPIONE Device for Percutaneous MSK Procedures
open to eligible people ages 22 years and up
The goal of this investigational device exemption is to evaluate the Epione assistance for introducer placement during percutaneous procedures in musculo-skeletic (MSK) structures of the pelvis and the spine in adults. The main question is the determination of the rate of feasible procedures assisted by the Epione device Participants will undergo their procedure(s) as planned by their physician. If they accept to participate to the study, the differences with standard of care will be: - The use of the Epione device to place the introducer(s), instead of freehand placement if they do not participate - Additional CT or CBCT scans during the procedure.

Osteoporotic Fracture Classification-based Scoring System for Treatment Decision in Thoracolumbar Osteoporotic Fractures
Sorry, not currently recruiting here
This is an international multicenter prospective observational study. Patients with radiologically confirmed, symptomatic, single- or multilevel contiguous TL (from T1 to L5) fractures as a result of primary osteoporosis will be recruited from participating clinics/hospitals (ie, study sites). Fractures included are insufficiency fractures (confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) and traumatic fractures (low-energy trauma, confirmed by computed tomography [CT] or MRI).
