Osteoporosis Clinical Trial
— RUBIOfficial title:
Innovative Approach to Geriatric Osteoporosis
The purpose of this study is to find out if one year of romosozumab (Evenity®), a monthly injection given in the arm under the skin, prior to an infusion of zoledronic acid Reclast®, works to treat bone loss and prevent it from worsening in older women (ages 65 and older) who have osteoporosis and reside in long-term care (LTC) facilities.

Age group | 65 Years and older |
Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: Elderly women 65 years and older will be considered if: - They reside in an institution (nursing home or assisted living facility or senior care community); - They have a) osteoporosis by axial bone density (spine, hip or forearm BMD T-score= -2.5 SD), b) a previous adult fragility fracture of the spine or hip or c) would be treated based on FRAX and the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) treatment thresholds of a 10 year risk of 10% for a major osteoporotic fracture or = 3% for hip fracture using femoral neck BMD. - Willing and able to complete the informed consent process or provide consent by proxy. Exclusion Criteria: - Those with subacute illnesses who are not expected to survive or who will be discharged in less than 2 years. - Those who have previously had an acute cardiovascular or cerebrovascular event within the preceding year. specifically, no recent history of coronary heart disease, heart failure, significant arrhythmia, stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA). - Recent cardiovascular disease (CVD) symptoms (significant chest pain, congestive heart failure, shortness of breath, or palpitations or cerebrovascular symptoms such as numbness or weakness in the face, arm, legs, difficulty talking, changes in vision, loss of balance, headache, feeling light-headed or dizzy). - Unstable angina. - Those who are currently on therapy (including a bisphosphonate, denosumab, teriparatide, abaloparatide or romosozumab) or have been on a bisphosphonate for greater than 1 year during the previous 2 years. - Those who are unable to take an intravenous bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) due to renal insufficiency with eGFR < 35 ml/min. - Vitamin D levels <25 ng/mL. - Participants will be allowed to continue on medications known to affect bone and mineral metabolism (e.g., glucocorticoids, anticonvulsants) because their use is common in this population. - Those who have been treated in the past or present with osteoporosis agents, such as estrogen/progesterone or raloxifene will be allowed to participate and continue on these therapies if prescribed by their physician. - Patients will be allowed to wear hip pads if prescribed by their physician. - Non-ambulatory residents (those who cannot stand and pivot with assistance in order to transfer to the DXA table) will be excluded. |
