Researchers are evaluating changes in bone mineral density in premenopausal women with heavy menstrual bleeding caused by uterine fibroids or moderate-to-severe pain from endometriosis. This Phase 3B, open-label study looks at the effects of continuous treatment with a relugolix combination tablet for up to 48 months 4 years, followed by a 1-year period to monitor bone health after stopping treatment. Participants will take a daily oral relugolix combination tablet containing relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1 mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg for 4 years. Bone mineral density will be measured every 6 months using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry DXA. Some women who have completed a previous related study may join to complete 3 years of treatment. After treatment ends, bone density will be checked again at 6 months and 12 months during the follow-up year. Women in the study will have regular visits for bone density scans and health assessments, including physical and gynecological exams, lab tests, and vital signs. Researchers will track changes in bone density at the spine, hip, and femoral neck throughout treatment and follow-up. They will also monitor for any fractures or adverse events during the 4 years of treatment and the 1-year post-treatment period. Total participation can last up to 5 years including the follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating a new care strategy for people at increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease ASCVD but without symptoms. The study compares a Cleerly Coronary Artery Disease CAD Staging System-based care approach against the usual risk factor-based care to see if it better reduces cardiovascular events. This pragmatic, randomized trial addresses the need for improved methods to identify and personalize treatment for asymptomatic individuals at risk due to age, diabetes, prediabetes, or metabolic syndrome. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. The risk factor-based care group receives usual care managed by their providers, while a cardiology team monitors and supports guideline-based treatment without revealing certain imaging results during the study. The Cleerly stage-based care group gets personalized management from a remote cardiologist-led team using the Cleerly CAD Staging System, which includes imaging to assess coronary atherosclerosis and guides pharmacotherapy and education. Treatment intensity may increase if plaque worsens after 24 months. During the study, participants will have assessments to monitor heart health and treatment adherence over an average of 3.5 years. Researchers will measure cardiovascular events and other related health outcomes to compare the two care strategies. The study involves ongoing medication monitoring, lab tests, and feedback to optimize prevention, with the goal of improving personalized care for cardiovascular risk management.
