Study of AGN1 LOEP to Prevent Secondary Hip Fractures in Osteoporotic Women Aged 65 to 91 Undergoing Hip Fracture Repair Surgery

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating AGN1 LOEP, a local osteo-enhancement procedure, to prevent secondary hip fractures in osteoporotic women who have already had an initial hip fracture and surgery. This randomized controlled trial involves postmenopausal women aged 65 to 91 years who experienced a low-energy fragility hip fracture. The study aims to reduce the chance of a second hip fracture by comparing the new treatment to standard care alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups the treated group receives standard hip fracture repair plus the AGN1 LOEP procedure on the opposite unfractured hip, while the control group receives standard repair without the AGN1 LOEP treatment. The AGN1 LOEP procedure involves injecting implant material into the unfractured hip immediately after surgery. This study is single-blinded, except in Canada where it is not blinded. Participants will attend scheduled follow-up visits at 6 weeks, 6 months, and every 6 months thereafter for at least 5 years. During these visits, researchers will monitor for new hip fractures, adverse events, and measure bone mineral density at 12 and 24 months. The study will assess the cumulative incidence of secondary hip fractures and safety outcomes over time, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years after the initial hip repair surgery.
