Femoral Neck Fractures clinical trials at UC Irvine
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
MAPT Protocol: Fixation Versus Arthroplasty Surgical Treatments for Early Recovery After HIP Fracture (FASTER-HIP)
open to eligible people ages 60 years and up
This study is an intervention domain of the Musculoskeletal Adaptive Platform Trial. The primary goal of this pragmatic, randomized, open-label, comparative effectiveness trial is to evaluate if arthroplasty is superior to internal fixation when used to treat minimally displaced femoral neck fractures in older adults ≥60 years old. We hypothesize that arthroplasty will reduce death, preserve ambulation, increase days alive and out of hospital, and improve health status compared to internal fixation within 4 months and 12 months from randomization.

Minimally Displaced Femoral Neck Fracture Pilot Study
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The goal of this randomized pilot study is to assess feasibility of the trial and to collect information to inform the design of a definitive trial. Adult patients ages 60 years or older with a low-energy minimally displaced femoral neck fracture (FNF) treated with surgery will be eligible to participate in the study. Patients will be randomized to one of two treatment groups, hip arthroplasty or internal fixation. Participants will be followed for 1 year.
