Official Title: Evaluation of the Ability of CT-based Finite Element Analysis (CTFEA) to Predict Fractures in Patients With Metastases: a Randomized Controlled Study.
Study ID: NCT03453905
Study Description
Brief Summary: Patients with metastases to proximal femur, who are evaluated fr the risk of pathologic fracture in order to decide on preventive fixation vs follow-up constitute the study population. The patients will be randomized in two arms. First arm - the decision of treatment will rely on conventional decision algorithm including specialist judgement and Mirels' score. Second arm- the decision on treatment will be supported by CTFEA analysis of bone structure and quantitative simulation-based estimate of fracture risk, in addition to the conventional decision algorithm. Operation rates, pathologic fracture rates and additional secondary outcomes will be compared between the two study arms.
