These procedures will allow us to evaluate brain metabolism and cognitive performance at baseline and two years following continuation or discontinuation of estrogen therapy.\n\nWe hypothesize that women who discontinue estrogen will show more evidence of decline than those who continue estrogen. This project will expand current knowledge of effects of estrogen by 1) determining whether estrogen use among postmenopausal women at risk for cognitive decline is protective of brain metabolism, 2) identifying early predictors for cognitive decline, and 3) developing guidelines for estrogen use in postmenopausal women.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '45 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Women between the ages of 45 and 65 years of age, currently on estrogen therapy for 1 year prior to enrollment in study, and at risk for cognitive decline.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Women between the ages of 45 and 65\n* Currently on hormone replacement\n* One year or more post complete cessation of menses\n* Willing to sign the Human Subject Protection Consent form prior to enrollment in the study\n* Willing to be randomized to continue or discontinue estrogen therapy\n* Adequately visually and auditorially acute to allow neuropsychological testing\n* Beyond 8 years of educational achievement to allow adequate neuropsychological testing\n* Willing to undergo brain imaging\n* At risk for cognitive decline, as defined by one or more of the following: Personal or family history of mood disorder, Hypothyroidism, Diabetes, Family history of Alzheimer's, APOE-4 allele\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosis of possible or probable Alzheimer's disease or dementia\n* Cerebrovascular disease or uncontrolled hypertension (systolic BP \\>170 or diastolic BP \\>100)\n* History of myocardial infarction within previous year or unstable heart disease\n* History of significant liver disease, pulmonary disease, or current cancer\n* Contraindication for MRI (metal in body, claustrophobia, etc.)"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00097058', 'briefTitle': 'Estrogen Use in Protection From Cognitive Decline', 'nctIdAliases': ['NCT00238589'], 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Stanford University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Estrogen Use in Protection From Cognitive Decline', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'IA0063'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'R01AG022008', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/R01AG022008', 'type': 'NIH'}, {'id': 'SPO #29004'}, {'id': 'Grant #R01 AG022008'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': '1', 'description': 'Continue current hormone therapy'}, {'label': '2', 'description': 'Taper off hormone therapy'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '94070-5723', 'city': 'Stanford', 'state': 'California', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Stanford University School of Medicine, Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.42411, 'lon': -122.16608}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Natalie Rasgon, MD, PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Stanford University School of Medicine, Dept of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences'}, {'name': 'Terence Ketter, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Stanford University'}, {'name': 'Jerome Yesavage, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Stanford University'}, {'name': 'Jennifer Hoblyn, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'VA Palo Alto Health Care System'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Stanford University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'National Institute on Aging (NIA)', 'class': 'NIH'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Principal Investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Natalie Rasgon', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Stanford University'}}}}
