Adrenal Insufficiency Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Double Blind Cross-over Study of the Effects of Low Dose and High Dose Hydrocortisone Replacement Therapy on Cognition, Quality of Life, Metabolic Profile and Somatosensation in Patients With Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency
The aim of this study is to investigate whether a physiologically low hydrocortisone (HC) dose is better for cognition as compared to a physiologically high HC dose. In addition, quality of life, metabolic profile and somatosensation will be described in relation to HC dose.
- Rationale: A wide variety in hydrocortisone (HC) substitution dose-regimens are
considered physiological for patients with adrenal insufficiency. However, it is likely
that cognition is negatively influenced by higher cortisol exposure to the brain. No
studies have been performed to assess the effects of treatment regimens with a low
physiological HC substitution dose on cognition in comparison to a high physiological
HC substitution dose. These treatment regimens should take body weight and multiple
dosing into account. In addition, substitution doses should be monitored by clinical
evaluation and biochemical analysis for adverse effects associated with over- or
under-replacement.
- Intervention: Patients with secondary adrenal insufficiency will be randomized in two
groups to receive either a low dose HC (0.2-0.3 mg/kg body weight) for 10 weeks
followed by 10 weeks of high dose HC (0.4-0.6 mg/kg body weight) or vice versa. At
baseline and after both treatment periods, patients will be tested.
