Filter by:Despite the strong association of hyperparathyroidism with arachidonic acid related lipid signals, little research has been performed over the years. A better understanding of the link between arachidonic acid remodeling, prostaglandin and endocannabinoid production with primary hyperparathyroidism in primary tissue/cells might open up new avenues for biomarker and thus to a potential therapeutic target. Arachidonic acid remodeling might also have an impact on depression and elevated cytokines in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. The investigators therefore will assess the correlation between postoperative improvement of PHQ-9 and cytokine levels with arachidonic acid remodeling.
The primary objectives were to assess the safety and tolerability of twice daily (BID) doses of 65 mg cinacalcet administered orally to adults with primary HPT.
The primary objective was to assess the safety and tolerability of cinacalcet in adults with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) when administered as a single oral once daily doses for 6 consecutive weeks and twice daily for 15 consecutive days.
The investigators are studying the ability of F18 labeled fluorocholine PET to localize parathyroid adenomas in patients with hyperparathyroidism prior to surgery.
This study will evaluate how Quadriceps Femoris muscle fatigue protocol affect the spatio-temporal gait parameters, gait symmetry and balance in individuals with primary hyperparathyroidism before and after parathyroidectomy. Study group will consist of 20 subjects with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and control group will consist of 20 healthy subjects.
The aim of our study is to evaluate the value of the camera called "Fluobeam" in the localization, visualization of the parathyroid glands for patients with mild primary hyperparathyroidism.
A prospective trial comparing the accuracy of [F-18]-FCH PET/MRI to US and 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT for pre-operative parathyroid localization in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism
To evaluate the efficacy of KHK7580 orally administered up to 24 weeks for hypercalcemia in patient with parathyroid carcinoma or primary hyperparathyroidism who are unable to undergo parathyroidectomy or relapse after parathyroidectomy.
Protocol title: Alterations in functional characteristics of the muscle tissue following surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism. Purpose: To detect any changes in functional characteristics of muscles in patients who undergo surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism compared to patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and conservative treatment, patients undergoing thyroid surgery and healthy subjects. Design: Prospective, multi-center observational study Patient Population: Male or female subjects 18 years of age or older scheduled for parathyroidectomy No. of Subjects: 50 patients undergoing parathyroidectomy, 50 patients undergoing conservative follow up, 50 patients undergoing thyroid surgery due to nontoxic multinodular goiter or solitary nontoxic thyroid adenoma and 50 healthy control subjects, estimated up to 12 months to enroll. Duration of Treatment: During the operation Duration of Follow-up: Follow-up will be performed daily during hospitalization and at 3, 6 and 12 months after the procedure Endpoints: To evaluate the changes in functional characteristics of all the type of muscles which occur after parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism.
The only known cure for primary hyperparathyroidism is surgical removal of one or more parathyroid glands. Some patients however, do not fulfill criteria for surgery or do not want to undergo a procedure due to fear of the associated risks. Therefore a medical alternative is warranted. This study aims to evaluate the effects of Denosumab alone, and in combination with Cinacalcet, as a medical treatment for patients suffering from primary hyperparathyroidism, with mild osteoporosis. To the best of our knowledge no previously reported randomized controlled trial has investigated the use of denosumab in primary hyperparathyroidism. 60 patients will be enrolled in three different treatment-groups: 20 receiving both Denosumab and Cinacalcet, 20 Denosumab and placebo and 20 placebo and placebo. Patients included do not meet the criteria for, or have no wish for a surgical procedure. By combining the two drugs, this study could possibly contribute to the discovery of a realistic medical alternative to surgery. It is expected that the therapy will be able to both control s-calcium and s-intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and simultaneously enhance bone-structure. The therapy thus has the potential of preventing fractures and possibly other long-term effects of primary hyperparathyroidism such as formation of kidney stones, and coronary calcification. Another objective of this project is to investigate whether the combined therapy can facilitate an actual reset of the Calcium-sensing receptor, and thereby de facto cure the disease.
