Filter by:This is a Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of TE-8214 in healthy volunteers. The study will assess single ascending doses (SAD) of TE-8214.
Prospective observational clinical, molecular, translational and basic study aimed at identifying the main determinants and predictive factors of risk of bone damage in acromegaly patients
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate, retrospectively and prospectively, the effect of different hormonal and neuropeptide dysfunctions on the body composition of patients suffering from hypothalamic-pituitary pathologies, and to evaluate the potential beneficial effect of surgical and medical treatments with agonists and antagonists of hypothalamic neuropeptides, currently available, on the development and treatment of adiposity and negative cross-talk between adiposity and muscle/bone tissue
Participants of this study are adults with GEP-NETs and/or acromegaly who were using the Ipsen lanreotide syringe and have transitioned in the last 6 months to the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe, having received at least two injections using the Pharmathen syringe. GEP-NETs are abnormal growths that develop in the digestive system, including the stomach, intestines, and pancreas. These tumors arise from special cells called neuroendocrine cells, which are found in these organs and release hormones to regulate various bodily functions. GEP-NETs can be slow-growing, and symptoms may vary depending on their location and size. Acromegaly is a condition where a person's body produces too much growth hormone. This excess hormone can cause certain body parts, like the hands, feet, and face, to enlarge over time. It typically occurs because of a tumor on the pituitary gland in the brain, which is responsible for regulating hormones. Acromegaly can lead to various health issues if not treated, but medications or surgery can often help manage the condition. Long-acting somatostatin analogs (LA-SSAs) are indicated for patients with Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) and acromegaly who are not eligible for surgery or when surgery fails to achieve remission. Data for this study will be collected after the treatment switch from the Ipsen lanreotide syringe to the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe has occurred, using one round of one-to-one qualitative telephone and/or videoconference interviews with patients. Interviews will last 45 minutes and be carried out in the local language of the participant's country. The main aim of this study is to capture the patient experience of the Ipsen lanreotide syringe and their experience with the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe.
Acromegaly is a rare chronic disease due to excessive secretion of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), caused in over 98% of cases by GH-secreting pituitary adenoma. Prolonged exposure to GH/IGF-I excess is the cause of increased mortality and morbidity in these patients. Arthropathy occurs in about 75% of acromegalic patients. Any joint may be affected, with the development of osteoarthritis, arthralgia, and an increase in fracture risk. The aims of the present project are to evaluate the dimensions of hands and feet with the 3D scanner method and to perform a quantitative analysis of movement through Gait Analysis technique in de novo patients with acromegaly (group # 1) and in patients with different disease status (group #2).
This is a single-centre, single-dose, dose-escalation, placebo and positive drug-controlled Phase I clinical study in healthy Chinese subjects to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of octreotide injection in healthy Chinese subjects.
The goal of this observational, cross-sectional study is to study bone quality, joint quality and fall risk in acromegalic patients, compared with healthy controls. The main questions it aims to answer are: - what is the optimal method for evaluating bone quality and fracture risk in acromegalic patients? - are acromegalic patients at increased risk of falling? - is HR-pQCT a feasible method for evaluating acromegalic joint disease? Participants will undergo HR-pQCT scans, DXA scans, OsteoProbe examination and fall risk assessments. Results will be compared to matched healthy controls.
This study aims to assess the one-year effectiveness and safety of LAN among patients with acromegaly in China in routine clinical practice. In addition, the study is designed to understand the real-world treatment patterns and outcomes of LAN among Chinese patients with acromegaly.
Impact of low carbohydrate and low gluten diet on acromegaly progression, symptoms, complications, and treatment outcomes.
This is an open-label, single treatment arm, multicenter study to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and tolerability of Debio 4126 in the treatment of participants with Acromegaly or Functioning Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs).
