View clinical trials related to Adrenal Hyperplasia, Congenital.
Filter by:Congenital Adrenal Hyperplesia (CAH) is a group of automosal recessive disorders that develop due to a deficiency of one of the five enyzmes necessary for cortisol synthesis in the adrenal cortex. Research indicates a predisposition in children and adolescents with CAH towards adverse metabolic changes such as obesity, hypertension, insulin resistance and increased intima-media thickness. This study aims to compare the extent to which children and adolescents with CAH are effected in terms of respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, exercise capasity, physical fitness and physical activity levels compared o their matched healthy individuals.
WHYSKI is a prospective within-patient observational clinical study designed to test the hypothesis that alterations of Na+, K+, water, and the lympho-angiogenetic transcription factor Tonicity Enhancing Binding Protein (TonEBP) mRNA take place in the interstitium of the skin compartment of patients with arterial hypertension due to primary aldosteronism in whom hypertension can be surgically cured.
The goal of this multicenter, observational, analytic, randomized clinical trial is to analyze the laparoscopic and robot-assisted method in the surgical treatment of patients with adrenal diseases. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. to find the superiority of one the the surgical method mentioned above 2. to compare the quality of life in patients with adrenal mass before surgery and after laparoscopic or robotic-assisted adrenalectomy.
The purpose of this Phase 2, open-label, sequential dose cohort study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CRN04894 in participants with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated dried blood spots collected between the first day and 28 days of life of babies, after a consent sign by parents.
This study will evaluate the effects of different doses of Lu AG13909 in adult participants with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, also called CAH. CAH is a rare genetic disorder that affects a person's ability to produce certain hormones. The main goals of this study are to learn about the safety and tolerability of Lu AG13909, how Lu AG13909 behaves in the body, and how the body responds to Lu AG13909.
Background: Children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) can survive well into adulthood with proper treatment. But the change from pediatric to adult care can be challenging. Many people with CAH need extra support as they learn to take control of their own health care needs. Researchers have studied how people respond to different types of patient education. Now researchers want to find out if virtual education, via computer, is a good way to teach people how to manage CAH as they become adults. Objective: To test a virtual method of delivering patient education to adolescents and young adults with CAH. Eligibility: Adolescents and young adults aged 16 to 22 years who have CAH. They must already be enrolled in Natural History Study Protocol 06-CH-0011. Design: Participants may take part in the study remotely; they may also come to the clinic. They will have 3 visits in 1 year. Participants will complete questionnaires. Topics will include what they know about CAH; whether they remember to take their medications on their own; and whether they schedule their own appointments. They will be asked about their quality of life. They will be asked about their physical and emotional health. All participants will be taught how to care for themselves. The participants will be divided into 2 groups. Some will watch an 11-minute video on CAH that focuses on their goals as they become adults. The others will receive standard education. After 6 months, participants will receive CAH education again. After 12 months, participants will repeat the questionnaires from their first visit.
This is a questionnaire study involving women and young girls affected by Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) and their parents. The aim is to obtain information regarding the outcomes of conservative or surgical management of CAH at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital (RMCH) in the last 50 years, with specific reference to genital appearance and its impact on patient's social/physical/emotional/sexual outcomes. The study wants also investigate on the individuals and parental perspectives on the proposal to take away the option of early childhood surgery for girls with this condition.
An investigation of the safety and efficacy of tildacerfont in participants with CAH.
This pre-screening study is designed to determine potential eligibility of adults with classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) for participation in the CAH-301 [NCT04783181] gene therapy trial with BBP-631.
