Filter by:The goal of this randomized control trial is to test if growth hormone therapy is a safe and effective treatment for patients suffering from growth hormone deficiency and persistent post-concussion symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is growth hormone therapy effective at mitigating persisting post-concussion symptoms in patients with growth hormone deficiency? 2. Is it feasible to conduct a larger trial to examine efficacy of growth hormone therapy in patients with persistent post-concussion symptoms and growth hormone deficiency? Participants will be asked to complete an initial assessment for study inclusion and to complete clinical outcome questionnaires. If a participant meets study criteria they will be randomized to receive either growth hormone therapy (provided by Pfizer) or a placebo (provided by Pfizer). Participants will be instructed on how to self-administer their assigned drug daily for three months. Monthly follow-up visits will include a blood draw to measure a biomarker and clinical outcome questionnaires. At the final follow-up visit after three months, participants will learn what group they were assigned and given the option to complete the growth hormone therapy if they were originally assigned to the placebo group. Researchers will compare the growth hormone therapy group to the placebo group to identify any potential differences in outcomes.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/2 study evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of VCTX211 Combination Product in Subjects with T1D
RADIANT is a network of 14 clinical sites and several laboratories dedicated to the study of atypical diabetes. The objective of this study is to define new forms of diabetes and the unique mechanisms underlying these forms of atypical diabetes. The specific aims are to: 1. Identify and enroll individuals and families with undiagnosed rare and atypical forms of diabetes. 2. Determine the etiologic basis of the metabolic disorder among individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical diabetes. 3. Understand the pathophysiology of individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical forms of diabetes.

An investigation of the dietary supplement marketed as "Premama Balance" on markers of subjective wellbeing in trial participants such as common symptoms of PMS and menstrual symptoms, as well as its effects on aiding in returning to their perceived regular/normal menstrual cycle.
Therapeutic Confirmatory Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of DWP16001 in Combination with Metformin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus who Have Inadequate Glycemic Control on Metformin Alone.
This is a case report of a 14-year old female with no menstruation history.
The investigators will study if group education for parents of adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) will improve the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators aim to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of parent group education sessions to assess the feasibility and refine the intervention to inform a full-scale multicenter RCT. The aims of the pilot are to estimate: 1. Recruitment rate, 2. Adherence rate, 3. Response rate, and 4. Retention rate. The aims for the future full-scale multicenter RCT are to assess the effect of parent group education sessions integrated into pediatric care, compared with usual care on self-management, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), adverse outcomes and validated measures during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators will conduct a parallel group, blinded (outcome assessors, data analysts), superiority pilot RCT of parents and their adolescents with T1D (14-16 years of age) followed at a university teaching hospital-based pediatric diabetes clinic in Montreal. Interventions will occur over 12-months. Follow-up will be to 18 months from enrollment.
This study is limited to conduct in China only. The primary objective is to assess the treatment effect of daily TransCon PTH on serum calcium (sCa) levels within the normal range and stopping from therapeutic doses of active vitamin D (calcitriol) or active vitamin D analogue (alfacalcidol) and calcium at 26 weeks of treatment. All subjects will start with 18 mcg of study drug and will be individually and progressively titrated to an optimal dose over a 26-week double blind period, followed by an open label extension period up to 156 weeks. TransCon PTH or placebo will be administered as a subcutaneous injection using a pre-filled injection pen. Neither trial participants nor their doctors will know who has been assigned to each group. After the 26 weeks, participants will continue in the trial as part of a long-term extension study. During the extension, all participants will receive TransCon PTH, with the dose adjusted to their individual needs.
The pituitary gland is a small pea-sized gland that produces a variety of important hormones. Some children are born with a deficient production of two or more pituitary hormones. This rare and potentially severe disease is called congenital combined pituitary hormone deficiency (cCPHD). cCPHD can cause many different symptoms, some of which appear shortly after birth and others later in childhood. Symptoms that appear shortly after birth are e.g., development of very low blood sugar, disturbances in the salt balance, and severe dehydration, whereas symptoms that appear later in life are short stature, missing pubertal development, fatigue, and sensitiveness to cold. Fortunately, it is possible to replace the missing hormones. Currently, it is unknown how common cCPHD is. Therefore, the investigators wish to examine 1) how many children are diagnosed with cCPHD before the age of 18 years, 2) how many children are diagnosed with cCPHD at age <1 year, 1-8 years, 9-17 years, and 3) the patients' hormone deficiency characteristics and brain MRI scans. The investigators will identify the patients by searching for diagnosis codes used for pituitary disease and pituitary malformations in the Danish National Patient Registry and locally at the four hospitals approved for the treatment of cCPHD in children. Through the searches, the investigators expect to identify approximately 1500 patients. The investigators will then review the hospital files of all identified patients to exclude patients with only one hormone deficiency and patients with an acquired cause of the disease. The investigators aim to include all cCPHD patients in Denmark born in the period 1996 and 2020.
