Filter by:This study describes a single center, randomized, single-blinded clinical trial to assess the clinical benefits of the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during total thyroidectomy (TTx). It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in TTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
This is a multi-center, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, multiple-ascending dose study in patients with hypoparathyroidism. The total duration of study medication treatment will be 13 weeks and includes a Fixed-Dose Treatment period and a Dose Titration Treatment period. The Fixed-Dose Treatment period consists of multiple daily dosing at a fixed dose level. Once patients have completed the Fixed-Dose Treatment period, patients will enter the Dose Titration Treatment period where PCO371 (or placebo), oral calcium and oral active vitamin D can each be titrated according to the patient's albumin-corrected serum calcium level.
The objective of this ongoing randomized controlled trial is to examine whether the use of intra-operative NIR(near infrared) camera can reduce the number of patients who experience transient or persistent hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy and completion thyroidectomy, both in malignant and benign thyroid disease.
To investigate changes in sclerostin levels following acute post-thyroidectomy hypoparathyroidism
Pediatric hypoparathyroidism is an orphan disease. Conventional management combines native and active vitamin D, calcium supplementation and sometimes phosphate binders, with the risk of long term hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis and further renal impairment. The use of teriparatide has been reported in adults (daily or bi-daily subcutaneous infusions) and in children (rather continuous subcutaneous infusion) as second-line therapy. The objective of this study is to obtain efficacy and safety data on the use of teriparatide in children with hypoparathyroidism to improve our knowledge of their management.
This is an observational pilot study for the evaluation of immune function, infectious diseases, psychometric status and quality of life in patients with hypoparathyroidism compared to healthy controls.
Persistent hypoparathyroidism is an underestimate but major complication of total thyroidectomy. The hypothesis of the investigators is that the mental health is impaired in hypoparathyroid patients compared with thyroidectomized patients without hypoparathyroidism. The investigators evaluated the quality of life using the SF-36 survey in comparison with a control population of patients thyroidectomized but free from this complication. The voice quality, the cardiovascular risk, the kidney function and the incidence of urinary lithiasis were also evaluated.
The intensity of parathyroid fluorescence that occurs after intravenous injection of indocyanine green during the performance of a total thyroidectomy correlates with postoperative parathyroid function and could be used as a diagnostic marker of postoperative hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia.
During the first four weeks of the trial, participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: three groups will receive fixed doses of TransCon PTH and one group will receive placebo. 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 four 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. This is a global trial that will be conducted in, but not limited to, the United States, Canada, Germany, Denmark, and Norway.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the prognostic value of intra-operative indocyanine staining scoring concerning 24 hours post-operative PTH levels and the possible advantages that its' use can give in terms of clinical practice compared to conventionally operated patients.
