Filter by:This clinical study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of repeated dosing of recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH[1-84]) in Japanese participants with chronic hypoparathyroidism for a 26-week period.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and Hypoparathyroidism (HP) are two of the most frequent disorder of Calcium-Phosphorus (Ca-P) metabolism. The Ca/P ratio is an accurate tool to differentiate patients with PHPT from healthy subjects, according to a previous single-centre study. The reliability of this index is based on the fact that serum Ca and P are inversely related together either in healthy subjects or in patients with PHPT and HP.
Hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) is characterized by low levels of PTH. In this study we will test the effects of a liquid meal on the bone remodeling in participants with hypoparathyroidism. Furthermore, we will test the effects of the gut hormones GIP and GLP-2.
A Randomized, active comparator, two-part, partial crossover design. The study is designed to assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of EnteraBio's Oral PTH(1-34) [EB612 (EBP05)] in adult patients with hypoparathyroidism.
To study the protective effect of suture parathyroid marker method on the function of parathyroid gland in thyroid cancer surgery
Long-term conventional treatment of chronic hypoparathyroidism does not fully restore calcium homeostasis leading to increased morbidity, emergency events and reduced subjective health status. To further investigate general morbidity, hypocalcemic events, subjective and daily life performance in patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism a disease specific questionnaire, as well as the SF-36 are handed out.
Hypoparathyroidism is an endocrinopathy characterized by a deficient secretion or action of PTH associated with low calcium level. According to the European guideline (2015), standard treatment includes oral calcium salts and active vitamin D metabolites to relieve symptoms of hypocalcaemia, maintain serum calcium levels in the low normal range and improve the patient's QoL Calcium carbonate is most often used and less expensive than other calcium preparations and contains the highest concentration of elemental calcium per gram (42%). It requires gastric hydrochloric acid to form carbonic acid (H2CO3) that immediately decomposes into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). CO2 is responsible for its side effects such as flatulence, constipation and general gastrointestinal disorders. Therefore, in some patients it is better to find an alternative to calcium carbonate. Calcium citrate should be recommended to patients with achlorhydria or on treatment with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) as well as to patients who preferred to take supplements outside mealtimes. furthermore, patients with hypoparathyroidism have an increased risk of kidney stones. Kidney stones are formed by calcium salts, among which the most frequent ones are calcium-oxalate (70-80%), followed by calcium-phosphate and uric acid. Citrate salts are widely used in the treatmentof nephrolithiasis, since have shown an inhibitory effect on kidney stone formation. Up to now, there are no studies aimed to investigate the efficacy of calcium citrate in the management of subjects with chronic hypoparathyroidism. In particular, we will investigate if calcium citrate compared to calcium carbonate does not affect the risk of renal stones, if it is able to maintain normal calcium levels and, if it has an impact on QOL, in subjects with chronic hypoparathyroidism.
This study is open to adults with hypoparathyroidism who complete the SHP634-101 study (PARALLAX Study). The purpose of this study is to see if rhPTH(1-84) is safe and effective in adults with hypoparathyroidism who previously participated in the SHP634-101 study. All participants enrolled in this study will receive rhPTH(1-84) once-daily for 52 weeks via an injection. Patients who complete the SHP634-101 study will have the option to screen for this extension study.
Recombinant human parathyroid hormone, also known as if rhPTH(1-84), is a medicine to treat people with Hypothyroidism. The main aim of this study is to learn if rhPTH(1-84) can improve symptoms in adults with hypoparathyroidism. In this study, participants will receive 1 of 2 treatments: rhPTH(1-84) or a placebo. A placebo looks like the medicine being studied but does not have medicine in it. In this study, the placebo will be a standard treatment which is either active Vitamin D, or active Vitamin D with calcium. Active Vitamin D is a form of vitamin D that has a faster effect on the body. These treatments will be given as a daily injection just under the skin. Participants will not know which treatment they received, nor will their study doctors. This is to help make sure the results are more reliable. All participants will also take active vitamin D and calcium supplements during treatment. Participants will record their symptoms in a tool called the hypoparathyroidism symptom diary. This tool is used to assess symptoms and their impact and will give an overall score for each participant. The study doctors will also check for side effects from the study treatments. After treatment, researchers will check if there is any difference in the diary scores between the 2 treatment groups. A difference in score means there is a difference in symptoms and their impact. From this, researchers will learn if symptoms have improved for participants treated with rhPTH(1-84) compared with those treated with placebo.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of intraoperative continous and intermittent neuromonitoring and intraoperative parathormone (PTH) to predict postoperative nerve morbidity and hypocalcemia.
