Filter by:This research aims to establish clinical evidence for optimal treatment guidelines for adrenal diseases using real-world data. The approach involves building prospective and retrospective patient registries, which will be utilized to develop and conduct research on disease-specific protocols for adrenal disorders. The study targets patients with primary aldosteronism, pheochromocytoma, adrenal cancer, adrenal incidentalomas, and mild autonomous cortisol secretion. Registries for patients with adrenal diseases will be obtained from Seoul National University Hospital and Asan Medical Center, along with securing a common data model. The ultimate goal is to conduct research to generate clinical evidence for adrenal diseases using these resources.
Pheochromocytomas are tumors of the adrenal gland that develop from cells producing adrenaline and noradrenaline. Consequently, intraoperative blood pressure variations (hypertensive and hypotensive episodes) are characteristic of pheochromocytoma surgery, when these tumors are removed. However, recommendations for the management of these tumors are based on data essentially dating from the 1960s-1990s. Since then, anesthesia and surgery for patients with pheochromocytoma have evolved considerably, and have become more effective with time. In these circumstances, a review of the current situation is necessary. The aim of this study is to investigate the intraoperative hemodynamic changes observed in patients undergoing adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma, comparing them with the hemodynamic profile observed in patients undergoing adrenal surgery for a pathology other than pheochromocytoma (control group).
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.
Anlotinib is a multi-target receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting tumor angiogenesis and growth. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of contrast enhanced ultrasound in assessing effectiveness of anlotinib in patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or unresectable pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma(PPGL).
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate a new drug, HTL0039732, that will be administered on its own (as a monotherapy) and in combination with atezolizumab or with other approved anti-cancer therapies, in participants with advanced solid tumours.
Metastatic pheochromocytoma / paraganglioma (MPP) are rare while the prognosis was poor. Penpulimab is specifically an immune check-point inhibitor of PD1 and has been approved for the treatment of several malignancies.This phase II trial studies the efficacy and safety of penpulimab in the treatment of MPP patients who fail to other systemic therapy.
This phase II trial studies the effectiveness oftemozolomide in the neoadjuvant therapy oflocally advanced,or unresectable pheochromocytoma or paragangliom(PPGL). Temozolomide (TMZ) is a novel oral alkylation chemotherapeutic agent. Inthisstudy,temozolomidewill be used preoperatively in order to change unresectable tumors to resectable and reduce the high risk of surgery.
This phase II trial studies the effectiveness of anlotinib hydrochloride in the neoadjuvant therapy of locally advanced, or unresectable pheochromocytoma or paragangliom(PPGL). Anrotinib is used preoperatively in order to change unresectable tumors to resectable and reduce the high risk of surgery.
This observational study was conducted in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma(PPGL) resection. It mainly answers the following two main questions: 1. What are the risk factors for myocardial injury after laparoscopic PPGL resection？ 2. How to establish the myocardial injury prediction model of laparoscopic PPGL resection? Participants were not required to perform additional research work other than the usual postoperative follow-up within 30 days after surgery. No control group was set in this study, and no additional clinical intervention was performed.
Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) are rare neuroendocrine tumors originating from catecholamine producing chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla and extra-adrenal paraganglia. The overall age-standardized incidence rate is 0.18 per 100,000 person-years in Korea. The definitive treatment of PPGL is surgical excision of tumor. However, surgery is associated with a high risk of perioperative hemodynamic instability (HI). To avoid perioperative HI in patients diagnosed with PPGL, preoperative management including routine use of alpha blockade and volume expansion has been advocated by several guidelines. While unstable hypertension and tachycardia should be controlled in patients with PPGL, there is controversial that all patients diagnosed with PPGL should undergo preoperative pharmacological treatment, especially alpha blockade. The most important risk of preoperative alpha blockade use is perioperative hypotension. A recent study reported that patients diagnosed with PPGL postoperatively may have no further higher risk of intraoperative hypertension than those diagnosed preoperatively despite insufficient preoperatively management of PPGL. Therefore, it is a very important to study the relationship between HI and preoperative alpha blockade in normotensive patients diagnosed with PPGL. The aim this study is to analyze the effect and safety of omitting preoperative alpha-adrenergic blockade for normotensive pheochromocytoma through a prospective randomized controlled trial. The patients is divided into two groups. The patients in control group take a phenoxybenzamine at least 2 to 5 weeks before surgery. The patients in case group do not take a phenoxybenzamine. Primary outcome is to evaluate the percentage of time during surgery with systolic blood pressure more than 160mmHg or average blood pressure less than 60mmHg. And secondary outcomes are to evaluate hemodynamic instability in preoperative ward and postoperative ward.
