Active clinical trials for "Hyperparathyroidism"

Assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of etelcalcetide in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in pediatric subjects between ≥ 2 to < 18 years of age, with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis

Pain is a major complaint in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) >250 pg/ml are associated with chronic pain. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score which is used to assess the pain severity is positively related to PTH levels. This study is aimed to assess the effects of multiple mega dosages vitamin D supplementations in HD patients with chronic pain. It's a single-center, parallel, double-blind randomized control trial that administrations of 576,000 IU once a week of vitamin D3 for 4 weeks or placebo are for 120 eligible subjects. VAS and laboratory tests including serum concentrations of 25(OH)D, calcium, phosphorus, PTH and C-reactive protein will be evaluated.

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PLS240 in patients with hemodialysis-dependent end stage kidney disease (ESKD) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). The study consists of two phases. First, a placebo-controlled, double-blind phase where patients will be randomly assigned to either receive dose-titrated PLS240 or matching placebo for 27 weeks. After the completion of the double-blind phase, patients will be eligible to enroll in the open-label extension phase, where they will receive dose-titrated PLS240 for an additional 26 weeks. Throughout the duration of the study, patients will be expected to attend multiple study visits where an investigator will collect blood, preform electrocardiograms (ECGs) and physical exams, and further assess the safety and efficacy of PLS240.

This is a Phase 3 Study of Etelcalcetide in Pediatric Subjects With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism and Chronic Kidney Disease on Hemodialysis

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of paricalcitol oral solution in pediatric participants of ages 0 to 9 years with SHPT associated with stage 5 CKD receiving Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) or Hemodialysis (HD). The 24-week study is divided into two 12-week dosing periods (Dosing Period 1 followed by Dosing Period 2).

Total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation (TPTX+AT) and Total parathyr- oidectomy alone (TPTX) are the common surgical procedures.The purpose of the study was to compare the long-term benefits of surgery between the two groups.

This is a phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in children with stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease (CKD), secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and vitamin D insufficiency.

Study content: This is a multicentre, double-blind, randomised controlled study to determine the optimal dose and duration of treatment for the correction of vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency in patients with CKD5d; to investigate whether vitamin D supplementation delays the increase in PTH levels in this group of patients; and to investigate the effects on changes in CKD-MBD-related markers, cardiovascular complications, cognitive function in this group of patients. 2. Study procedure: Based on the inclusion and exclusion of the patients, the study was conducted in accordance with the following criteria Study procedure: Eligible subjects were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly divided into three groups: high-dose vitamin D group, low-dose vitamin D group and control group. Baseline data were collected before the intervention and each group was given different doses of regular vitamin D2 softgels or placebo and followed up. 25(OH)D, PTH, blood Ca, and blood P levels were measured every month; bone metabolism markers, FGF23, and blood counts, liver function, kidney function, lipids, and blood glucose were measured every 3 months; the prevalence of vascular calcification, the incidence of cardiovascular events, and changes in cognitive function scale scores were assessed 6 months after the intervention.

This study will see if the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy (PTx) procedures is better than a surgeon's detection alone. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in PTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
