Active clinical trials for "Hypoparathyroidism"

The aim of this research is to determine the Effects of cervical rehabilitation program on neck pain, ROM and disability after thyroidectomy. Randomized controlled trials will be done at Pakistan ordinance factory (POF) Hospital. The sample size will be 52. The subjects were divided in two groups, with 26 subjects in Group A and 26 in Group B. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was Non probability Convenience Sampling technique. Both males and females of aged 30-50 years with thyroidectomy were included. Tools used in the study are Numeric Pain Rating Score (NPRS), goniometer and neck disability index (NDI).

The purpose of this study is to compare how rhPTH(1-84) affects the body between healthy adults of Japanese descent and matched, healthy Caucasian adults.

Chronic hypoparathyroidism is a life-long and irreversible disease for which the chronic administration of rhPTH(1-84) is a potential treatment option. The group of participants in the AAAE0544 core study has been taking rhPTH(1-84) for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism for up to 11 years. This study is designed to extend this experience and gain knowledge about how safe and effective rhPTH(1-84) is in participants with hypoparathyroidism over a long-term duration.

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.

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.

This is an observational, international, open label, pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of an oral PTH (1-34) preparation produced by Entera Bio in adult hypoparathyroid volunteers.

Whereas much information is known about the properties of bone in primary hyperparathyroidism, a disorder of parathyroid hormone (PTH) excess, virtually nothing is known about the skeleton in hypoparathyroidism, a disorder in which PTH is absent. The purpose of this research project is to test the hypothesis that the skeleton in hypoparathyroidism is abnormal in its metabolic, densitometric, geometric, biomechanical and microarchitectural features. We will also test the hypothesis that the skeleton is dependent upon PTH for normal structure and function. Using non-invasive approaches as well as direct analysis of bone itself, the human hypoparathyroid skeleton will be thoroughly characterized. With each patient serving as his/her own control, we will determine how, to what extent, and in what ways the administration of PTH restores skeletal dynamics and structure to the hypoparathyroid skeleton. In this way, we will identify those structural and dynamic elements of the skeleton that are influenced by or dependent upon PTH. Methods to be utilized include dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, quantitative central and peripheral computed tomography, geometry and size quantification, histomorphometry by standard and microCT methods, finite element analysis, biochemical bone markers, quantitative back scattered electron imaging, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. This research project will extend our knowledge of the skeletal effects of PTH to its deficient range and thus complete our understanding of PTH action on bone gained by our many years of studying PTH overexpression in primary hyperparathyroidism. This investigation may also provide insight into the means by which PTH helps to restore the skeleton when it is used to treat osteoporosis.

This study is investigating the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of AZP-3601 following single and repeated administration in both healthy volunteers and patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism (cHP) The protocol includes 3 parts: Part A: first-in-human single ascending dose (SAD) study in healthy volunteers Part B: multiple ascending dose (MAD) study with 2 weeks of treatment in healthy volunteers Part C: open-label MAD study with a total treatment duration of 3 months in patients with cHP.

Primary objective: Phase I Proof of concept: treatment with smaller doses of elemental calcium from ACC compared to CCS can maintain target serum calcium (corrected for albumin) values (7.0-10.0 mg/dL). Phase II To test the hypothesis that treatment with smaller doses of elemental calcium from ACC compared to CCS can maintain target serum calcium (corrected for albumin) values (7.0-10.0 mg/dL). Secondary objectives: Phase I ACC dose selection - to confirm the conversion factor of ACC from CCS To determine the effect of food on ACC absorption Phase II To test the hypothesis that treatment with smaller doses of elemental calcium from ACC compared to CCS will not cause an increase in hypercalciuria in patients with hypoparathyroidism To test the hypothesis that smaller doses of elemental calcium from ACC can reduce the side effects related with high calcium consumption. Amorphical has a strong basis to believe that the ACC product is better absorbed compared to the commercially available CCS products and therefore, can maintain desirable target albumin corrected calcium values in serum (CA) with smaller doses of elemental calcium from ACC. As results, the burden of taking high doses of calcium supplementation along with the side effects of the standard therapy (gastrointestinal discomfort and hypercalciuria) will be reduced. Testing serum CA and urine calcium values in subjects with hypoparathyroidism may provide a straightforward method to test this hypothesis. The study is designed to be conducted with extra precaution in order to avoid disturbing the fragile balance between CA levels in serum and calcium levels urine. The crossover design of phase II of the study allows a more accurate and reliable comparison of results attributable to the specific treatment within the same individual. In addition, the subjects will continue consuming all their routine medication throughout the trial. The subjects in the control arm will consume their routine calcium supplement doses thus, will be treated with a standard of care.

This study is a long-term, open-label study using NPSP558 for the treatment of adult patients with Hypoparathyroidism.
