Primary Hyperparathyroidism clinical trials at UCSF

2 research studies open to eligible people

Primary hyperparathyroidism is when the parathyroid glands produce too much hormone. UCSF is exploring a PET scan technique using 18F-fluorocholine to identify parathyroid adenomas. UCSF is also investigating the genetic characteristics of tumors in those having parathyroid surgery.

Showing trials for

  • 18F-Fluorocholine Positron Emission Tomography (PET) for the Detection of Parathyroid Adenomas

    open to eligible people ages 13 years and up

    This is a prospective single arm single center Phase III study evaluating the ability of 18F-fluorocholine to detect the location of parathyroid adenomas.

  • Parathyroid Tumor Clonal Status

    open to eligible females ages 18-80

    To define the frequency of monoclonal-X and polyclonal-X tumors in PHPT participants having parathyroidectomy (PTX) and to define the relationship between parathyroid tumor clonal status and multiple gland neoplasia (MGN), we will compare surgical and pathologic outcomes to tumor clonal status in a multicenter cohort of patients having bilateral neck exploration (BNE) and PTX (primary objectives).
