About this study

Official title: Long-term (up to 3 Years) Clinical and Hormonal Outcomes in Acromegalic Patients With Treated Surgery With or Without Long Acting Somatostatin Analogues: Open-labeled, Prospective, Parallel Group Study

Long-term (up to 3 years) clinical and hormonal outcomes in acromegalic patients with treated surgery with or without long acting somatostatin analogues.

Read the detailed description

Patients who are diagnosed with acromegaly with a GH-secreting pituitary adenoma receiving TSA at the Asan Medical Center (Seoul, Korea) from Aug 2013 to Aug 2015 will be recruited.

The eligible patient population will consist of 30 adult, male and female patient with Age 18 or older.

  • Number of patients by treatment group: Surgical treatment only = 15, Surgery with medical treatment = 15
  • Number of Centers: 1 (single center)
Conditions
Acromegaly
Being tested
Sandostatin (Octreotide Acetate)
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sandostatin (Octreotide Acetate)Drug

    Also called Sandostatin LAR

    For the patients outlined above (refer to 2), subjects who are not able to be treated by surgery alone:

    • Dose: Sandostatin LAR® 20mg per 4 weeks for 3 months -> If serum IFG-1 levels fails to normalize, the dose of LAR will be increased to 30 mg.
    • Frequency: every 4 weeks.
    • Route of administration: IM injection.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of patients who achieved normalization of fasting serum IGF-1 (age and sex matched)

    Measured: Change from within 3days post-operative in fasting serum IGF-1at 36 months post-operative

  2. The time taken to IGF-1 normalization in each group.

    Measured: Change from within 3days post-operative in IGF-1 normalization at 36 months post-operative months post-operative

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. GH suppressive responses (a nadir GH < 0.4 ng/ml) to oral glucose

    Measured: Change from Pre-operative in GH suppressive responses (a nadir GH < 0.4 ng/ml) at 36 months post-operative

  2. Clinical symptom and sign with AcroQoL questionnaire

    Measured: Change from Pre-operative in Clinical symptom and sign with AcroQoL questionnaire at 36 months post-operative

  3. Sleep quality and disturbance with written questionnaire

    Measured: Change from Pre-operative in Sleep quality and disturbance with written questionnaire at 24 months post-operative

  4. fasting glucose , postprandial glucose

    Measured: Change from pre-operative in fasting glucose , postprandial glucose at 36 months post-operative.

  5. insulin

    Measured: Change from pre-operative in insulin at 36 months post-operative.

  6. HbA1c

    Measured: change from pre-operative in HbA1c at 36 months post-operative.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sandostatin (Octreotide Acetate) in people with Acromegaly, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact minseon Kim, PhD (82-2-3010-3245, mskim@amc.seoul.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients who achieved normalization of fasting serum IGF-1 (age and sex matched) (time frame: Change from within 3days post-operative in fasting serum IGF-1at 36 months post-operative). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
