About this study

Official title: Gene Expression in Hyperparathyroidism: Identifying Molecular Differences in MEN1 Patients Versus Young MEN1 Negative Patients

Objectives:

  1. To better define the differences in molecular genetics of parathyroid tumors in patients with MEN1, single gland parathyroid disease in patients less than 50 years old and single gland disease in patients greater than 50 years old.
  2. To better define the incidence of HRPT2 mutation in young patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and determine whether routine testing in these patients is indicated.
Read the detailed description

Patient charts will be reviewed to collect demographic data, pre-operative and post-operative clinical and laboratory data, operative reports, and pathology reports. Archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks from surgical specimens of patients will be stained for parafibromin to evaluate for HRPT2 mutations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Molecular Genetics of Parathyroid Tumors

    RNA isolated from banked frozen tissues. cDNA microarray prepared using an Illumina array chip. Results analyzed using Ingenuity analysis software to detect 2-fold changes in gene expression. T-statistics used to determine significantly discriminating genes.

    Measured: 10 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. HRPT2 Mutations

    Archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks from surgical specimens of patients stained for parafibromin to evaluate for HRPT2 mutations.

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parathyroid Disease and Hyperparathyroidism, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2019. 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 United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: At the request of the Principal Investigator). Results are not available in the source record.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Molecular Genetics of Parathyroid Tumors (time frame: 10 years). 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 23 May 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
