Trial summary

Treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids has changed congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) from a fatal to a chronic lifelong disease. Long-term treatment, in particular the chronic (over-)treatment with glucocorticoids, may have an adverse effect on the cardiovascular risk profile in adult CAH patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Cardiovascular Risk Profile in Adult Patients With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Due to 21-hydroxylase Deficiency Diagnosed During Childhood

Treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids has changed congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) from a fatal to a chronic lifelong disease. Long-term treatment, in particular the chronic (over-)treatment with glucocorticoids, may have an adverse effect on the cardiovascular risk profile in adult CAH patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cardiovascular risk profile of adult CAH patients.

Treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids has changed congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) from a fatal to a chronic lifelong disease. Long-term treatment, in particular the chronic (over-)treatment with glucocorticoids, may have an adverse effect on the cardiovascular risk profile in adult CAH patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cardiovascular risk profile of adult CAH patients.

DESIGN: Case control study Primary objective : detection of cardiovascular damage in patients with classical or non classical CAH diagnosed in childhood. The patients will be compared with age- and gender- and tobacco status- matched control.

Secondary objective Study of microvascular function Evaluation of cardiovascular risk factors Total cumulative (TCG) and total average (TAG) glucocorticoid doses will be calculated from pediatric and adult files and correlated to arterial macro- and microcirculatory dysfunction.

Primary outcome Ultrasound evaluation of intima-media thickness at common carotids, carotid bulbs and left ventricular function Secondary outcome Peripheral and central blood pressure Skin capillary density and pulse-wave velocity Glucose and insulin during an oral glucose tolerance test Circulating cardiovascular risk markers (hsCRP, adiponectin, Interleukin-6) Lipid profile Anthropometry, fat and lean mass measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry Total cumulative dose of glucocorticoid Number of subjects : 90 patients/90 controls Inclusion criteria of CAH patients

  • Patients > 18 yrs with classical or non classical CAH diagnosed during childhood
  • Absence of known cardiovascular disease
  • Absence of combined oral contraceptives during the previous month Inclusion criteria of controls
  • Age under 18
  • Absence of known cardiovascular disease
  • Absence of combined oral contraceptives during the previous month

Duration of the inclusion period: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2016. 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 France. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Ultrasound evaluation of intima-media thickness (time frame: day 1). 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 17 Jun 2016.
