Trial summary

Non functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) are the most common pituitary adenomas. Their growth is usually slow and diagnosis is often made in the context of masse effect .The therapeutic alternatives are surgery and radiotherapy such as fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy.

About this study

Non functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) are the most common pituitary adenomas. Their growth is usually slow and diagnosis is often made in the context of masse effect .The therapeutic alternatives are surgery and radiotherapy such as fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy. Nowadays, there is no clinical or histological prognostic factor to allow an individualized follow-up and recurrence could happen 10 or 15 years after the first surgery. In this study, the investigators evaluate NFPAs recurrence rate after surgery and try to find predictive factors of recurrence to personalized the follow-up of each patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pituitary Adenomas, run by CHU de Reims 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2018. 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?

Recurrence rate / predictive factors of recurrence (time frame: up to 21 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 25 Oct 2018.
