Parathyroid Auto-transplantation: Prospective Randomized Trial of the Personalized Site

A study testing injection with a syringe in new-site for parathyroid autografting and injection with a syringe in traditional site for parathyroid autografting in people with Parathyroid Autologous Transplantation, run by Tongji Hospital at 1 site in China.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

The functional parathyroid auto-transplantation (PA) could release parathyroid hormone (PTH) into the circulatory system of the body through the capillaries. But when parathyroid glands were auto-grafted in the sternocleidomastoid muscle, it would be inconvenient to detect PTH to examine whether the graft functions. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology

The functional parathyroid auto-transplantation (PA) could release parathyroid hormone (PTH) into the circulatory system of the body through the capillaries. But when parathyroid glands were auto-grafted in the sternocleidomastoid muscle, it would be inconvenient to detect PTH to examine whether the graft functions. So the investigators took the forearm as the aim place for auto-transplantation, either subcutaneous or brachioradialis, with its relatively fixed - antecubital vein blood test which is simple. The survival criteria is assumed as the PTH gradient of 1.5 times or greater through comparing the bilateral PTH value in grafted and not-grafted forearm.

What participants receive

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

  • injection with a syringe in new-site for parathyroid autograftingProcedure or surgery

    Also called parathyroid autotransplantation, parathyroid auto-implantation, parathyroid auto-graft

    new-site for parathyroid autografting, close to the antecubital vein

  • injection with a syringe in traditional site for parathyroid autograftingProcedure or surgery

    traditional-site for parathyroid autografting,not intensively close to the antecubital vein

What is being measured

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

  1. parahthyroid hormone gradient by comparing between grafted and non-grafted forearm

    The survival criteria is that the gradient of parathyroid hormone reaches 1.5 time or greater by comparing between grafted and non-grafted forearm

    Measured: 1 months, 3 months and 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. hypoparathyroidism: parathyroid hormone less than 15pg/ml(range from 15 to 65pg/ml)

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing injection with a syringe in new-site for parathyroid autografting and injection with a syringe in traditional site for parathyroid autografting in people with Parathyroid Autologous Transplantation, run by Tongji Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Gaosong Wu, PhD (0086-138-7144-4606, wugaosongtj@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

parahthyroid hormone gradient by comparing between grafted and non-grafted forearm (time frame: 1 months, 3 months and 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02906748, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Sep 2016.
