What is being measured

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

  1. the presence/absence of hypoparathyroidism

    hypoparathyroidism is defined as: corrected serum calcium Day 1 <1.90 and / or symptoms of hypocalcemia (cramps, tingling of the extremities and peri-oral) to Day 1 authenticated by a VAS score> 3.

    Measured: day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypoparathyroidism, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes 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 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

the presence/absence of hypoparathyroidism (time frame: day 1). 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 NCT02924532, 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?
