About this study

Official title: Comparison of Treatment Outcome of Cabergoline According to Target Prolactin Levels in Patients With Prolactinoma: A Prospective, Randomized, Open Label, Active-controlled, Clinical Trial

The aim of this study is to investigate whether inhibition of serum prolactin levels below normal range during cabergoline administration may reduce the recurrence rate after drug withdrawal in patients with prolactinomas.

Read the detailed description

Prolactinoma patients will be assigned to a experimental group that maintains serum prolactin levels below 5 ng/mL and a control group that maintains normal serum prolactin levels. After that, cabergoline will be maintained at a therapeutic dose for 130 weeks. After cabergoline is discontinued, patients will be followed up with serum prolactin measurement for 52 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recurrence rate within 1 year after cabergoline withdrawal

    Record of PRL levels on every 3 month follow-up visit

    Measured: From 4 year to 5 years after cabergoline administration

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time to normalization of serum prolactin level

    Record of PRL levels on follow-up visit

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Change from baseline on tumor volume measured by pituitary MRI

    Record of he tumor volume from pituitary MRI on every 12-month follow-up visit

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Change from baseline of visual field defect

    Record the Visual field scale on every 6 month follow-up visit,

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cabergoline in people with Pituitary Adenoma and Prolactinoma, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 11 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 18 Mar 2020. 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 South Korea. 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 Jung Hyun Lee (82-2-2072-4073, leejh001515@naver.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence rate within 1 year after cabergoline withdrawal (time frame: From 4 year to 5 years after cabergoline administration). 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 18 Mar 2020.
