Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 45 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Study population: Women in the reproductive age from 18 to 45 years of age will be qualified to the study group. Women will be recruited from among patients admitted to the University Hospital in Krakow. After qualifying for the study, each patient will be collected demographic data, information about medical history and medications, as well as anthropometric data.During the medical visit, patients will be presented with all information about participation in the study and only those who give their informed consent in writing will be qualified for the study. Based on the clinical picture and the results of laboratory tests (the level of TSH, fT4 in the plasma and the presence of thyroid autoantibodies), the patients will be divided into 2 groups - 30 women with hyperthyroidism, 30 women with hypothyroidism. 20 healthy women without any thyroid dysfunction will be the control group. The groups will be matched according to age, body mass index and smoking.

Who may be able to join

  • Graves' disease or Hashimoto's disease (positive thyroid autoantibody)
  • Control group: thyroid autoantibody negative, normal thyroid function
  • Women aged 18 to 45 in both the control group and experimental group

Who cannot join

  • Pregnancy and lactating women
  • Previous or planned treatment with 131I or thyroidectomy
  • The use of drugs affecting the thyroid function (lithium, amiodarone, interferon a, sodium nitroprusside, sunitinib, sorafenib, iodine contrast, antibiotics / antifungals / antivirals (for at least 4 weeks prior to recruitment to the study), which do not result from the treatment of thyroid disease (levothyroxine, thyreostatic drugs, glucocorticoids)
  • Active malignancy
  • Other autoimmune diseases
  • Other endocrine diseases
  • Patients with severe liver, kidney or heart failure

What participants receive

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

  • Serum BPADiagnostic test

    Serum BPA levels will be compared between women with autoimmune thyroid disease and normal women.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypothyroidism and Hyperthyroidism, run by Jagiellonian University at 1 site in Poland.

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 7 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 21 Jan 2022. 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 Poland. 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?

Comparison of serum BPA levels between the group with AITD and control group (time frame: Dec 2020 - April 2021). 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 21 Jan 2022.
