Trial summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of CXCR4 targeted PET imaging in preoperative localization diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA). Participants diagnosed with PA will be asked to be scanned by 68Ga-PentixaFor PET, and then underwent adrenal venous sampling (AVS). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Single Center Study on the Evaluation of Diagnostic Efficacy of CXCR4 Targeted PET Imaging in Primary Aldosteronism

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of CXCR4 targeted PET imaging in preoperative localization diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA). Participants diagnosed with PA will be asked to be scanned by 68Ga-PentixaFor PET, and then underwent adrenal venous sampling (AVS). Then, the responsible adrenal adenoma will be resected by adrenalectomy, and examined with pathological section and staining. Researchers will compare the sensitivity and specificity between 68Ga-PentixaFor PET imaging and AVS in preoperative localization diagnosis of PA.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CXCR4 in people with Aldosterone-Producing Adenoma, run by Zhongnan 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 17 Jul 2023. 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 Zhe Meng (+86 15387041020, mengzhe@whu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

renin (time frame: immediately after admission). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05839483, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 17 Jul 2023.
