About this study

Official title: Parathyroid Allotransplant for Treatment of Hypoparathyroidism: PATTH

This study is being done to see if transplanting parathyroid tissue into the forearm will help hypo-parathyroid patients achieve parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels that would help normalize their serum calcium and phosphorus levels. The parathyroid tissue used in this study will come from cadaveric tissues that were donated at the time of the death of the donor(s).

Read the detailed description

The company that makes the parathyroid hormone NATPARA will no longer be making the product by the end of 2024 which is one of the reasons the investigators are doing this study: to see if parathyroid transplantation is another way to treat hypoparathyroidism. This procedure is investigational and one of the first times the procedure is being done in humans. It is not approved by the FDA.

What is being measured

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

  1. Levels of intact PTH

    The primary efficacy endpoint is attainment of levels of intact PTH levels that are in the normal range and at least double the baseline intact PTH level at one year following the PTG transplant from a single donor.

    Measured: From baseline to week 52 (year 1)

  2. Incidence of Serious Adverse Events

    The primary safety endpoints are the incidence of serious adverse events related to the transplant procedure or immunosuppression, incidence of post- transplant infections and malignancies, incidence of de novo sensitization.

    Measured: From baseline to Year 1

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Dose of oral calcium supplements and calcitrol

    in patients on conventional Ca and calcitriol supplementation, a 50% reduction in the pre-transplant oral dose of calcium supplements and calcitrol with maintenance of stable serum calcium in the normal;

    Measured: From baseline to week 52 (year 1)

  2. Dose of subcutaneous parathyroid hormone (PTH) replacement therapy

    for patients on subcutaneous PTH replacement therapy, a 50% reduction in the dose of PTH replacement therapy with maintenance of serum calcium in the normal target range.

    Measured: From baseline to week 52 (year 1)

  3. PTH replacement therapy

    Discontinuation of PTH replacement therapy while maintaining serum calcium in the normal target range while taking 1000 mg or less of elemental calcium in the form of calcium supplements.

    Measured: From baseline to week 52 (year 1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Parathyroid Allotransplant in people with Hypoparathyroidism and Hypoparathyroidism Postprocedural, run by Peter Stock at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2026. 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 United States. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Crystal Loucel, MPH, MS, RN (415-476-3229, Crystal.Loucel@ucsf.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Levels of intact PTH (time frame: From baseline to week 52 (year 1)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Feb 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
