Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the most common cause of hypercalcemia in the ambulatory setting. PHPT may be cured with surgery and indications for intervention have been defined and include urinary calcium/creatinine clearance. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), the most commonly prescribed medication for hypertension, reduces urinary calcium excretion and confounds urinary testing. As a result, it is universally recommended that thiazide diuretics be stopped in advance of urinary testing. To date, no studies are available to provide evidence-based guidance as to how long HCTZ must be held for urinary calcium excretion to return to steady state in PHPT. The objective of this study is to serially calculate urinary calcium/creatinine clearance ration in patients with suspected PHPT while holding HCTZ to determine the minimum duration of medication cessation necessary for urinary calcium clearance to reach steady state.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
