Summary
Study start date: December 15, 1993
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.Observational: Patients with confirmed or suspected primary hyperparathyroidism or complications therefrom (such as postoperative hypoparathyroidism) will be admitted for diagnosis and treatment. The principal diagnostic components are calcium in serum and urine, parathyroid hormone in serum, and mutation tests on germline or tumor DNA. Patients with moderate to severe primary hyperparathyroidism will be treated. Treatment will be mainly by parathyroidectomy. Other options are medications or no intervention. Patients with a hyperparathyroid syndrome may be managed for their extraparathyroid features. Preoperative testing to localize parathyroid neoplasm(s) will be used usually and with more extended methods in cases with prior neck surgery. Preoperative tumor localization tests will be selected according to clinical indications from the following: ultrasound, technetium-thallium scan, computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, fine needle aspiration for parathyroid hormone assay, selective arteriogram, selective venous catheterization for parathyroid hormone assay. Options for management of postoperative hypocalcemia include calcium, vitamin D analogs, parathyroid autografts and synthetic parathyroid hormone. Research specimens may consist of blood or tumors. Clinical Trial: An imaging substudy was added to this protocol in 2018. Patients with MEN1 will have 68Ga-Dotatate PET/CT, 18F-DOPA PET/CT, MRI, and CT scans and the number of lesions detected by each of these types of scans will be compared.
