Study Details

Brief summary:

This is a prospective three-year natural history study of adults with hypoparathyroidism. The goal is to monitor patients with hypoparathyroidism to define end-organ damage in the context of the disease.

The study objectives are to:

1. Build a prospective cohort of patients to study HPT-associated end-organ damage.
2. Determine end-organ physiologic consequences of HPT.
3. Elucidate determinants of HPT-associated end-organ damage.

All HPT sub-types are eligible, including surgical (HPT-S) and nonsurgical (HPT-NS) HPT: autoimmune, genetic (including but not limited to: DiGeorge syndrome, autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1, hypoparathyroidism sensorineural deafness and renal disease syndrome, Kearns-Sayre syndrome, mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes \[MELAS\] syndrome, mitochondrial trifunctional protein \[MTP\] deficiency syndrome, Kenny-Caffey syndrome, Sanjad-Sakati syndrome, autosomal dominant hypocalcemia), infiltrative (granulomatous), mineral deposition (copper, iron), metastatic, radiation and idiopathic HPT.
  • Diagnosis of HPT established based on historic hypocalcemia in the setting of inappropriately low serum PTH levels on two occasions.
  • All treatment regimens are permitted, including but not limited to conventional management with calcium (e.g. calcium citrate, calcium carbonate, etc), active vitamin D (calcitriol, alfacalcidol), parent vitamin D, magnesium, phosphate binders and thiazides. Use of PTH-like drugs are permitted.

Exclusion Criteria:
