Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06874426Recruiting
How nose surgery on the skull base affects smell
This study looks at how having skull base surgery through the nose affects your sense of smell. It helps doctors learn more about changes in smell after this procedure.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18–70 - NCT03014687RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing sinus symptoms after pituitary surgery with antibiotics
This trial studies whether taking antibiotic medicine by mouth after endoscopic pituitary surgery can reduce post-surgery sinus and nasal symptoms. It may help people recover more comfortably and improve specific nasal outcome scores.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–84 - NCT06015802Recruiting
Predicting pituitary tumor behavior with markers and scans
This study looks at whether blood and tissue markers, along with imaging features, can predict how aggressive a pituitary neuroendocrine tumor is and how it may affect long-term health. It aims to improve treatment decisions by better understanding these tumors.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06297473Enrolling by invitation
Phone or video follow-up for pituitary tumor
This trial compares follow-up visits by phone or video to in-person checkups for people with non-functioning pituitary tumors. The goal is to see if remote checkups work just as well.
Køge, Region SjællandAges 18 years+ - NCT06584123Recruiting
Molecular imaging of pituitary adenoma with 18F-FET PET
This study uses a special PET scan (18F-FET) to get clearer images of pituitary adenomas (non-cancerous growths at the base of the brain). It is for people who have already had one type of PET scan and can help doctors understand the tumor better without invasive procedures.
Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 18–100 - NCT06705036Recruiting
Study of invasive pituitary tumors in nearby brain areas
This trial studies pituitary tumors that have spread into a nearby area called the cavernous sinus. It aims to learn more about these tumors by looking at donated tissue samples and health information to improve future care.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07595666Enrolling by invitation
New PET scanner versus standard PET for head and neck imaging
This study compares a newer PET/CT scanner (called NeuroEXPLORER) with standard PET/CT scanners for imaging the head and neck region. The goal is to see if the new scanner provides better or clearer images to help diagnose conditions.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06523582Recruiting
Genetic study of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients
This study aims to find genetic causes of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients. By understanding your DNA, researchers hope to improve diagnosis and treatment for people with these rare conditions.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06448195RecruitingPhase 4
Growth Hormone for Fatty Liver After Pituitary Surgery
This trial tests whether growth hormone therapy can improve liver health and metabolic function in people who have fatty liver after pituitary tumor surgery. It is for adults with growth hormone deficiency who have excess fat in their liver.
ShanghaiAges 18–60 - NCT04081701RecruitingPhase 4
Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/MRI for somatostatin-receptor brain tumors
This trial tests how well a special scan (Ga-68 DOTATATE PET combined with MRI) helps diagnose and guide treatment for certain brain tumors that have somatostatin receptors. It may help doctors better find tumor recurrence or remaining tumor after treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18–100 - NCT05254197Recruiting
Brain tumor monitoring study with follow-up brain scans
This study follows people with lower-grade (WHO grade 2 or less) brain tumors using repeat MRI scans over time. It helps doctors understand how these tumors change and which patients may safely delay treatment at first.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT05727605Recruiting
Thinking changes after radiotherapy for brain and skull-base tumors
This trial studies how radiotherapy affects memory and thinking in adults with certain brain or skull-base tumors. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to have thinking changes and how to monitor or support patients.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT07108244Enrolling by invitation
Better brain scan for small pituitary tumors in Cushing's disease
This study tests a special type of brain scan (PET-MRI) to better find tiny pituitary tumors causing Cushing's disease. It may help people whose standard MRI didn't show a clear tumor.
