Circadian rhythm genes in adrenal and cortisol disorders
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how your body's internal clock genes may be affected by adrenal problems or Cushing's syndrome, and how they might change with treatment. It aims to better understand these conditions and potentially improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with primary or secondary chronic adrenal insufficiency, or Cushing's syndrome (new or recurring).
- You are willing to provide a blood sample for genetic and hormone testing.
- You are not currently pregnant.
- You do not have severe heart, kidney, liver, or other major health conditions.
- You do not have a history of cancer (except certain benign adrenal or pituitary tumors).
- You have not had major surgery or a severe infection in the last 3 months.

This study follows adults with a new adrenal diagnosis to learn how adrenal diseases behave over time. It may help doctors better understand these conditions and improve future care.
This study tests whether updated cortisol test numbers better identify adrenal insufficiency, a hormone condition where your body doesn’t make enough stress hormone. It may help doctors confirm the diagnosis and choose safer next steps for treatment.
This study looks at how Cushing’s syndrome affects people before treatment and what changes after treatment. It may help researchers understand what to expect and improve care for adults with newly diagnosed Cushing’s syndrome.
This study checks long-term health in people who were treated successfully for Cushing disease when they were under 21. It also collects information from family members to study genetic links to pituitary tumors.
This study tests a wearable patch that measures cortisol and aldosterone levels continuously through skin fluid, aiming to improve management of adrenal disorders. If you have Addison's disease, Cushing syndrome, or primary aldosteronism, this could offer a more convenient way to monitor your condition.
This is a study that collects and reviews information about how people with Cushing’s syndrome (including some mild forms and certain “silent” tumors) are diagnosed and treated, and what outcomes they have. It may help researchers understand which treatments work best in different types of the condition.
