Tests and tracks treatment for adrenal hormone tumor diseases
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial studies how adrenal hormone tumor diseases should be diagnosed, treated, and followed over time. It may help people get more precise care and better prediction of outcomes, but it has specific health and medication requirements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 75 years old
- Have one of these adrenal tumor diagnoses: primary aldosteronism, pheochromocytoma, or adrenal cortical cancer
- Be able to give written informed consent and follow study instructions
- Avoid significant kidney problems (creatinine more than 2× the lab’s upper limit)
- Agree not to join if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Use of corticosteroid medicines and several heart/stroke timing issues may exclude you

This study is building a medical database for people with adrenal gland problems like Cushing's syndrome or adrenal tumors. It may help doctors understand these conditions better and improve future care.
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 trial tests if measuring a specific steroid can help find which patients with primary aldosteronism (a condition where the adrenal glands make too much of the hormone aldosterone) might be cured by surgery. You would undergo imaging and blood tests from the adrenal veins to see if the problem is in one gland.
This trial studies how to use lab tests (“molecular markers”) in routine clinical care to help manage people with adrenal tumors that could be cancerous. If you are having surgery soon (or recently), your tissue may be tested to see if these markers improve decision-making for your care.
This trial tests a special PET scan that may help doctors find the exact cause of high blood pressure related to an adrenal gland problem. It could help decide if surgery or medicine is the best treatment for you.
This study looks at the genes and molecules in people with primary aldosteronism (a condition where the adrenal glands make too much of the hormone aldosterone), primary hypertension (high blood pressure), and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand these conditions and find better ways to diagnose and treat them.
