Unilateral primary aldosteronism study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at the type, genetic changes, and symptoms of unilateral primary aldosteronism (a condition where one adrenal gland makes too much aldosterone hormone). It may help understand the disease better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with unilateral primary aldosteronism (UPA).
- You have had your entire affected adrenal gland surgically removed.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You do not have aldosteronism in both adrenal glands.
- You have had a full biochemical response after surgery.

This trial studies people with high blood pressure caused by a hormone problem called primary aldosteronism. If you qualify, the study may help doctors learn better ways to identify and manage this specific cause of blood pressure elevation.
This trial compares different ways of doing adrenal vein sampling (a test to find which adrenal gland is causing high blood pressure). It aims to see if combining methods works better than using just one for people with primary aldosteronism.
This study follows people with primary aldosteronism over time to understand their health outcomes. It may help doctors learn how to better treat this condition.
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.
This study looks at better ways to diagnose primary aldosteronism when lab results suggest the condition but standard diagnosis criteria haven’t been met. It may help you understand what your hormone pattern means and whether you need specific treatment.
This trial looks for better ways to diagnose primary aldosteronism (PA), a common cause of high blood pressure that can be treated. It may help find people whose hypertension is caused by this condition so they can get the right treatment sooner.
