20 years of pituitary tumor care
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks back at people who had surgery for pituitary tumors over the last 20 years. It aims to understand long-term outcomes and help improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery for a pituitary tumor
- Your tumor was confirmed as a pituitary tumor by a pathologist
- You were 18 or older when diagnosed
- You have at least 2 years of follow-up after surgery

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.
This study tests whether giving structured education to patients before pituitary surgery helps them prepare better. It aims to improve understanding and recovery by providing clear, standardized information.
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.
This trial tests hydrocortisone as hormone replacement therapy after surgery for large pituitary tumors. It aims to help patients maintain healthy cortisol levels during recovery.
This study looks at pituitary gland tumors (called Pit-NETs) using stored tumor samples and long-term follow-up information. It aims to learn more about how these tumors behave, which might help doctors treat them better in the future.
This research study examines the inflammatory environment inside pituitary tumors (small glands in the brain) to better understand how they grow and respond to treatment. You would have surgery to remove the tumor as part of your normal care, and researchers would study the removed tissue to learn more.
