Wearable patch for continuous steroid monitoring in adrenal disorders
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with an adrenal disorder, specifically adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease), Cushing syndrome, or primary aldosteronism.
- You have not used estrogen-containing birth control pills in the last 6 weeks.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have not used any steroid medications (oral, inhaled, injected, or topical) in the past 30 days.

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 tracks hormone levels and collects different health information to better understand primary aldosteronism, a condition where your adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone. It aims to improve diagnosis and 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 often adrenal insufficiency happens after surgery for primary aldosteronism, especially in patients who also have an overproduction of cortisol. It helps doctors understand if extra hormone support is needed after surgery.
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 is developing a better blood test to diagnose primary aldosteronism, a condition where the adrenal glands produce too much of a hormone called aldosterone, causing high blood pressure. Researchers are comparing results from healthy volunteers and patients suspected of having this condition to find the right cutoff numbers for the new test.
