Steroid levels check in congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study checks hormone levels in saliva and blood using a precise test to better understand how the body balances steroids in people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a condition that affects hormone production.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study is building a reference range for a simple saliva test that measures cortisol, a hormone linked to stress and adrenal function. It may help diagnose conditions like Cushing's syndrome or adrenal insufficiency.
This early study tests Lu AG13909 in people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. It aims to see how the drug affects hormone levels and whether it is safe for different CAH hormone patterns.
This study tests a new wearable biosensor that measures steroid hormone levels in your skin fluid. It may help doctors better manage adrenal conditions by continuously monitoring cortisol and aldosterone without blood draws.
This trial studies whether a once-daily hydrocortisone tablet works as well as standard steroid treatment for adults with congenital adrenal hyperplasia caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. It aims to improve how safely and conveniently hormone replacement is taken each day.
This study tests a new medication for children with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). It aims to see if the drug helps better control hormone levels and reduce the need for high doses of current steroid medicines.
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.
