Outcome of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT Versus Adrenal Vein Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism
- Conditions
- Primary Aldosteronism
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT
- Registration Number
- NCT06238232
- Lead Sponsor
- Qifu Li
- Brief Summary
To compare the 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT and adrenal vein sampling on the long-term outcomes of primary aldosteronism (PA) patients with adrenal nodule (≥1cm)
- Detailed Description
This is a randomized study involving patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) patients with adrenal nodule (≥1cm) who completed AVS or 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT.We will enroll 320 PA patients with adrenal nodule (≥1cm) .All paticipants will be randomized into 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT group(Intervention group) and AVS group(Control group) to compare the long-term outcomes of patients with PA.

Group Intervention Description 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT group 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT Patients divided into 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT group need to undergo 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT examination and guide subsequent treatment based on the results
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The proportion of complete biochemical remission At 6 months of follow-up. Blood was drawn to measure aldosterone, renin and potassium.According to PASO criteria, outcomes of adrenalectomy for unilateral primary aldosteronism were classified into complete, partial, and absent success, for both clinical and biochemical outcomes.The proportion of complete biochemical remission according to PASO consensus criteria.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method In surgical population, the proportion of complete biochemical remission At 6 months of follow-up. Blood was drawn to measure aldosterone, renin and potassium.According to PASO criteria, outcomes of adrenalectomy for unilateral primary aldosteronism were classified into complete, partial, and absent success, for both clinical and biochemical outcomes.The proportion of complete biochemical remission according to PASO consensus criteria.
In surgical population, the proportion of complete clinical remission At 6 months of follow-up. Blood was drawn to measure aldosterone, renin and potassium.According to PASO criteria, outcomes of adrenalectomy for unilateral primary aldosteronism were classified into complete, partial, and absent success, for both clinical and biochemical outcomes.The proportion of complete biochemical remission according to PASO consensus criteria.
Total cost of diagnosis and treatment At baseline and 6 months of follow-up. After patients are determined to be enrolled, treatment costs incurred for the diagnostic process will be calculated for each subject. This includes CT,AVS or PET/CT, surgery, medications, etc.
Comparison of adverse events At baseline and 6 month of follow-up. The occurrence of adverse events was recorded, including PET/CT contrast agent allergy, adrenal vein hemorrhage and related adrenal insufficiency, hypertensive emergency, anaphylactic shock, venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, etc.
Daily defined doses (DDD) of antihypertensive agents At 6-12 months of follow-up. Prescribed daily dose (DDD) of antihypertensive drugs (including MRA) in each group after 6-12 months of follow-up.
Health Related Quality of Life At baseline and 6 months of follow-up. The quality of life in our patients may be influenced in different ways.AVS is an invasive test, PET/CT does not require any preparation of the patient before the test. Questionnaires of QOL-BREF will be conducted by patients before treatment and at 6-12 months follow-up in each group.This will allow for a detailed analysis of the impact of the two strategies on the quality of life of the patients.
The proportion of complete clinical remission At 6 months of follow-up. Blood was drawn to measure aldosterone, renin and potassium.According to PASO criteria, outcomes of adrenalectomy for unilateral primary aldosteronism were classified into complete, partial, and absent success, for both clinical and biochemical outcomes.The proportion of complete biochemical remission according to PASO consensus criteria.
