Study Overview

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.

  • Pregnant or lactating women; with alcohol or drug abuse and mental disorders.
  • Congestive heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification III or IV; History of serious cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease (angina, myocardial infarction or stroke) in the past 3 months; Severe anemia (Hb<60g/L); Serious liver dysfunction or chronic kidney disease aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine transaminase (ALT) >3 times the upper limit of normal, or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2); Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS); Uncontrolled diabetes (FBG≥13.3 mmol/L); Obesity (BMI≥35 kg/m²) or Underweight (BMI≤18 kg/m²); Untreated aneurysm; Other comorbidity potentially interfering with treatment

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The proportion of complete biochemical remission

Time Frame: 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 Outcomes

  • In surgical population, the proportion of complete biochemical remission(At 6 months of follow-up.)
  • In surgical population, the proportion of complete clinical remission(At 6 months of follow-up.)
  • Total cost of diagnosis and treatment(At baseline and 6 months of follow-up.)
  • Comparison of adverse events(At baseline and 6 month of follow-up.)
  • Daily defined doses (DDD) of antihypertensive agents(At 6-12 months of follow-up.)
  • Health Related Quality of Life(At baseline and 6 months of follow-up.)
  • The proportion of complete clinical remission(At 6 months of follow-up.)
