简要总结
Acromegaly is a disease due to an excess of growth hormone that abnormally occurs in adulthood. It is due to a benign (non cancerous) tumor located in a particular part of the brain that secretes several hormones, the hypophysis. The excess of growth hormones in adults induces an increase in bone (resulting in large enlargement of extremities), and organs. The disease is complicated by the apparition of cardiovascular events including retention of water, salt in the tissues and increase in blood pressure, that altogether might major the mortality of the patients. The investigators recently got experimental data suggesting that the retention of water and salt is mainly due to the activation by the growth hormone of a renal transporter of sodium. Because this transporter is highly sensitive to amiloride, a well know diuretic, the investigators hypothesize that this drug will be very efficient in treating the hypertension in patients, as compared to another diuretic, furosemide.
详细描述
To prove this, we compared the response to amiloride administrated before and after treatment of acromegaly in the same subject. We will also compare the response to furosemide administrated before and after treatment of acromegaly in the same subject. We expected that the response to amiloride will be greater before than after treatment, while the response to furosemide will be lesser before than after treatment.
Detailed Description:
Definition: Extended description of the protocol, including information not already contained in other fields, such as comparison(s) studied.
Patients will be recruited in the Department of Endocrinology and Reproductive diseases in BICETRE University Hospital and will be explored in the Centre for Clinical Investigation of HEGP. Investigations will be performed during 4 separate day-hospital stays (2 pre-treatment and 2 post treatment) in the CIC of HEGP. The tests will consist of blood and urine sample collections before and after a single dose administration of furosemide or amiloride. The tests will be performed before treatment of acromegaly in random order and separated by 48hours, interval performed before treatment, and repeated in the same order after normalization of IGF1 by appropriate treatment.
The study will last for 2 years, with a 12 months maximal participation of each patient
