研究概览
简要总结
This work will evaluate the effects of mitotane treatment on serum protein concentrations in patients treated for ACC with mitotane therapy and compare them to patients with an adrenal neoplasm and pregnant cohort. All of the individuals were treated at King's Hospital between April 2019 and June 2020. Proteins which will be evaluated during this study, include CBG and TBG.
详细描述
Background: Adrenocortical Carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy of the adrenal cortex. The annual incidence of ACC is thought to be between 0.5-2.0 cases per million. Adjunctive therapy with mitotane may be offered post- surgically to minimise risk of recurrence.
Aims: Evaluate the effects of mitotane treatment on serum protein concentrations in patients treated for ACC with mitotane therapy and compare to patients with an adrenal neoplasm and a pregnant cohort. Patients were treated at King's Hospital between April 2019 and June 2020.
Methods: Cortisol, TFT's ACTH, CBG, TBG and gonadotrophins will be measured during the same venepuncture using serum samples. SPSS v27 and GraphPad Prism v9.3.1 will be used for analysis and illustrations. Thirty-five patients will be included, within ACC with mitotane, adrenal neoplasm or pregnant groups. Data will be tested for normality, described as Mean± SD, compared using paired sample t-test with 5% p-value for significance and 95% confidence interval (CI).

研究组 & 干预措施
ACC on mitotane
Individuals in this group were under care by the Endocrinology Team with a diagnosis of an ACC and on mitotane. These individuals were further divided into 3 groups, depending on whether they had a mitotane plasma concentration, within (14-20mg/L), above or below the therapeutic concentration range.
干预措施: Mitotane (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Examine the effect of mitotane therapy on serum thyroid and cortisol binding proteins in patients with ACC
时间窗: April 2019-June 2020
The primary objective of this project is to determine the effects of mitotane therapy on serum thyroid binding and cortisol binding protein concentrations in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma and compare concentrations of the same binding proteins in patients with adrenal neoplasms not on treatment with mitotane and to a cohort of pregnant women.
