Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the relevance of short-term calcimimetics treatment in primary hyperparathyroidism for decision of parathyroid surgery ;Secondary Objective: •To assess the feasibility of the study design •To assess if the ionized calcium level will be normalized during four weeks of treatment with Mimpara 30 mgx1 •To assess the safety during Mimpara treatment •To compare changes in quality of life, psychological health, cognitive function and muscle strength between patients with PHPT randomized to treatment with Mimpara (M+) or not (M-) preoperatively •To compare changes in quality of life, psychological health, cognitive function and muscle strength during treatment with Mimpara (M+) with postoperative changes ;Primary end point(s): •If four weeks of treatment with Mimpara will normalize hypercalcemia in patients with PHPT ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): •Changes in quality of life in view of the physical symptoms and well-being, evaluated with two validated forms (QLQ-C30 and the Positive States of Mind (PSOM)) during Mimpara treatment and postoperatively •Depression; evaluated with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) scale during Mimpara treatment and postoperatively •Muscle strength; repeated ascent from a chair, repetitive stand up on tiptoes (measures the number which can be carried out) and thigh and hand strength evaluated by simple dynamometric apparatus during Mimpara treatment and postoperatively •AE/SAE recording and safety blood samples; serum levels of (p)-PTH, serum(s)-ionized serum calcium, p-total calcium, p-albumin, p-creatinine, p-phosphate, s-25-OH-D and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) during Mimpara treatment and postoperatively ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4, 6 weeks, 6 months | — |
