Shanghai Adrenal Disease Cohort

Shanghai Clinical Cohort - Adrenal Disease

Observational Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine · NCT07191951

This project enrolls adults with adrenal diseases to collect clinical, imaging, and lab data and samples to see if better tests, diagnoses, and treatments can be developed.

What this trial studies

This observational cohort will enroll adults (18–75) diagnosed with adrenal conditions such as primary aldosteronism, Cushing's syndrome, pheochromocytoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Participants will receive standard-of-care treatment (surgery, radiotherapy, and/or medications) while researchers collect hormone assays, imaging, pathology, and molecular data and track clinical outcomes over time. The study aims to address variability in hormone testing, improve localization on imaging, clarify tumor molecular features, and identify prognostic markers from integrated datasets. Results are intended to inform subtype definitions, diagnostic criteria, and more personalized prevention and treatment strategies for adrenal diseases.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults aged 18–75 with a confirmed adrenal diagnosis (e.g., aldosteronism, Cushing's syndrome, pheochromocytoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, or congenital adrenal hyperplasia) who can give informed consent and comply with study procedures.

Not a fit: People without adrenal disease, those outside the 18–75 age range, those unwilling to consent, or patients with medical or psychological conditions that preclude participation are unlikely to receive direct benefit from this cohort.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the cohort could enable more accurate diagnoses, clearer tumor characterization, and more personalized treatment choices that improve patient outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: Prior observational and molecular studies of specific adrenal conditions have produced useful subtype and diagnostic insights, but comprehensive integrated cohorts combining clinical, imaging, and molecular data across adrenal diseases are still relatively limited.
