Scientists hunt for better ways to spot dangerous parathyroid tumors

NCT ID NCT03039439

Summary

This study aims to improve the diagnosis of different types of parathyroid tumors by analyzing stored tumor tissue and blood samples from past patients. Researchers will look for specific markers in the tissue to help doctors more accurately tell apart benign, atypical, and cancerous tumors. The goal is to help patients get the right diagnosis and appropriate treatment sooner, and to identify potential targets for future therapies.
