This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests a special PET scan (11C-Metomidate) to better identify adrenal tumors that cause high blood pressure and can be cured with surgery. About 100 adults with suspected adrenal-related hypertension will receive the scan, which is non-invasive and may replace the current difficult vein-sampling procedure. The goal is to accurately find patients who can be cured by removing the tumor.

Inclusion Criteria: * For patients with primary aldosteronism (PA\_CURE 2 / PA\_MTO EH): 1. Confirmed diagnosis of primary aldosteronism, as defined in Endocrine Society Guidelines 2016, with positive confirmatory test (post-salt loading aldosterone \>140pmol/L); or hypokalemia with undetectable renin levels and aldosterone \>550pmol/L; or likely primary aldosteronism / low-renin hypertension (inappropriate aldosterone levels and suppressed renin levels) 2. Keen for surgical treatment if shown to have unilateral adrenal disease. * For patients with suspected adrenal tumors (PA\_MTO AT) 1. All patients with suspected adrenal tumors based on imaging and clinical suspicion. Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to provide written informed consent. * Chronic renal failure of Stage 3b or greater severity, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 45ml/min/1.73m2 using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula. (only applicable for PA\_CURE 2 / PA\_MTO EH) * Severe or terminal medical condition(s) that in the view of the investigator prohibits participation in the study or interferes with possible treatment or health-related quality of life, e.g. cancer, end-stage liver disease, end stage renal failure (only applicable for PA\_CURE 2 / PA\_MTO EH) * Contraindications to isotope scanning (e.g. Female patients who are pregnant (self-declared or via positive pregnancy test), intending to become pregnant (within 3 months of scan) or breastfeeding) or CT Scan, which includes but not limited to waist circumference \>140cm, morbid obesity or claustrophobia (limiting entry in CT scanner) * Contraindication to ingestion of corticosteroids (e.g. poorly controlled diabetes, HbA1C \>13%)
