NCT ID NCT07299838
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new drug, palopegteriparatide, in 90 adults with chronic hypoparathyroidism. The goal was to see if the drug could help patients stop taking activated vitamin D and calcium supplements for at least four weeks. Researchers tracked how long it took to become supplement-free and monitored safety. The study was completed in Greece and provides real-world evidence on this treatment.
