|
Pituitary Adenoma |
| Study Type: | Observational |
| Study Design: | Family-Based, Prospective |
| Official Title: | Prevalence of Pituitary Incidentaloma in Relatives of Patients With Pituitary Adenoma |
cell lines are established for future genetic analysis
| Estimated Enrollment: | 600 |
| Study Start Date: | January 2003 |
| Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
The purpose of the family study is to investigate the genetic basis for the development of pituitary tumors by assessing the prevalence of pituitary tumors in relatives of probands with the disease as compared to the prevalence in unrelated spouses sharing a similar environment.
