Trial Outcomes & Findings for Assess Vitamin D Levels in Those With & Without Thyroid Cancer (NCT NCT00719615)

NCT ID: NCT00719615

Last Updated: 2023-10-16

Results Overview

We evaluated serum calcium,creatinine,albumin,and 25-hydroxyvitaminD(25-OH-D)in 42 thyroid nodule, 45 thyroid cancer in remission, \& 24 active thyroid cancer patients. We also determined the number and percent of participants in each group that had vitamin D deficiency, defined as 25-OH-D \< 30 ng/ml.

Participant Flow

Individuals (at University of Nebraska Medical Center)were selected from a thyroid tumor and cancer collaborative registry (TCCR), database \& biospecimen bank, started March 2008. We achieved a sample size of 111 subjects with 24 patients with active thyroid cancer, 45 patients with thyroid cancer in remission and 42 patients with thyroid nodules.

Individuals who had agreed to participate in the TCCR and who had also given a blood sample were included in sequential order.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Within 12 months of enrollment in thyroid cancer collaborative registry (TCCR) database

Population: This study is a pilot study to provide preliminary data. Per protocol, we accrued 37% of the sample size needed for a fully powered study. Using the outcome "the proportion of persons with "vitamin D deficiency", a sample size of 160 subjects (64 nodule, 64 remission, and 32 active) would achieve an 80% power to detect an effect size of 0.25.

We evaluated serum calcium,creatinine,albumin,and 25-hydroxyvitaminD(25-OH-D)in 42 thyroid nodule, 45 thyroid cancer in remission, \& 24 active thyroid cancer patients. We also determined the number and percent of participants in each group that had vitamin D deficiency, defined as 25-OH-D \< 30 ng/ml.
