Late Endocrine and Metabolic Consequences After Childhood Brain Tumor Treatment

NCT07457255 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This interventional study evaluates the late endocrine and metabolic consequences of treatment of primary brain tumors in childhood. Childhood brain tumor survivors are at increased risk of developing long-term complications such as hormonal deficiencies, obesity, impaired growth, dyslipidemia, and other metabolic disorders, which may significantly affect long-term health and quality of life.

The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence and severity of endocrine and metabolic late effects in patients treated for brain tumors during childhood in Slovenia, and to identify associations with tumor localization, treatment modality, and physical performance.

Participants undergo structured clinical follow-up examinations and targeted endocrine and metabolic assessments according to the study protocol. The results of this study may help identify individuals at increased risk and improve long-term follow-up strategies, prevention, and management of late treatment-related complications.

Endocrine and Metabolic Late Effects Assessment

Participants undergo a structured endocrine and metabolic follow-up assessment after childhood brain tumor treatment. The intervention includes clinical examination, anthropometric measurements (height, weight, BMI), laboratory endocrine testing (pituitary and thyroid function, adrenal axis, gonadal hormones), metabolic testing (glucose and lipid profile), and evaluation of physical competence. The aim is to identify late endocrine and metabolic complications and assess their association with tumor location and previous treatment modalities.
