Predictive model of surgical remission in acromegaly: age, presurgical GH levels and Knosp grade as the best predictors of surgical remission

M. Araujo-Castro et al.

Summary: The study developed a predictive model for surgical remission in acromegaly, identifying associations between age, GH levels, Knosp classification, and pituitary adenoma diameter with surgical remission. The model with the best diagnostic accuracy combined age, Knosp classification, and presurgical GH levels, demonstrating a sensitivity of 93.8% and a specificity of 75.0%.

Multicenter, Observational Study of Lanreotide Autogel for the Treatment of Patients with Acromegaly in Routine Clinical Practice in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

Sylvere Stoermann et al.

Summary: This non-interventional study examined the long-term treatment response to lanreotide autogel in adult patients with acromegaly, with results showing higher rates of biochemical control at 12 months, particularly in certain subgroups. The overall tolerability of treatment with lanreotide autogel was good, with no new safety signals observed.

Predictors of postoperative biochemical remission in acromegaly

Shun Yao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the clinical characteristics and predictors of biochemical remission after surgery for acromegaly using the China Acromegaly Patient Association (CAPA) database. The results showed that higher preoperative GH levels, large tumor size, and greater tumor invasiveness are associated with a lower likelihood of biochemical remission at 3 months after surgery, while preoperative medical therapy increases the chance of remission.

Summary: This paper proposes including the clinico-pathologic phenotype in the therapeutic algorithm for acromegaly, utilizing biomarkers for personalized medicine to accelerate the implementation of precision medicine. Additionally, the development, validation, and clinical use of a pasireotide acute test is suggested to identify patients responsive to pasireotide LAR.

Clinical and Radiological Predictors of Biochemical Response to First-Line Treatment With Somatostatin Receptor Ligands in Acromegaly: A Real-Life Perspective

Federica Nista et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that age, IGF-1 levels, and tumor T2-weighted signal are significant predictors of biochemical response to fg-SRL treatment in naive acromegaly patients. Younger age, lower IGF-1 levels, and absence of T2-hypointense signal in the tumor were associated with poorer treatment outcomes. These factors should be taken into consideration for individualized treatment of acromegaly patients.

T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging as a novel predictor of surgical remission in newly diagnosed pituitary macroadenomas presenting as acromegaly

Enes Akkaya et al.

Summary: The signal intensity in T2-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging can predict postoperative results in acromegaly patients with macroadenoma. The surgical remission rates were significantly lower in the T2-hyperintense group compared to the T2-hypointense and T2-isointense groups in newly diagnosed acromegaly patients. Preoperative T2-intensity images may predict the probability of post-surgical remission in patients with newly diagnosed acromegaly.

Maryam Dehghani et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between pathology and remission outcomes in acromegaly patients. The results showed that pathological subtypes of pituitary adenomas do not play a predictive role in estimating remission outcomes, with cavernous sinus invasion and one-day postoperative GH levels being the strongest predictors for biochemical remission.
