An observational study in Cushing s Syndrome and Glucocorticoid Effect, sponsored by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris. Not yet recruiting at 3 sites in France. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-05.
Sponsored by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris · Observational
Main goal: Looking for biological markers (molecular and biochemical) that predict glucocorticoid complications using blood and urine samples.
Evaluation criterion: statistical association between biological markers and the occurrence of glucocorticoid complications.
Glucocorticoid-related complications are collected in a research program called "CDE.AI" (common data elements, artificial intelligence). CDE.AI aims at processing unstructured medical reports with natural language processing tools to fill in automatically forms reporting the outcome of patients with glucoocorticoid excess.
CDE.AI is initially aiming to build a form auto-fill tool using automatic language processing from unstructured medical reports, applied to monitoring the follow-up of rare diseases in France, with a specific focus on glucocorticoid complications (Glucocorticoids Complications-Core Data Elements, GC-CDE). Data from 10,000 patients will be processed. French regulations clearance was obtained for this part of the project, which falls under the reuse of health data.
The second part of the project aims to measure biomarkers in a sub-population of 300 patients to identify biomarkers associated with glucocorticoid complications and collect patient-reported outcomes, which constitutes research involving humans.
CDE.AI_patients is an ancillary part of the CDE.AI project that will look for biological markers (molecular and biochemical) associated with glucocorticoid-related complications. Patients will also fill in a form reflecting their perception of their disease, and their opinion on the use of AI-based tools to extract their clinical data. This prospective inclusion targets 300 patients.
123 studies on the registry are indexed under Cushing Syndrome; 42 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 300 is above the median of 121 across 63 observational studies indexed under Cushing Syndrome.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Patients with glucocorticoid excess (endogenous or exogenous)
biomarkers associated with glucocorticoid-excess complications
Association of molecular (whole blood transcriptome, DNA methylome, and DNA variants) and biochemical (mass spectrometry profiles from blood and urine) markers associated with glucocorticoid-induced complications
Time frame: Single-spot assay (at inclusion) for biological samples.
Plan to share: Yes — Individual participant data (IPD) that underlie results in publication could be shared. IPD detailed in the protocol of a planned metaanalysis could be shared
Supporting information: Study protocol
Time frame: Two years after the last publication
Access criteria: Data sharing must be accepted by the sponsor and the PI based on a scientific project and scientific involvement of the PI team. Collaboration will be fostered. Data sharing must respect the agreements made with funders. Teams wishing obtain IPD must meet the sponsor and IP team to present scientific (and commercial) purpose, IPD needed, format of data transmission, and timeframe. Technical feasibility and financial support will be discussed before mandatory contractual agreement. Processing of shared data must comply with European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
