Brief Summary:
This will be a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open-label trial with women harboring microprolactinomas and treatment naïve. The sample will be added consecutively and randomized into 2 unblinded groups: the high dosage group will receive a high cabergoline (CAB) dose for a period of \~6 months vs the standard dosage group, which will use the lowest needed dose of CAB to achieve normoprolactinemia for 2 years. The primary outcome will be remission rate.
Detailed Description:
Prolactinoma is the most common subtype of pituitary adenoma, and dopamine agonists are the gold standard for treatment, primarily CAB. The SPARAGMOS trial will be an interventional, randomized, open-label, multicenter study utilizing a high dose of CAB for \~6 months to suppress prolactin levels, with the hypothetical goal of achieving greater tumor apoptosis and remission rates. The control group will receive CAB for two years at the lowest dose necessary to achieve normoprolactinemia, as per current guidelines. Of note, for both groups, the final cumulative dose will be similar. The findings from this trial have the potential to inform and redefine future therapeutic strategies for microprolactinoma.
