Management of Nonpregnant Women with Elevated Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is useful in evaluating and monitoring early pregnancy as well as trophoblastic disease. Here we describe the management of women with elevated serum human chorionic gonadotropin in a case of a 51-year-old female who was unsuccessfully treated for ectopic pregnancy. She was subsequently diagnosed with pituitary hCG production, which should be considered as dif...
متن کاملSingle‐dose pharmacokinetic study comparing the pharmacokinetics of recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin in healthy Japanese and Caucasian women and recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin and urinary human chorionic gonadotropin in healthy Japanese women
Purpose Recombinant hCG (r-hCG) was approved in Japan in 2016. As a prerequisite for a Phase III study in Japan related to this approval, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of r-hCG was investigated. Methods An open-label, partly randomized, single-center, single-dose, group-comparison, Phase I PK-bridging study was done that compared a single 250 μg dose of r-hCG with a single 5000 IU dose of ...
متن کاملHuman Chorionic Gonadotropin
A highly active preparation of human chorionic gonadotropin has been obtained by simple methods of column chromatography on diethylaminoethyl Sephadex and Sephadex G-100. The preparation appeared homogeneous by disc and immunoelectrophoresis, ultracentrifugation, and end group analysis. It assayed at 12,000 i.u. per mg by the rat prostrate gland and accessory sex organ method. The ~20,~ value w...
متن کاملPersistent low concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin in a nonpregnant woman.
A 48-year-old woman presented for radio-iodine ablation therapy 3 months after undergoing a complete thyroidectomy performed for compressive goiter symptoms. The patient’s medical history included stage-3 follicular variant papillary thyroid cancer with no nodal involvement and no metastatic disease. A 6.5-cm papillary carcinoma had been identified and removed surgically. Despite this surgical ...
متن کاملBeta-Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (βHCG) Levels in Pre-eclamptic and Normotensive Pregnant Women
Background: Pre-eclampsia along with bleeding and infection constitute a triad that is a major cause of maternal mortality. Many factors have been recognized which can help us to determine the severity of the disease and early diagnosis of it. Since throphoblastic disorder is one of the etiological causes of pre-eclampsia, we decided to measure the level of β-hCG as a marker of detecting the ac...
