Testing the Use of SAGIT for Classification of Patients With Acromegaly in Clinical Practice
The purpose of this pilot study is to test SAGIT (Signs and symptoms - Associated
comorbidities - GH concentration level - IGF-1 - Tumour). SAGIT is a Clinician-Reported
Outcomes (ClinROs) tool developed to describe patients with acromegaly. This study will
determine the potential use of a finalised operational version for patient classification in
clinical practice and studies.
In addition, this study intends to carry out a qualitative evaluation of the acceptability of
SAGIT by the practicing endocrinologist in terms of relevance, ease of use, applicability and
usefulness of the tool in practice.
