Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To prospectively study the efficacy and safety of the Cook County Health (CCH) methimazole (MMI) dosing algorithm in the setting of new onset Graves' disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To conduct a prospective observational study in 60 patients with newly diagnosed Graves' disease who are either methimazole naive or who have been initiated on MMI within previous 4-6 weeks per CCH algorithm and assess for efficacy and safety of MMI dosing administered. Study group size is based on 90% power and projected efficacy of 70% patients reaching target.
