It has been suggested that the threshold of 1 micro g/l of GH nadir after glucose load for definition of controlled acromegalic disease proposed in the 2000 consensus statement should be lowered to 0.30. We evaluated these two cut-off values in comparison with IGF-I, ALS and IGFBP-3 in a group of acromegalic patients. With the aim of simplifying the follow-up protocol in these patients we also tested if one single sample taken after glucose load could replace the nadir value.
