A 38 week dosing trial of lonapegsomatropin, a long-acting growth hormone product, administered once-a-week versus placebo-control. A daily somatropin product arm is also included to assist clinical judgement on the trial results. Approximately 240 adults (males and females) with growth hormone deficiency will be included. Randomization will occur in a 1:1:1 ratio (lonapegsomatropin : placebo : daily somatropin product). This is a global trial that will be conducted in, but not limited to, the United States, Europe, and Asia.
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-labeled, positive controlled phase 2&3 combined study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly Y-shape pegylated somatropin, compared to daily somatropin (Norditropin®), in prepubertal, treatment-naive children with growth hormone deficiency.
Human growth hormone (hGH) provocation test is an essential tool to assess growth hormone deficiency in children and young adults. It is important to have a robust and reliable method to determine the hGH peak of stimulation. This work aimed to compare three common automated immunoassays for hGH measurements and to assess whether there are still result-related differences influencing clinical decision.
This study will compare two strengths of the new long-acting growth hormone somapacitan. The aim of this study is to test if both strengths are taken up in the blood in the same way. During three separate dosing visits participants will get a total of 3 injections of the study medicine. Somapacitan is not yet approved and therefore cannot be prescribed by a doctor outside of this study. The study duration is between 10 and 15 weeks. Participants will have 17 visits with the study doctor. Three visits will each comprise 6 in-house days with overnight stays. In total, at least 15 overnight stays at the clinic. There will be blood samplings during the study. Participants must come to the clinic regularly for these blood samplings. People who have already received growth hormones in the past or who are growth hormone deficient cannot be in the study. People cannot be in the study if the study doctor thinks that there are risks for their health. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.
Treatment of children with growth failure due to growth hormone deficiency (GHD). Primary • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of weekly MOD-4023 administration compared to daily Genotropin® administration in Japanese pre-pubertal children with GHD. Secondary • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) profiles of three different doses of MOD-4023 in Japanese pre-pubertal children with GHD.
This is an open label randomized 24 week crossover trial assessing the treatment burden of a weekly growth hormone injection regimen (somatrogon) compared to a daily growth hormone injection regimen (Genotropin). Approximately 90 children with growth hormone deficiency who have been stable on treatment with daily Genotropin will be enrolled.
Data about the impact of growth hormone treatment on insulin sensitivity in children are quite controversial, due to the different surrogate indexes that have been used, like Homa-IR, QUICKI, ISI-Matsuda or adipokine levels. The investigators aimed to evaluate insulin sensitivity through the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, considered the gold standard technique, in children affected by growth hormone deficiency and to compare the M-value with the most commonly used surrogate indexes of insulin sensitivity.
This is a randomized, open-label, active controlled, Phase 2 study designed to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of weekly and semi-monthly doses of GX-H9 in the treatment of Paediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency (PGHD) as compared to the standard of care daily rhGH treatment.
The purpose of this study was to validate the growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) plus arginine (GHRH+arg) stimulation test and it´s cut-off limits for diagnosis of adult growth hormone deficiency using the growth hormone (GH) Immulite 2000 Xpi assay calibrated against the IS 98/574 from the World Health Organization. A specific aim was to study the effect of gender and age on the peak GH response in the GHRH+arg test
