Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Month 12 (at the end of previous study) to 156 Yes
Secondary Height Velocity Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age Height velocity is the yearly height gain. Height velocity SDS is calculated as following formula; Height velocity SDS = (height velocity - mean) / standard deviation,
where mean and standard deviation were based on standard Japanese values of the participants age and gender.
The scores were centred around zero. Negative score indicated a participant was smaller for their age/gender.
Month 12 (at the end of previous study) to 156 No
Secondary Height Velocity Height velocity is the yearly height gain Month 12 (at the end of previous study) to 156 No
Secondary Height SDS for Chronological Age Height SDS is calculated as following formula; Height SDS = (height - mean) / standard deviation,
where mean and standard deviation were based on standard Japanese values on the participant age and gender.
The scores were centred around zero. Negative score indicated a participant was smaller for their age/gender.
Month 12 (at the end of previous study) to 156 No
Secondary Height Velocity SDS for Bone Age To measure bone age, X-ray images of the left hand were centrally assessed by an independent specialist using the Tanner-Whitehouse 2 (RUS) method standardized for Japanese children.
Height velocity is the yearly height gain. Height velocity SDS for bone age is calculated as following formula; Height velocity SDS = (height velocity - mean) / standard deviation,
where mean and standard deviation were based on standard Japanese values corresponding to bone age and gender.
The scores were centred around zero. Negative score indicated a participant was smaller for their age/gender.
