Filter by:The purpose of this study is to follow and collect additional medical and developmental information on children after histrelin subcutaneous implant therapy is discontinued.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the timing of the onset of puberty may be affected by FSH-regulatory peptides. We will determine how these peptides relate to FSH production in prepubertal and pubertal children by comparing the regulation of FSH control in children with precocious (early) puberty and delayed puberty. In this pilot study, we will stimulate the pubertal axis using an agonist of GnRH to determine the pubertal response of activin-A, inhibin-A and -B and follistatin. To determine baseline FSH secretion and FSH-regulatory peptide tone, we will block GnRH with a specific antagonist. These studies should lead to a better understanding of the role of FSH in controlling the onset of puberty and the pathogenesis of pubertal disorders.
The purpose of this extension study is to determine if leuprolide acetate (11.25 mg and 30 mg) is safe in treating children with Central Precocious Puberty over a longer period of time (36 months).
The purpose of this study is to determine if Lupron (leuprolide acetate) is safe and effective in treating children with Central Precocious Puberty (CPP), and to assess long term effects of leuprolide acetate treatment after therapy is discontinued.
The purpose of this study is to determine if 11.25 and 30 mg formulations of leuprolide are effective in treating children with Central Precocious Puberty (CPP).
Children with premature pubarche will have radiological and radial artery tonometry evidence of cardiovascular morbidity at diagnosis when compared to matched controls.
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of triptorelin 11.25 mg pamoate in the delay of premature onset of puberty in girls less than 9 years and boys less than 10 years. This is measured by assessing the proportion of children who have a suppressed Luteinizing Hormone (LH) response to Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) test performed 3 months after injection with triptorelin 11.25 mg.
The aims of this study are: 1) to identify genes that play a role in human pubertal development and reproduction, 2) to characterize the phenotypic spectrum of patients with these gene defects, and 3) to discern the mode of inheritance for disorders caused by these gene defects. We are specifically interested in genes that cause Kallmann syndrome, idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH), precocious (early) puberty, and delayed puberty. Individuals do not have to travel to Boston to participate in this study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness and pharmacokinetics of a study drug called Faslodex (fulvestrant) in the treatment of progressive precocious puberty (PPP) (early puberty) in girls with McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS)
The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether bicalutamide given in combination with anastrozole once daily for 12 months is effective in treating testotoxicosis in boys. Testotoxicosis is a condition that causes early puberty in boys including growth in height, and development of muscles and sexual organs .
