About this study

OBJECTIVES:

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of long term recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I in children with hyperinsulinism.

Read the detailed description

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, cross-over study.

Patients are randomized to receive recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or placebo subcutaneously twice daily for 4 weeks. After a 2 week washout period, patients are crossed over to the other regimen for an additional 4 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing insulin-like growth factor I in people with Hyperinsulinism, run by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Mar 2015.
