About this study

Official title: A Double Blind Parallel Group Randomised Multiple Dose Study To Evaluate The Pharmacodynamic Response And Safety Of PHA-794428 In Adult Growth Hormone Deficient Patients

The purpose of this study is to explore the safety, toleration and dose response of PHA-794428 after multiple weekly injections in male and female growth hormone deficient patients.

Read the detailed description

The study terminated on 10-Dec-2007. Pfizer's decision to terminate the program was due to cases of injection-site lipoatrophy that were reported in the clinical Phase 2 studies after a single injection of PHA 794428.

Being tested
PHA-794428
Medical subject headings
Dwarfism, Pituitary

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PHA-794428Drug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Responder status at visits 9 (week 4) and 14 (week 7), where responder is defined as a patient who has achieved an IGF-1 level above the mid-point of the age-related normal range.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in PD and glycemic control

    Measured: At weeks 4 and 7

  2. Change in PK concentrations.

  3. ALT, AST greater than 3.0 times ULN at any visit

  4. Anti-hGH and anti PHA-794428 antibody production

  5. Change in body weight

    Measured: At week 4 and follow-up

  6. Injection site reactions

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PHA-794428 in people with Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by Pfizer at 35 sites in 12 countries.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 35 sites in Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, France and 7 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 was stopped early (reason given: See termination reason in detailed description.). Results are not available in the source record.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Responder status at visits 9 (week 4) and 14 (week 7), where responder is defined as a patient who has achieved an IGF-1 level above the mid-point of the age-related normal range.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00308464, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 May 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
