Study population: SGA Subjects treated or untreated with growth hormone

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with SGA treated with growth hormone in one of the following Genotropin studies (89-041, 89-070/071, 90-079, 90-080/98-8122-011) for at least 3 years and after having stopped GH treatment for 5-10 years

About this study

Official title: Long-Term Metabolic Risk In Small for Gestational Age (SGA) Patients After Growth Hormone Treatment Compared To Matched, Untreated Controls

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that insulin sensitivity is not different between growth hormone - treated subjects who are small for gestational age (SGA) and an SGA cohort of subjects matched by gender and body mass index (BMI) who are not treated with growth hormone (GH) and who remain short at final height.

What is being measured

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

  1. To demonstrate, that the Insulin Sensitivity Index is not different between GH treated SGA and SGA cohort matched by gender and BMI and not treated with GH that remained short at final height

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To demonstrate that blood pressure and lipid profile are not different between GH treated SGA subjects and an SGA cohort matched by gender and BMI and not treated with GH

    Measured: 90 days

  2. To demonstrate that the ISI is not different between GH treated SGA subjects and an SGA cohort matched by gender and BMI and not treated with GH that achieved normal final height

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infant, Small for Gestational Age, run by Pfizer.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2015.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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To demonstrate, that the Insulin Sensitivity Index is not different between GH treated SGA and SGA cohort matched by gender and BMI and not treated with GH that remained short at final height (time frame: 90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 22 Apr 2015.
