What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects Having Maintained Their Injection Interval Schedule of Six Weeks or Increased Their Injection Interval to Eight Weeks Whilst Keeping Their Normalised Insulin Growth Factor (IGF-1) Levels (Age and Sex Adjusted)

    A subject was responder if he maintained his injection interval schedule of 6 weeks or increased his injection interval to eight weeks whilst keeping his normalised IGF-1 level (age and sex adjusted) at the end of the study (Week 48)

    Measured: At week 48 (End of Study)

Secondary outcomes (14)

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Normalised IGF-1 Levels (Age and Sex Adjusted)

    The criterion for a subject is satisfied if he has a normalised IGF-1 level (age and sex adjusted) at week 24.

    Measured: At week 24

  2. Percentage of Subjects Having Maintained an Injection Interval of Six Weeks or Increasing Their Injection Interval to Eight Weeks

    The criterion for a subject is satisfied if he maintained an injection interval of six weeks or increasing his injection interval to eight weeks during Phase 2 of the study.

    Measured: During phase 2 of the study (up to week 48)

  3. Percentage of Subjects Who Extend Their Injection Interval to Eight Weeks During Phase 2 of the Study, Whilst Maintaining Normalised IGF-1 Levels

    The criterion for a subject is satisfied if he extended his injection interval to eight weeks during Phase 2 of the study, whilst maintaining normalised IGF-1 levels at Week 48.

    Measured: At week 48

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in IGF-1 Values [Expressed as % of Upper Limit of Normal (ULN)], Overall and by Injection Interval

    IGF-1 change from Baseline to Week 48 = Mean IGF-1 level at Week 48 - Mean IGF-1 level at Baseline

    Measured: Baseline (visit 1) and week 48

  5. Treatment Group (A, B or C) Mean Baseline IGF-1 Levels (Expressed as % of ULN) in Subjects Who Maintained Normalised IGF-1 Values at Week 48. Comparisons Will be Made as Follows: A Versus B, A Versus C, A Versus (B+C) and B Versus C

    Measured: Baseline (visit 1)

  6. Mean Baseline IGF-1 Levels (Expressed as % of ULN) in All Groups (A, B and C) Versus Mean Baseline IGF-1 Levels (Expressed as % of ULN) in Subjects With Uncontrolled IGF-1 Levels at Week 24

    Measured: Baseline (visit 1)

  7. Symptoms of Acromegaly (Headache, Excessive Perspiration, Fatigue, Soft Tissue Swelling and Arthralgia)

    Acromegaly symptoms were assessed by the patients using the Patient Assessed Acromegaly Symptom Questionnaire (PASQ) scale ranging from 0 (No symptoms) to 8 (Severe, incapacitating symptoms).

    Measured: At baseline, week 24 and week 48

  8. Mean Changes From Baseline in Quality of Life Scores (AcroQoL)

    AcroQoL score groups 22 components: Eight physical, Seven psychological appearance and Seven psychological personal relations, adjusted to a scale of 100, where a score of 100 corresponds to the best possible QoL and 0 to the worst.

    Measured: At weeks 24 and 48

  9. Mean Changes From Baseline in Quality of Life Scores (SF-36)

    Short Form-36 questionnaire (SF-36) score comprises eight components: Physical function, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health on a scale of 100, where a score of 100 corresponds to the best possible QoL and 0 to the worst.

    Measured: At weeks 24 and 48

  10. Percentage of Subjects With Normalized IGF-1 Levels (Age and Sex Adjusted), Without Any Worsening of the AcroQoL Change Score Between Inclusion and Week 48

    The criterion for a subject is satisfied if he had a IGF-1 level (age and sex adjusted) without any worsening of the AcroQoL change score between Inclusion and Week 48.

    Measured: At week 48 (End of Study)

  11. Correlation Between the Changes From Baseline in Quality of Life (AcroQoL) With the Corresponding Changes in IGF-1 Level (Expressed as % of ULN) at Each Visit

    AcroQoL change from Baseline to Week 24 (48) = AcroQoL at Week 24 (48) - AcroQoL at Baseline.

    IGF-1 change from Baseline to Week 24 (48) = IGF-1 at Week 24 (48) - IGF-1 at Baseline.

    Correlation presented is a Spearman correlation (non parametric).

    Measured: At weeks 24 and 48

  12. Serum Growth Hormone (GH) Levels

    Measured: At Baseline, week 24 and week 48

  13. Percentage of Subjects With GH Level Less Than or Equal to 2.5 ng/mL

    Measured: At weeks 24 and 48

  14. Subject Treatment Schedule Preference

    At week 24, the preference assessed between Octreotide Long Acting Repeatable intramuscular injection (Oct-LAR IM) every 4 weeks and Lanreotide Autogel 120 mg subcutaneous injection (SC) every 6 weeks.

    At week 48, the preference is assessed between Oct-LAR IM every 4 weeks and Lanreotide Autogel 120 mg SC either injected every 4, 6 or 8 weeks (as injected during Phase II of the study).

    Measured: At weeks 24 and 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lanreotide Autogel 120 mg in people with Acromegaly, run by Ipsen at 44 sites in 14 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 5 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 44 sites in France, Greece, Denmark, Poland, South Korea and 9 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Dec 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Subjects Having Maintained Their Injection Interval Schedule of Six Weeks or Increased Their Injection Interval to Eight Weeks Whilst Keeping Their Normalised Insulin Growth Factor (IGF-1) Levels (Age and Sex Adjusted) (time frame: At week 48 (End of Study)). 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 NCT00701363.

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 29 Jan 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
