About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Dose and Frequency Finding Study of MOD-4023 in Growth Hormone Deficient Adults (GHDA)

This study aims to assess the safety, tolerability and Pharmacokinetics/ Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) profile of three doses of MOD-4023 on a weekly regime and one dose on an every-other-week regime administered for a period of 4 weeks in Growth Hormone Deficient Adult (GHDA) patients who previously were on a stable r-hGH treatment. An additional extension period of 16 weeks once-weekly administration of MOD-4023 aims to confirm the dose selection for future trials.

Read the detailed description

The study is a phase II, randomized, open-label, parallel, 4 active treatment arms study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK/PD profile of MOD-4023 in pre-treated, normalized, GHD adults.

The study is conducted in 2 stages. Stage I is a 4-week treatment period with 4 different dose levels/dosing regimens.

Stage II is a 16-week treatment-extension period in which all the patients will start with the same dose (derived from stage I) and will be dose titrated to maintain IGF-1 levels within the normal range.

What is being measured

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

  1. 1. Safety and Tolerability

    Adverse events (AE's), vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), laboratory tests, local reaction

    Measured: Following 4 weeks of MOD-4023 treatment

  2. Maintenance of normal Insulin-like-Growth-Factor-1 (IGF-1)levels in GHDA

    The primary efficacy endpoint will be the mean time interval of IGF-I levels that lay within ±1.5 SDS after the last dose administration during stage I (4w treatment) expressed in hours.

    Measured: Following 4 weeks MOD-4023 treatment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change of IGF-I levels over time expressed in absolute and SDS values

    Measured: Following 4 and 16 weeks of MOD-4023 treatment

  2. Change of IGFBP-3 over time expressed in absolute values

    Measured: Following 4 and 16 weeks of MOD-4023 treatment

  3. Number of IGF-1 normalized patients in stage II

    Number of patients achieving normalization of IGF-1 levels during dose titration 16-week treatment extension

    Measured: Following 16 weeks of MOD-4023 treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MOD-4023 in people with Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by OPKO Health, Inc. at 15 sites in 6 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 13 inclusion and 19 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 8 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in Hungary, Slovakia, Czechia, Israel, Serbia and 1 more country. 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 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1. Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Following 4 weeks of MOD-4023 treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Oct 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
