About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Multi-center, Randomized, Comparative, Parallel, Open, Dose Finding Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety After 26 Week-treatment of Eutropin Plus (SR-hGH) Compared to Eutropin Inj. in Pre-pubertal Children With Idiopathic Short Stature

The purpose of this study is to assess dosing requirements and establish the efficacy of SR-hGH in idiopathic short stature patients (ISS). This phase II study is designed as multi-center, randomized, active comparator-controlled, parallel, open-label.

45 patients were randomized to three arms with 1:1:1 ratio, two arms of Sr-hGH and one of daily hGH. Two doses of Sr-hGH were administered, which are 0.5 and 0.7mg/kg/week. And the other arm received daily hGH at 0.37 mg/kg/week.

Patients in Sr-hGH groups injected on a specific day of the every week for 26 weeks. And patients randomized to daily hGH group injected for 6 days a week.

Patients visited study centers five times, firstly at screening (Visit 1), at randomization (Visit 2), after 13th dosing (Visit 3), after 26th dosing (Visit 4), and finally for follow-up (Visit5).

Being tested
human growth hormone self-injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing human growth hormone self-injection in people with Establishing Dose of Sr-hGH in ISS Patients, run by LG Life Sciences at 1 site in South Korea.

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 24 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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?

Change from baseline in height velocity at Week 26, cm/year (time frame: Week 0-26). 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 24 Mar 2016.
