What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Height Standard Deviation Score for Chronological Age (ΔHtSDSCA)

    Change in Height Standard Deviation Score for Chronological Age (ΔHtSDSCA) from Baseline to 52 weeks;ΔHtSDSCA=(height Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx (Yx refers to the height value at particular timepoint x)

    Measured: Baseline,52 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in Annualized Height Velocity

    Annualized Height Velocity=12×(Height Yx - Height at Baseline)/(Date of Yx - Date of Baseline) (Yx refers to the height value at particular timepoint x)

    Measured: Baseline,52 weeks

  2. Change in Bone Maturation

    Bone Maturation=(BA Yx-BA at Baseline)/(Date of Yx - Date of Baseline) (Yx refers to the BA value at particular timepoint x)

    Measured: Baseline,52 weeks

  3. Change in IGF-1 Standard Deviation Score (IGF-1 SDS)

    GF-1 SDS=(IGF-1 Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx (Yx refers to the IGF-1 value at particular timepoint x)

    Measured: Baseline,52 weeks

  4. IGF-1/IGFBP-3 molar ratio at 52 weeks

    IGF-1/IGFBP-3 molar ration=[IGF-1(ng/ml)/7.6]/[IGFBP-3 (ng/ml)/25.75]

    Measured: Baseline,52 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Jintrolong® low dose group and Jintrolong® high dose group in people with Dwarfism, run by Changchun GeneScience Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 7 sites in China.

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 10 inclusion and 20 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yanlin Chen (+86-60871786-8197, chenyanlin@gensci-china.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Height Standard Deviation Score for Chronological Age (ΔHtSDSCA) (time frame: Baseline,52 weeks). 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 19 Jul 2017.
