About this study

Official title: The Extension Study of Phase IV Clinical Trial of Pegylated Somatropin (PEG Somatropin) to Treat Growth Retardation Caused by Endogenous Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children

  1. To further evaluate the safety and efficacy of PEG-Somatropin in the treatment of children with growth hormone deficiency for a relatively long period
  2. To explore the factors influencing the efficacy of PEG-Somatropin and to establish the height prediction model based on Chinese children with short stature, and to provide the basis and guidance for standard and reasonable long-term clinical application of PEG-Somatropin.
Being tested
PEG-somatropin

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Ht SDSca (Height standard deviation score for chronological age)

    Calculated by dividing the difference between the actual height of a patient and the mean height of the population for that chronological age by the standard deviation (SD) of the height of the population for that chronological age

    Measured: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Ht SDSBA (Height standard deviation score for bone age)

    Measured: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks

  2. Yearly growth velocity

    Measured: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks

  3. IGF-1 SDS (Standard deviation score of insulin-like growth factor-1)

    Measured: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks

  4. Bone age

    Measured: Baseline, 26 weeks, 52 weeks, 78 weeks, 104 weeks, 130 weeks

  5. Near final height for some subjects

    When yearly growth velocity of some subject is no more than 2cm/year.

    Measured: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing PEG-somatropin in people with Growth Retardation, run by Changchun GeneScience Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 12 Dec 2017. 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 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiaohua Feng (0431-85170552, fengxiaohua@gensci-china.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ht SDSca (Height standard deviation score for chronological age) (time frame: Baseline, every 13 weeks until 130 weeks). 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 NCT03290235, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Dec 2017.
