About this study
Official title: Post-Marketing Surveillance (Special Use-results Surveillance on Long-term Use) With Sogroya® A Multi-centre, Prospective, Open Label, Single-arm, Observational, Non-interventional Post-marketing Study to Investigate the Long-term Safety and Clinical Parameters of Sogroya® Therapy in Patients With Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (AGHD) (Only Severe Case) Under Normal Clinical Practice Conditions in Japan
Participants are invited to take part in this study because they have AGHD (only severe case). The purpose of this study is to assess long term safety and effectiveness of Sogroya® in patients with AGHD (only severe case) under normal clinical practice condition in Japan. Participants will get Sogroya® as prescribed by the study doctor. Participants will be in the study for about 2 to 5 years depending on when they take part in the study. Participants will be asked to fill in the quality of life questionnaires.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 47 sites in Japan.
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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 47 sites in Japan. 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.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Number of adverse events (time frame: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 260 weeks)). The study lists 4 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 13 Apr 2026.
