About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre, Prospective, Open Label, Single-arm, Non-interventional Post-marketing Study to Investigate the Long-term Safety and Clinical Parameters of Sogroya® Treatment in Children With Short Stature Due to Growth Hormone Deficiency Where Epiphysial Discs Are Not Closed Under Normal Clinical Practice Conditions in Japan Special Use-results Surveillance on Long Term Use of Sogroya® in Children With Short Stature Due to Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) Where Epiphysial Discs Are Not Closed

The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Sogroya® in children with short stature due to growth hormone deficiency where epiphysial discs are not closed under real-world clinical practice in Japan. The study will last for about 1 year (at shortest) to 3 years (at longest) depending on when the participant takes part in the study. The participant will be asked to answer questionnaire(s) about how they feel about the growth hormone (GH) product treatment once during the study (at about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment) and about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment.

What participants receive

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

  • SomapacitanDrug

    Also called Sogroya®

    Sogroya® treatment regimen will be in accordance with the approved product labelling in Japan.

Study groups in NCT06109935
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Children with GHDParticipants will be treated with commercially available Sogroya® according to routine clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. Administration will be according to the approved product labelling. The decision to treat a participant with Sogroya® is made at the treating physician's discretion before and independently from the decision to include the patient in this study.
Receives: Drug: Somapacitan

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of adverse reactions (AR)

    Measured as count of reactions.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (11)

  1. Number of adverse events (AEs)

    Measured as count of events.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  2. Number of serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured as count of events.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  3. Number of serious adverse reactions (SARs)

    Measured as count of reactions.

    Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  4. Change in height velocity (HV)

    Measured in centimeter (cm)/year.

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  5. Change in bone age

    Measured in years.

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  6. Change in ratio of bone age/chronological age

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  7. Change in height standard deviation score (HSDS)

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  8. Change in height velocity standard deviation score (HVSDS)

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  9. Change in insulin-like growth factor-I standard deviation score (IGF-I SDS)

    Measured as score ranging from -10 to +10. Negative scores indicated a IGF-I below the mean IGF-I for a child with the same age and gender, whereas positive scores indicated a IGF-I above the mean IGF-I for a child with the same age and gender. For participants with low IGF-I SDS at baseline, a positive change from baseline in IGF-I SDS indicated a better outcome.

    Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)

  10. Growth hormone device assessment tool (G-DAT)

    Measured as count of patients choosing the individual response category. G-DAT is a questionnaire to gather information on how they feel about the GH product device assessed as "very easy", "easy", "neither difficult or easy", "difficult" or "very difficult" where "very easy" is best and "very difficult" is worst.

    Measured: At 12 weeks

  11. Growth hormone patient preference questionnaire (GH-PPQ)

    Measured as count of patients choosing the individual response category. GH-PPQ is a disease specific questionnaire which measures the patient's growth hormone treatment preference.

    Measured: At 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 86 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 4 inclusion and 7 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 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 86 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 reactions (AR) (time frame: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 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 NCT06109935.

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 29 Apr 2026.
