About this study
Official title: A Phase Ib/II Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Active-controlled, Single/Multiple-dose, Dose-finding, Clinical Study of GenSci134 in Children With Idiopathic Short Stature
This study comprises two phases: Phase Ib and Phase II. Phase Ib is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, single-dose, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK/PD profile, and immunogenicity of a single subcutaneous dose of GenSci134 in children with idiopathic short stature (ISS).
Phase II is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multiple-dose, parallel-group study to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple subcutaneous doses of GenSci134 at different levels versus Norditropin® in children with ISS. It will also evaluate PK/PD profile, immunogenicity, and biomarkers to support dose selection for Phase III.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing GenSci134 Injection and Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Injection(Norditropin® FlexPro®) in people with Idiopathic Short Stature, 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 10 inclusion and 26 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2026. 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 combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
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?
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?
Contact Jinbo Li (+86 15001322766, lijinbo@genscigroup.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Phase Ib: Incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: From Day 1 to Day 35). The study lists 2 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 4 Mar 2026.
