NCT06382155
The purpose of this study is to evaluate i) the effect of multiple doses of vosoritide and ii) the effect of the therapeutic dose of vosoritide compared to human growth hormone (hGH)(hGH; only in the United States), in children with idiopathic short stature (ISS).
NCT07450053
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.
NCT05894876
The study doctor will collect information from participants with Idiopathic Short Stature, who were treated with growth hormone for at least a year when they were children, before they reached puberty. The word "Idiopathic" refers to "unknown cause", and as such the study participants have/had short stature with no identifiable medical cause. The purpose of the study is to identify differences in the genetic characteristics of participants who responded well or poorly to growth hormone therapy. No medications or other treatments are provided to the participants by Novo Nordisk as part of this study. The study will last for up to 1 year. The participants will attend their usual doctor's appointments. If the participants are not usually visiting the clinic, they will need to do it only once as part of this study. If the participant agrees to take part in the study, they will be asked to read and sign the 'Agreement to take part form'.
NCT06309979
Study 111-903 will generate baseline growth data in children with ISS by collecting growth measurements and other variables of interest.
NCT04020913
The purpose of the study is to measure the functional effects of recombinant GH in skeletal muscle, in addition to growth promotion, in short prepubertal boys with either growth hormone deficiency or idiopathic short stature. Patients will be similarly short. The investigators will also compare these values in the short stature cohort to those obtained in testing performed in normally growing age-matched healthy control boys not on GH. The group on GH will be studied before and after 6 and 12 months of GH treatment.
NCT02973061
Analysis of the short-and long-term impact of recombinant growth hormone on attention deficit and hyperactivity charachteristics in children and adolescents. This will be examined in children prior to GH therapy and 3, 6 and 12 months during treatment, by filling validated questionnaires (Vanderbilt rating scales) evaluating ADHD. Data will be compared to healthy control group.
NCT01604395
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of growth hormone (Eutropin Inj./Eutropin plus Inj.) treatment with GHD (Growth Hormone Deficiency), TS (Turner Syndrome),CRF (Chronic Renal Failure), SGA (Small for Gestational Age), and ISS (Idiopathic Short Stature).
NCT01438801
The evaluation of a standardized diagnostic test to predict the growth response in a 1 year trial with Growth Hormone (GH) treatment (carried out in the context of regular patient care) in non GH deficient short children with low serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1).
NCT00396097
To demonstrate that an individualized, formula-based Genotropin regimen for children with Idiopathic Short Stature will lead to a targeted height gain (to reach the target of 10th percentile (%), or -1.3 SDS) during 24 months of treatment. The endpoint at 4 years is to explore treatment efficiency over four years of two formula-based dose regimens (sub-arms) compared to standard treatment
NCT01504802
It is now widespread practice to treat children with short stature with growth hormone. However, how an individual child will respond to growth hormone treatment is unpredictable and highly variable. Some children will not respond to growth hormone treatment at all. Currently, the only way to determine how well growth hormone therapy is working is to wait until they have been treated for six months and to compare the pre-treatment growth velocity with the growth velocity on treatment. It would be helpful to have a blood test that could be done shortly after starting growth hormone that could predict whether how well a child is responding to treatment. Such a blood test would allow endocrinologists to adjust the growth hormone dose (or possibly stop it altogether, if it is not working) long before the six months it currently takes. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and its partner amino-terminal propeptide of CNP (NTproCNP) are proteins that play a critical role in regulating growth. The investigators have previously shown that blood levels of these proteins increase in children being treated with growth hormone. The investigators believe that a blood test for these proteins will be useful in predicting a child's response to growth hormone treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine when after starting growth hormone, the blood levels of CNP and NTproCNP start to increase.
NCT01070173
The investigators hypothesize that low serum ghrelin levels may characterize a group of patients with poor weight gain and/or linear growth who do not have any other identified cause for growth failure. These patients may present with a variety of complaints and are often evaluated by both pediatric endocrinologists and pediatric gastroenterologists. The investigators hypothesize that ghrelin has a physiologically important role in linear growth and that chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal system, such as H. Pylori infection or celiac disease, may alter serum ghrelin levels in children. Low ghrelin levels may be a factor leading to poor growth, potentially by altering growth hormone secretion and/or by decreasing appetite. By measuring ghrelin levels in children with short stature and in children with gastrointestinal disease, the investigators will further elucidate the possible physiologic role of ghrelin in childhood growth and how it may be altered in conditions causing short stature and in certain gastrointestinal diseases.
