Study to Evaluate Patients With Acromegaly Treated With Lanreotide Autogel (Somatuline ATG)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of the protocol is to evaluate the correlation between plasma lanreotide levels and Growth Hormone (GH)/Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) dynamics and clinical improvement in patients with acromegaly treated with lanreotide Autogel (Somatuline ATG)

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- GH (basal and during Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)) and IGF-1 levels, in acromegalic patients previously treated with octreotide long acting release (LAR) 20 mg. [Weeks 16, 18 & 20]
- Acromegaly symptoms. [Weeks 16, 18 & 20]
- Indices of insulin secretion & sensitivity [Weeks 16, 18 & 20]
- Adverse events [Throughout study]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of patients with GH levels ≤ 2.5 ng/mL and the number of patients with IGF-1 level < upper limit of normal (ULN). [Weeks 16, 18 & 20.]
- Serum lanreotide Autogel 120 mg concentrations. [Weeks 16, 18 & 20.]
- ECG and gallbladder ultrasound [Week 20]
