Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline in Annual Growth Rate Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 36 in Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population [Baseline, Month 36]

    Change in annual growth rate (AGR) standard deviation score (SDS) for chronological age (CA) derived by subtracting AGR SDS CA at baseline from each time point (Yx) value. AGR at Yx= (height Yx-height Y[x-1])/([date of Yx-date of Y{x-1}]/365.25). AGR as SDS calculated using Sempe reference means and standard deviations (SD) for growth rate. AGR SDS CA (for both baseline and Yx)= (AGR-reference mean for growth rate CA)/reference SD for growth rate CA. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12. SDS indicates how similar participant was to reference population.

12. Secondary Outcome
Title Change From Baseline in Annual Growth Rate Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 12 and Month 24 in PP Population
Description Change in annual growth rate (AGR) standard deviation score (SDS) for chronological age (CA) derived by subtracting AGR SDS CA at baseline from each time point (Yx) value. AGR at Yx= (height Yx-height Y[x-1])/([date of Yx-date of Y{x-1}]/365.25). AGR as SDS calculated using Sempe reference means and standard deviations (SD) for growth rate. AGR SDS CA (for both baseline and Yx)= (AGR-reference mean for growth rate CA)/reference SD for growth rate CA. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12. SDS indicates how similar participant was to reference population.
Time Frame Baseline, Month 12, Month 24

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
PP analysis set included all participants in the ITT set without a major protocol violation. Here 'N' (Number of participants analyzed) signifies those participants who were evaluable for this measure.
Arm/Group Title Genotonorm
Arm/Group Description Genotonorm (recombinant somatropin) up to maximum of 50 microgram/kilogram/day (mcg/kg/day) subcutaneously as decided by the investigator, divided in 7 daily doses for up to 3 years.

13. Secondary Outcome
Title Mean Growth Rate Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Bone Age (BA)
Description AGR at Yx was derived by subtracting AGR at baseline from Yx value. AGR was calculated each year and rescaled to 1 year if the interval between Yx and Y[x-1] was not 365 days, as long as a participant remained in the study. AGR at Yx = [height Yx-height Y{x-1}] / ([date of Yx - date of Y{x-1}] /365.25). GR in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for growth. BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand. SDS indicates how similar the participant was to the reference population.
