Efficacy and Safety Study of Sr-hGH in Comparison With Daily hGH in ISS Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess dosing requirements and establish the efficacy of SR-hGH in idiopathic short stature patients (ISS). This phase II study is designed as multi-center, randomized, active comparator-controlled, parallel, open-label.
45 patients were randomized to three arms with 1:1:1 ratio, two arms of Sr-hGH and one of daily hGH. Two doses of Sr-hGH were administered, which are 0.5 and 0.7mg/kg/week. And the other arm received daily hGH at 0.37 mg/kg/week.
Patients in Sr-hGH groups injected on a specific day of the every week for 26 weeks. And patients randomized to daily hGH group injected for 6 days a week.
Patients visited study centers five times, firstly at screening (Visit 1), at randomization (Visit 2), after 13th dosing (Visit 3), after 26th dosing (Visit 4), and finally for follow-up (Visit5).
