A Trial Investigating the Safety, Tolerability, Availability and Distribution in the Body of Once-weekly Long-acting Growth Hormone (Somapacitan) Compared to Once Daily Norditropin NordiFlex® in Adults With Growth Hormone Deficiency
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, availability and distribution in the body of once-weekly long-acting growth hormone (NNC0195-0092, somapacitan) compared to once daily Norditropin NordiFlex® in adults with growth hormone deficiency (GHD).

Experimental: NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan)
|
Drug: somapacitan
Subcutaneous (s.c., under the skin) administration once weekly (Days 1, 8, 15 and 22) of 4 different doses of NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan) in an escalating order
Other Names:

Active Comparator: Norditropin NordiFlex®
|
Drug: Norditropin NordiFlex®
Subcutaneous (s.c., under the skin) administration daily for 28 days. The daily dosing will be the same as the pre-trial daily dose of human growth hormone (hGH) taken by the adult with growth hormone deficiency
