What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 36: Full Analysis Population

    Height was measured using a wall mounted device (example, Harpenden stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded. Height SDS CA Yx = (height Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. Height in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for height. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 36

  2. Change From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score (SD) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 36: Per Protocol (PP) Population

    Height was measured using a wall mounted device (example, Harpenden stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded. Height SDS CA Yx = (height Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. Height in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for height. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 36

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Mean Height

    The standing height measurements were performed using a wall mounted device (example Harpenden Stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  2. Mean Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Bone Age (BA)

    The standing height measurements were performed using a wall mounted device (example Harpenden Stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded. Height SDS BA Yx = (height Yx - reference mean for BA Yx) / reference SD for BA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. Height in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for height. BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  3. Annual Growth Rate (AGR)

    AGR at Yx was derived by subtracting AGR at baseline from Yx value. AGR was calculated each year and re scaled 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 was calculated using the previous height measurements (Y[x-1]) and height recorded at Yx (AGR Yx = [height Yx-height Y{x-1}] / ([date of Yx - date of Y{x-1}] /365.25). Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  4. Growth Rate (GR) Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Bone Age (BA)

    GR SDS BA Yx = (GR Yx - reference mean for BA Yx) / reference SD for BA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. GR in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for GR. BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand.

    Measured: Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  5. Growth Rate (GR) Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA)

    GR SDS CA Yx = (GR Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. GR in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for GR. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  6. Body Mass Index (BMI)

    BMI was calculated by weight divided by height squared and measured as kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2).

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  7. Change From Baseline in Height at Month 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60

    The standing height measurements were performed using a wall mounted device (example Harpenden Stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  8. Change From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 12, 24, 48 and 60

    The standing height measurements were performed using a wall mounted device (example Harpenden Stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded. Height SDS CA Yx = (height Yx - reference mean for CA Yx) / reference SD for CA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. Height in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for height. CA calculated as integer (Date of height measurement-Date of birth)/365.25*12.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 48, 60

  9. Change From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Bone Age (BA) at Month 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60

    The standing height measurements were performed using a wall mounted device (example Harpenden Stadiometer). The standing height of the participant was measured two times and the mean of these measurements was recorded. Height SDS BA Yx = (height Yx - reference mean for BA Yx) / reference SD for BA Yx; Yx refers to the value at particular timepoint x. Height in SDS was calculated using Sempe reference means and SD for height. BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  10. Change From Baseline in Bone Age (BA) at Month 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60

    BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

  11. Ratio of Bone Age (BA) to Chronological Age (CA)

    BA was estimated locally using an X-ray from the left wrist and hand. CA at the date of corresponding X-ray (Date of X-ray - Date of birth)/365.25. Ratio of BA/CA at each annual study visit was calculated.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Somatropin in people with Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by Pfizer at 19 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Jun 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) for Chronological Age (CA) at Month 36: Full Analysis Population (time frame: Baseline, Month 36). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00163189, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2024.
