What participants receive

  • SomatropinDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. The main efficacy variable is the height SDS (SEMPE) before and after treatment.

  2. The standing height of the patients is measured during the inclusion visit and at each follow-up visit.

  3. The height measurements are always performed at the same time of the day by

  4. use of a wallmounted device (e.g. Harpenden Stadiometer).

  5. Each child has to be measured three times, the mean of these measurements is recorded in the Case Report Form as the present height.

  6. The body weight is measured by use of a balance scale.

  7. Puberty stage is assessed (according to Tanner´s cotation) at the same visits as height is measured.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Somatropin in people with Growth Hormone Deficiency and Growth Retardation, run by Pfizer at 1 site 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 2 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 5 Aug 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The main efficacy variable is the height SDS (SEMPE) before and after treatment.. The study lists 7 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 NCT00174278, 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 5 Aug 2008.
