About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Open-label, Uncontrolled, Multicentre, Rollover Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of LB03002 Administered Weekly in Adults With Growth Hormone Deficiency

The objective of this rollover study is to evaluate the long term (1 year) safety of a new weekly administered growth hormone preparation in adults with growth hormone deficiency who were treated with the same experimental preparation in study BPLG-005. In addition, further change in efficacy endpoints of BPLG-005 by prolonged treatment will be evaluated. Additional efficacy and safety data of the experimental preparation will be obtained from the switch-over patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Growth hormone - LB03002 in people with Pituitary Disorders and Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by LG Life Sciences.

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 5 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 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Incidence of adverse events, antibody formation and local tolerability assessment after 1 year treatment from baseline of BPLG-005 (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 Oct 2012.
