Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female, aged 18-75 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing informed consent
  • Body mass index between 18.5-34.9 kg/sqm (both inclusive)
  • Meeting the pre-defined glomerular filtration rate for any of the renal function groups 1-4 (based on the measured glomerular filtration rate using exogenous sinistrin (Inutest®) as a filtration marker) or being in treatment with haemodialysis

Who cannot join

  • Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of child-bearing potential and not using an adequate contraceptive method (adequate contraceptive measure as required by local regulation or practice). Male of reproductive age who or whose partner(s) is not using adequate contraceptive methods (adequate contraceptive measures as required by local regulation or practice) or male who is not willing to refrain from donating semen for at least 16 days after last trial product administration
  • Any disorder, except for conditions associated with renal impairment in the groups of subjects with reduced renal function, which in the investigator's opinion might jeopardise subject's safety, evaluation of results, or compliance with the protocol. For example, arterial hypertension, anaemia, impaired glucose tolerance or type 2 diabetes are accepted in the group of subjects with renal impairment

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the somapacitan serum concentration time curve

    Calculated based on the serum concentrations measured in ug/l

    Measured: From time 0 to 168 hours after the last dosing on Day 15.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Maximum serum concentration of somapacitan

    Measured in ng/ml

    Measured: After the last dosing on Day 15 up until Day 43

  2. Time to maximum serum concentration of somapacitan

    Calculated based on the serum concentrations measured in ug/l

    Measured: After the last dosing on Day 15 up until Day 43

  3. Incidence of adverse events

    Count and % of events

    Measured: Day 0 - 43

  4. Occurrence of anti-somapacitan antibodies

    Count or % of events

    Measured: Day 0 - 43

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Somapacitan in people with Growth Hormone Disorder and Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Germany.

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 17 Apr 2020. 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 Germany. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Area under the somapacitan serum concentration time curve (time frame: From time 0 to 168 hours after the last dosing on Day 15.). 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 NCT03186495, 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 17 Apr 2020.
