What is being measured

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

  1. Height standard deviation score for chronological age (Ht SDSCA)

    HtSDSCA = (height-reference mean for CA) / reference SD for CA (refers to the height value at particular timepoint)

    Measured: 26 weeks

  2. Height standard deviation score for chronological age (Ht SDSCA)

    HtSDSCA = (height-reference mean for CA) / reference SD for CA (refers to the height value at particular timepoint)

    Measured: 52 weeks

  3. Height standard deviation score for chronological age (Ht SDSCA)

    HtSDSCA = (height-reference mean for CA) / reference SD for CA (refers to the height value at particular timepoint)

    Measured: 78 weeks

  4. Height standard deviation score for chronological age (Ht SDSCA)

    HtSDSCA = (height-reference mean for CA) / reference SD for CA (refers to the height value at particular timepoint)

    Measured: 104 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. ΔHtSDSCA

    Change in height SDS for chronological age (Ht SDSCA)

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  2. Change in HV

    Change in annualized height velocity (HV)

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  3. Change in bone age maturation

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  4. Change in mole ratio of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  5. Change in PAH

    Change in prediction of adult height (PAH)

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  6. Change in obesity prevalence

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

  7. Change in overweight

    Measured: 26 weeks, 52 weeks,78 weeks and 104 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Somatropin Injection low dose group and Somatropin Injection high dose group in people with Small for Gestational Age Infant, run by Changchun GeneScience Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 5 sites in China.

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 11 inclusion and 7 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 12 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Height standard deviation score for chronological age (Ht SDSCA) (time frame: 26 weeks). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 12 Dec 2017.
