About this study
Official title: A Multi-centre, Prospective, Open Label, Single-arm, Non-interventional Post-marketing Study to Investigate the Long-term Safety and Clinical Parameters of Sogroya® Treatment in Children With Short Stature Due to Growth Hormone Deficiency Where Epiphysial Discs Are Not Closed Under Normal Clinical Practice Conditions in Japan Special Use-results Surveillance on Long Term Use of Sogroya® in Children With Short Stature Due to Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) Where Epiphysial Discs Are Not Closed
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Sogroya® in children with short stature due to growth hormone deficiency where epiphysial discs are not closed under real-world clinical practice in Japan. The study will last for about 1 year (at shortest) to 3 years (at longest) depending on when the participant takes part in the study. The participant will be asked to answer questionnaire(s) about how they feel about the growth hormone (GH) product treatment once during the study (at about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment) and about 3 months after starting the Sogroya® treatment.
- Conditions
- Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children
- Being tested
- Somapacitan
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
SomapacitanDrug
Also called Sogroya®
Sogroya® treatment regimen will be in accordance with the approved product labelling in Japan.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Children with GHD | Participants will be treated with commercially available Sogroya® according to routine clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. Administration will be according to the approved product labelling. The decision to treat a participant with Sogroya® is made at the treating physician's discretion before and independently from the decision to include the patient in this study. Receives: Drug: Somapacitan |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of adverse reactions (AR)
Measured as count of reactions.
Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Secondary outcomes (11)
Number of adverse events (AEs)
Measured as count of events.
Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Number of serious adverse events (SAEs)
Measured as count of events.
Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Number of serious adverse reactions (SARs)
Measured as count of reactions.
Measured: From baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in height velocity (HV)
Measured in centimeter (cm)/year.
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in bone age
Measured in years.
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in ratio of bone age/chronological age
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in height standard deviation score (HSDS)
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in height velocity standard deviation score (HVSDS)
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Change in insulin-like growth factor-I standard deviation score (IGF-I SDS)
Measured as score ranging from -10 to +10. Negative scores indicated a IGF-I below the mean IGF-I for a child with the same age and gender, whereas positive scores indicated a IGF-I above the mean IGF-I for a child with the same age and gender. For participants with low IGF-I SDS at baseline, a positive change from baseline in IGF-I SDS indicated a better outcome.
Measured: Every 12 months from baseline (week 0) to end of study (up to 156 weeks)
Growth hormone device assessment tool (G-DAT)
Measured as count of patients choosing the individual response category. G-DAT is a questionnaire to gather information on how they feel about the GH product device assessed as "very easy", "easy", "neither difficult or easy", "difficult" or "very difficult" where "very easy" is best and "very difficult" is worst.
Measured: At 12 weeks
Growth hormone patient preference questionnaire (GH-PPQ)
Measured as count of patients choosing the individual response category. GH-PPQ is a disease specific questionnaire which measures the patient's growth hormone treatment preference.
Measured: At 12 weeks
