NCT ID NCT05894876
First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 01, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study looked at children with idiopathic short stature (short stature with no known cause) who had already received growth hormone treatment for at least a year before puberty. Researchers wanted to find genetic differences between those who responded well and those who did not. No new treatments were given—just a one-time blood sample and review of medical records. The study was terminated early, but the goal was to better understand why some children benefit more from growth hormone.
