NCT ID NCT07450053

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new drug called GenSci134, a growth hormone injection, in 128 children with idiopathic short stature (short height with no known cause). The trial has two parts: first, a single-dose phase to check safety and how the body processes the drug; second, a multiple-dose phase comparing GenSci134 to an existing growth hormone (Norditropin) to see if it improves growth rate over 24 weeks. The goal is to find the right dose and confirm it is safe and effective.
