Daily shots aim to help kids with dwarfism grow taller
NCT ID NCT03989947
Summary
This study continues testing a daily injection called BMN 111 in about 70 children with achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism. The goal is to see if long-term treatment is safe and helps children grow taller until they reach near-adult height. Researchers will also check if the treatment improves bone health, body proportions, and quality of life.
