NCT ID NCT06679270

Summary

This study is a long-term follow-up for people who completed a previous trial of metreleptin, a hormone treatment given as a daily injection under the skin. It aims to monitor the safety and continued effectiveness of the treatment over time in 24 participants with familial partial lipodystrophy, a rare disorder affecting fat distribution. The main goals are to track side effects and see if the treatment helps control blood sugar and fat levels in the long run.
