Weekly shot could replace daily injections for short kids

NCT ID NCT03878446

Summary

This study compares a new weekly growth hormone injection (somapacitan) against the standard daily injection (Norditropin®) for children who were born small and remained short. Over 62 children will receive either treatment for 5 years to see if the weekly option works as well and is safe. The main goal is to see how fast children grow on each treatment over the first 6 months.
