Weekly shot could replace daily injections for kids with growth disorders

NCT ID NCT07221851

Summary

This study is testing if a new, once-weekly growth hormone injection works as well as the current standard of daily injections for children with certain conditions that cause short stature. About 186 children and teens with Turner syndrome, SHOX deficiency, being born small, or unexplained short stature will receive either the weekly treatment for two years or daily shots for one year followed by weekly shots for one year. The main goal is to see if the weekly treatment helps children grow at a similar rate to the daily treatment.
