Hypopituitarism

This study tests a new long-acting growth hormone called ACP-001, given as a once-weekly injection, in children with growth hormone deficiency. It compares the safety and effectiveness of this weekly shot to the standard daily growth hormone injections over six months. The goal i…

This phase 3 trial tests a long-acting growth hormone called TransCon hGH, given as a once-weekly injection, in about 150 children with growth hormone deficiency. The study aims to see if the weekly shot is safe and helps children grow at a normal rate. All participants receive t…

This phase 3 trial tests whether a once-weekly injection of TransCon hGH works as well as daily growth hormone injections in prepubertal children with growth hormone deficiency. About 150 children who have not received growth hormone treatment before will receive either the weekl…

This study tests a long-acting growth hormone called TransCon hGH, given as a once-weekly injection, in children with growth hormone deficiency who have already completed a prior TransCon trial. The goal is to see if the weekly shot remains safe and effective over the long term. …

This phase 3 trial investigates whether a once-weekly injection of lonapegsomatropin, a long-acting growth hormone, can safely and effectively treat adults with growth hormone deficiency. The study compares the weekly drug against a placebo and a standard daily growth hormone pro…

This study tests an oral medication called LUM-201 in children with growth hormone deficiency who have not yet received treatment. The goal is to see if taking a pill daily can improve growth as effectively as standard daily injections. The trial also looks for a way to identify …

This study tested a new growth hormone medicine, somapacitan, given once a week, against the standard daily Norditropin in 200 children with growth hormone deficiency. After one year, children receiving the weekly shot grew just as much in height as those on daily shots, with sim…

This study tested an oral drug called LUM-201 in 15 children with growth hormone deficiency who had already received daily injections for a year. The goal was to see if LUM-201 could maintain or improve growth over 12 months. The drug was given once daily by mouth, and researcher…

This study tested a new once-weekly growth hormone injection (somapacitan) against the standard daily growth hormone shot in 76 children with growth hormone deficiency who had never been treated before. The main goal was to see how well the weekly shot worked for height growth an…

This study tested a new medicine, somapacitan, given once a week against the standard daily growth hormone shot (Norditropin®) in 110 Chinese children with growth hormone deficiency. The goal was to see if the weekly shot works as well as the daily one for helping children grow. …

This study looked at whether growth hormone therapy can improve muscle strength, power, and body composition in short prepubertal boys, both those with growth hormone deficiency and those with idiopathic short stature. Thirty short boys received growth hormone injections for 12 m…

This study investigates why some girls with Turner syndrome find it hard to make friends, read emotions, and control their feelings. Researchers will compare 35 girls with Turner syndrome to 35 girls with isolated growth hormone deficiency, all aged 7 to 16. Through puzzles, memo…

This study tested whether people with hypopituitarism (a condition where the pituitary gland doesn't work properly) have lower oxytocin levels compared to healthy individuals. Researchers gave participants a drug called exenatide (a GLP1 receptor agonist) to see if it could stimu…

This study looked at 500 children who had surgery for a rare brain tumor called craniopharyngioma. Researchers used MRI scans to grade how much the tumor damaged a key brain area (the hypothalamus). They found that more damage was linked to higher rates of growth hormone deficien…

This completed study looked at whether a blood test for a substance called ADMA can measure blood vessel health in children with growth hormone deficiency or those born small for their age. Researchers compared ADMA levels to ultrasound measurements of artery function in 23 child…

This completed study involved 40 families of children with growth hormone deficiency. Researchers used data from connected injector devices and family surveys to develop a personalized growth hormone treatment profile (PGTP) report. The goal is to help doctors create more tailore…

This study measured the biological (epigenetic) age of 10 children with growth hormone deficiency before and after 6 months of hormone therapy. Researchers wanted to see if treatment changes how old their cells appear. The goal is to better understand growth hormone's effects on …
