NCT ID NCT07441876
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests a new medicine called BMN 333 against an existing drug (vosoritide) to see if it can safely improve growth in children with achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism. About 160 children aged 2 to 17 will take part. The goal is to measure how much they grow over a year.
