New growth hormone drug aims to help short children grow taller

This study tests a new medicine called GenSci134 in 128 children with growth hormone deficiency, a condition where the body doesn't make enough growth hormone, leading to slow growth. The study has two parts: first, a small group of children will get a single dose to check safety; second, a larger group will receive multiple doses over time to see if it helps them grow taller compared to a standard growth hormone drug. The goal is to find the best dose and confirm it works safely.
