New drug aims to boost growth in kids with noonan syndrome
NCT ID NCT06668805
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Aug 25, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests vosoritide, a protein that stimulates bone growth, in 30 children with Noonan syndrome who are not growing well despite growth hormone treatment. The goal is to see if vosoritide can safely increase their growth rate over six months. Participants will receive one of three doses, and researchers will monitor height changes and any side effects.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Vosoritide (a modified protein that helps with bone growth)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, vosoritide could offer a new treatment option to help children with Noonan syndrome grow taller when growth hormone alone isn't enough.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The long-term safety and effectiveness are still unknown, and there may be side effects.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Participants must be ≥ 3 years old, and \< 11 years old (females) or \< 12 years old (males), at the time of signing the informed consent form 2. A clinical diagnosis of Noonan syndrome. 3. A height assessment corresponding to a height Z-score of ≤ -1.28 SDs (below the 10th percentile for height) in reference to the general population of the same age and sex. 4. Tanner Stage 1, at time of signing the ICF. 5. Previous or current hGH treatment for short stature associated with their condition. 6. Inadequate growth confirmed with an AGV that is less than age- and sex-matched average stature AGV determined using median heights from CDC growth charts Exclusion Criteria: 1. Diagnosis of systemic disease or condition that may cause short stature other than Noonan syndrome, eg, renal, neoplastic, pulmonary, cardiac, gastrointestinal, immunologic and metabolic disease. 2. Bone age advanced beyond chronological age by more than 2 years. 3. Uncorrected congenital heart disease which places the participant at increased risk of an adverse cardiac outcome in the setting of hypotension, 4. Have an unstable condition likely to require surgical intervention during the study. 5. Evidence of decreased growth velocity (AGV \< 1.5 cm/year) as assessed over a period of at least 6 months and growth plate closure assessed using bilateral lower extremity X-rays. 6. Previous limb-lengthening surgery, or planned or expected to have limb lengthening surgery during the study period. 7. Planned or expected bone-related surgery (ie, surgery involving disruption of bone cortex, excluding tooth extraction), during the study period.
