Major medical conditions and/or presence of contraindication to r-hGH treatment.
-
Known or suspected HIV-positive patient, or patient with advanced diseases such as AIDS or tuberculosis.

Group Intervention Description MOD-4023 MOD-4023 Once weekly injection of long acting r-hGH (MOD-4023) provided as a solution for injection containing 20 or 50 mg/mL MOD-4023 in a single patient use, multi-dose, disposable pre-filled pen (PEN).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Annualized Height Velocity 8 years A summary of the annualized HV at the end of each year for Periods III/IV (OLE Years 1 - 4) and V (PEN Years 1 - 5).
Delta Height SDS Every 12 Months 8 years A summary of annual change in height SDS at the end of each year for Periods III/IV (OLE Years 1 - 4) and V (PEN Years 1 - 5). Height SDS (Standard Deviation Score) reflects how an individual's height compares to the average for their age and sex, calculated using Growth Analyzer and based on Switzerland 1989 (Prader) reference. A z-score of 0 indicates a height equal to the population mean, while positive scores indicate above-average heights and negative scores reflect below-average heights.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Summary of IGF-1 SDS 8 years A summary of IGF-I SDS at the end of each year for Periods III/IV (OLE Years 1 - 4) and V (PEN Years 1 - 5). IGF-1 SDS (Standard Deviation Score) reflects how an individual's IGF-1 level compares to the average for their age and sex, based on reference values from Bidlingmaier et al. (2014, The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology \& Metabolism, 99(5):1712-1721). A z-score of 0 indicates a level equal to the population mean, while positive scores indicate above-average levels and negative scores reflect below-average levels. An IGF-1 SDS below -2 suggests deficiency, whereas a score above +2 is considered elevated. In the study, when IGF-1 SDS exceeded +2, a confirmatory test was performed, and if elevation was confirmed, the dose was reduced by 15%.
