  • Patients with confirmed diagnosis of active acromegaly with elevated IGF-1 (>ULN) and random GH (>1 μg/L) within 30 days of screening.

  • Patients who are not controlled by pituitary surgery or who are not eligible for or refuse surgery.

  • For patients on medical treatment for acromegaly the following washout periods must be completed before screening assessments are performed:

Exclusion Criteria
  • Concomitant treatment with somatostatin analogues unless concomitant treatment was discontinued 28 days before first pasireotide LAR injection is administrated.
  • Concomitant treatment with growth hormone receptor (GHR)-antagonists or dopamine agonists unless concomitant treatment was discontinued and the washout period was completed before the screening assessments are performed.
  • Patients with compression of the optic chiasm causing any visual field defect for whom surgical intervention is indicated.
  • Patients who require a surgical intervention for relief of any sign or symptom associated with tumor compression.
  • Patients who have undergone major surgery/surgical therapy for any cause within 4 weeks of screening.
  • Patients who have received radiotherapy of the pituitary within 4 weeks prior to screening or have not recovered from side effects of radiotherapy.
  • Patients who have a history of hypothyroidism and who are not adequately treated with stable doses of thyroid hormone replacement therapy.
