Study Overview

Brief Summary

This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this observational study is to collect data from children with Prader-Willi Syndrome, who have been treated off-label with Norditropin® for more than 12 months to seek approval for Norditropin® treatment with Prader-Willi Syndrome.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Primary objective is to investigate changes in height Standard Deviation Score (SDS)

Time Frame: in response to 12 months Norditropin® treatment in children with PWS (referenced to PWS population

Secondary Outcomes

  • Glycated Fraction of Haemoglobin (HbA1c)(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Changes in height SDS from start of treatment to last observation during Norditropin treatment (referenced to PWS population1)(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Haematology(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Change in body composition (DEXA, Bio impedance or stable isotope dilution)(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Height velocity (HV) and change in HV(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Adverse Events.(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I)(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
  • Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and active form of free thyroxin(at 12 months- and at last observation during Norditropin treatment)
