Registration Number
NCT03255694
Lead Sponsor
Changchun GeneScience Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

After the first stage (52 weeks) of Phase II clinical trial, Pegylated recombinant human growth hormone (PEG-rhGH) injection of appropriate dose in compliance with ISS clinical treatment strategy is used to treat children with ISS (Idiopathic Short Stature). The long-term efficacy and safety of the investigational product are evaluated, which can provide more scientific and reliable medication guidance information for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

GroupInterventionDescription
PEG-somatropinPEG-somatropinAfter the first stage (52 weeks) of Phase II clinical trial, the initial medication dose of this extension period is 0.2 mg/kg weight/week of PEG-rhGH for the high dose group, low dose group and negative control group, and it is adjusted in accordance with yearly height velocity (HV) and IGF-1 SDS of each visit. The maximum dose shall not exceed 0.4 mg/kg weight/week.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change of yearly height velocity (ΔHV)Baseline,the end of 3-year addendum

Change of yearly height velocity before and after treatment. Yearly Height Velocity=12×(Height Yx - Height at Baseline)/(Date of Yx - Date of Baseline)(Yx refers to the height value at particular timepoint x)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Standard deviation score of height at the actual age (ΔHT SDS)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

Standard deviation score of height at the actual age.

Change of IGF-1 SDS (ΔIGF-1 SDS)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

Change of IGF-1 SDS before and after treatement

Final height (FH)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

Final height

The improvement of FH compared with the baseline predicted adult height (PAH)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
Change fo Bone maturationBaseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

Change fo Bone maturation before and after treatement (bone age/chronological age)

Changes of standard deviation scores of body mass index (ΔBMI SDS)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

Changes of standard deviation scores of body mass index

The yearly average dose of PEG-rhGH injectionBaseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
Improvement of NAH (near adult height)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

For subjects who reach NAH with treatment but fail to follow-ups before reaching FH, the improvement of NAH in comparison with the baseline PAH (predicted adult height) shall be evaluated

The changes of the percentage of body fat (optional)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
The changes of bone mineral density (BMD) (optional)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
the improvement of PAHBaseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum

For subjects who fail to reach NAH with treatment and fail to follow-ups before reaching FH, the improvement of PAH in comparison with the baseline PAH shall be evaluated

The changes of the scores evaluated by the Quality of Life ScaleBaseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
The changes of lean body mass (LBM) (optional)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
The changes of fat mass (torso) (FM) (optional)Baseline,every 3 months,the end of 3-year addendum
