简要总结
This study will assess the efficacy of 8 months treatment of Sandostatin® LAR® High Dose monotherapy or Sandostatin® LAR® High Dose in combination either with growth hormone antagonist or dopamine agonist to control biochemical parameters (GH and insulin-like growth factor I [IGF I]) of acromegalic patients not achieving biochemical normalization at conventional regimen.

研究组 & 干预措施
Sandostatin LAR high dose Alone
All patients were treated with Sandostatin LAR 40 mg i.m. every 28 days for 3 months. Following biochemical assessment, patients with controlled GH and IGF-I after 3 months of Sandostatin LAR monotherapy continued to receive Sandostatin LAR 40 mg i.m. every 28 days for an additional 4 months.
干预措施: Sandostatin LAR (Drug)
Sandostatin LAR high dose + Pegvisomat
All patients were treated with Sandostatin LAR 40 mg i.m. every 28 days for 3 months. Following biochemical assessment, patients with uncontrolled GH and or IGF-I received Sandostatin LAR40 mg every 28 days in combination with weekly doses of pegvisomant 70 mg subcutaneously (s.c.) for a further 4 months

Sandostatin LAR high dose + Pegvisomat
All patients were treated with Sandostatin LAR 40 mg i.m. every 28 days for 3 months. Following biochemical assessment, patients with uncontrolled GH and or IGF-I received Sandostatin LAR40 mg every 28 days in combination with weekly doses of pegvisomant 70 mg subcutaneously (s.c.) for a further 4 months
干预措施: pegvisomant (Drug)
Sandostatin LAR high dose + Cabergoline
All patients were treated with Sandostatin LAR 40 mg i.m. every 28 days for 3 months. Following biochemical assessment, patients with uncontrolled GH and or IGF-I received Sandostatin LAR 40 mg every 28 days in combination with weekly cabergoline for a further 4 months, with cabergoline doses as follows:
- st week: 0.25 mg twice a week (0.50 mg/week)
- nd week: 0.50 mg/week twice a week (1 mg/week)
- rd week: 0.50 mg four times a week (2 mg/week)
- th week: 0.50 mg daily (3.5 mg/week) Subsequent 3 months: 0.50 mg daily (3.5 mg/week)

结局指标
主要结局
The Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) at 8 Months
时间窗: From Baseline to 8 months
A patient was classified as a Complete Responder (CR) if both biochemical parameters were controlled at the end of 8 months of treatment: * Mean 1 hour GH \< 2.5µg/L (according to Central Laboratory); and * IGF-I within the Central Laboratory Normal Range (for age and gender).
次要结局
- The Percentage of Participants With Partial Response (PR) at 8 Months(From Baseline to 8 months)
- The Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) At 3 Months(From Baseline to 3 months)
