简要总结
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how octreotide (Sandostatin LAR® Depot) affects levels of ghrelin, hunger, and body weight in people with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
详细描述
After baseline tests, a nurse will administer monthly injections of Sandostatin LAR® or placebo for 6 months. At the end of this initial 6-month treatment period and a 4-month washout period, study subjects will then crossover to receive the alternative therapy (placebo or octreotide) for an additional 6 months. Subjects will be followed for 16 months total at scheduled visits: 0, 2, 6, 10, 12, and 16 months (Table 2).

研究组 & 干预措施
Placebo
Normal Saline
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
Octreotide
They will be admitted to the inpatient unit of the OCTRI for testing six times. During each of these visits, testing will include measuring how well glucose (sugar) is processed, how much energy is burned off as heat, their amount of body fat, levels of the hormone ghrelin, and how much food is eaten at a meal. After the first study visit, subjects will begin monthly treatment with either the study drug or a placebo (an inactive substance), which will be continued for the first six months of the study. For the last six months of the study, subjects will be switched to the opposite treatment. During these study periods participants will return monthly for administration of study medication, physical examination, and blood draw to check liver enzymes.
