Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With One or More Drug-related Adverse Events
Baseline through End of Study (up to 9 years)

A drug-related AE was an AE that occurred postdose or was present predose and became more severe postdose and was considered to be related to study treatment. A summary of other nonserious AEs, and all SAE's, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events section.

Adult Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS)
Baseline through End of Study (up to 9 years)

The height of the participants were measured barefoot using a standard wall-mounted Harpenden stadiometer. SDS report the number of standard deviations from the mean for age and sex for an individual measurement (normal range: -2 to +2 SDS). Height SDS is derived by subtracting the population mean from individual's height value and then dividing that difference by the population standard deviation. Greater height SDS values indicate greater height.

Height Velocity Standard Deviation Score (SDS) at 12-Month Endpoint
12-Months

Height velocity (difference between 2 height measurements, divided by years elapsed between measurements) SDS was derived by subtracting age and gender-matched population mean height velocity from patient's height velocity (based on measurements 12 months apart) then dividing this value by age and gender-matched population height velocity SD.

Long-term safety of growth hormone replacement in adult patients with growth hormone deficiency
The 2 different doses used are non-inferior to each other
Comparison of first year height velocity of somatropin-treated versus non-treated patients with SHOX deficiency.

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) as a function of changes in insulin levels was investigated.
6 months
Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) (National Center for Health Statistics [NCHS]), Change From Baseline to Last Measurement, As Randomized Population
Baseline, and end of 4-year addendum

Value analyzed is change from baseline to the most mature height measurement available. The terms Standard Deviation Score (SDS) and National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) were defined in baseline characteristics. Greater height SDS values indicate greater height; positive values of change from baseline indicate increased height.

Height Standard Deviation Score (SDS) (National Center for Health Statistics [NCHS]), Last Measurement After Attainment of Final Height
at completion of core study, or at end of 4-year addendum

SDS report the number of standard deviations from the mean for age and sex for an individual measurement (normal range: -2 to +2 SDS). Height SDS \[NCHS\] uses the NCHS US general female population reference height values for age (Kuczmarski RJ et al. 2000) as the population mean and standard deviation. Calculation of Height SDS is provided in Height SDS \[Lyon\] description (Baseline). Since data reported by Kuczmarski RJ et al provides US general female population standards, values of Height SDS \[NCHS\] for untreated patients with Turner syndrome tend to be below zero e.g, -2.0 to -4.0 SDS.

Frequently asked questions about Somatropin

What is Somatropin used for?

Somatropin is a growth hormone treatment in Phase 3 clinical development for idiopathic short stature, small for gestational age, failure to thrive, growth disorder, growth hormone deficiency, and Turner syndrome. It is being studied for use in children and adults with these endocrine-related growth conditions.

Who makes Somatropin?

Somatropin is being developed by Eli Lilly and Company, a pharmaceutical company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol LLY. The company is conducting Phase 3 clinical trials to evaluate the treatment for various growth disorders.

What phase is Somatropin in?

Somatropin is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The Phase 3 trials have been completed, with no active trials currently ongoing for this treatment.

What clinical trials is Somatropin in?

Somatropin has been studied in four completed Phase 3 clinical trials. These include NCT00190658 in patients with SHOX deficiency and Turner syndrome, NCT00191074 in idiopathic short stature, NCT00191360 in adult growth hormone deficiency, and NCT00191529 in short children born small for gestational age.

Is Somatropin the same as growth hormone?

Somatropin is a form of growth hormone used in clinical trials for various growth disorders. It is being investigated as a treatment for conditions such as idiopathic short stature, Turner syndrome, and growth hormone deficiency, among others.
