Brief description of trial (Data source: BASEC)

In dieser Studie wird das Studienmedikament Somapacitan mit dem täglich angewendeten Norditropin verglichen, um die Sicherheit und Wirksamkeit bei Kindern mit Wachstumshormonmangel zu beurteilen. Somapacitan ist ein langwirksames Wachstumshormon, dass nur einmal pro Woche subkutan gespritzt werden muss, wohingegen Norditropin 1x pro Tag subkutan gespritzt werden muss. Insgesamt werden 192 Patienten nach dem Zufallsprinzip von einem Computersystem im Verhältnis 2:1 einem der beiden Prüfpräparate – Somapacitan (Wachstumshormon einmal pro Woche) oder Norditropin® (Wachstumshormon einmal pro Tag) – zugeteilt. Die Studie ist nicht verblindet, das heisst sowohl der Patient selbst wie auch das Personal des Prüfzentrums werden wissen, welche Behandlung der Patient bekommt. In der Schweiz sind 8 Patienten in 3 Prüfzentren geplant. Es handelt sich um eine internationale Studie, welche in mehreren Studienzentren weltweit durchgeführt wird.

Intervention investigated (e.g. drug, therapy or campaign) (Data source: BASEC)

Die gesamte Studiendauer beträgt für den einzelnen Patienten 4 Jahre.

Die Studie umfasst eine Screeningphase von ungefähr einer Woche, in der entschieden wird ob die Patienten für die Studie in Frage kommen. Geeignete Patienten beginnen danach eine 52 wöchige Phase, in der sie zufällig auf das Studienmedikament Somapacitan oder die Standardtherapie mit Norditropin eingeteilt werden. In der daraufolgenden 3 Jahre werden alle Studienpatienten mit Somapacitan behandelt um mehr Daten zur Behandlung und deren Sicherheit zu sammeln.

Insgesamt beinhaltet die Studie 19 Besuche am Studienzentrum und 1 Telefonkontakt mit dem Prüfarzt innerhalb von 4 Jahren.

Während den Visiten am Studienzentrum werden verschiedene Untersuchungen (z.B. Röntgen der Hand, Grösse, Gewicht, EKG) gemacht, sowie Blutproben entnommen.
