Use of growth hormone therapy in short patients born small for gestational age: data from real-life French clinical practice

Coutant Regis , Leheup Bruno , Nicolino Marc , Salles Jean-Pierre ,

Background: A national French registry was created to address the absence of data on final height and safety following long-term exposure to supraphysiological doses of growth hormone (GH) in children born small for gestational age (SGA).Methods: This observational, non-interventional study (NCT01578135) included GH-naïve and non-naïve SGA children treated with GH at 126 sites in France. The inclusion period wa...

Background & Objective: Recombinant human insulin like growth factor 1 (rhIGF1) therapy is the only treatment available for primary IGF1 deficiency and related disorders. However, it’s efficacy in promoting growth is controversial and needs cautious monitoring for adverse effects. The aim of this study was to determine the long-term efficacy and safety profile of rhIGF1 therapy.Methods: Retrospective review of a...

Starting recombinant human growth hormone treatment at an early age improves adherence and catch-up growth in patients with growth disorders, and highlights the importance of the new guideline on referral of short children to paediatric care

van Dommelen Paula , Zoonen Renate van , Vlasblom Eline , Wit Jan M. , Beltman Maaike , Arnaud Lilian , Koledova Ekaterina ,

Background: The new preventive child health care guideline for referral of short/tall children facilitates early detection of growth disorders. Understanding the impact of early treatment initiation on recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) adherence and catch-up growth can support the use of the guideline.Aim: To evaluate the impact of age at rhGH treatment start on adherence (≥85% vs <85% of prescribed doses...

Long-term safety of growth hormone in adults and adolescents with growth hormone deficiency: An overview of the full-cohort in KIMS

Johannsson Gudmundur , Touraine Philippe , Feldt-Rasmussen Ulla , Pico Antonio , Vila Greisa , Carlsson Martin , Beek Andre P van , Wajnrajch Michael P , Gomez Roy , Yuen Kevin CY ,

Objective: KIMS (Pfizer International Metabolic Survey) was a postmarketing surveillance study of growth hormone (GH) replacement in adults and adolescents with GH deficiency (GHD) that concluded in October 2012. This analysis aimed to evaluate the overall safety outcomes from the full cohort of GH-treated patients of KIMS.Methods: Data were collected on adults and adolescents with confirmed GHD and closed epiphyses trea...

Comparison of actual GH dose with labeled dose in children with short stature based on the LG Growth Study

Lee Hae Sang , Chung Sochung , Rhie Young-Jun , Kim Jae Hyun , Chae Hyun-Wook , Choi Jin Ho , Lee Young Ah , Kim Yoo-Mi , Hwang Il Tae ,

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze dosing patterns of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) (Eutropin® Inj\., Eutropin®Pen Inj., and Eutropin®AQ Inj. for daily injection, and Eutropin®Plus Inj. for weekly injection, LG Chem, Ltd.) using the collected data of the LG Growth Study (LGS) in Korean pediatric patients with growth disorders including growth hormone deficiency (GHD), idiopathic sho...

Persistently increased IGF-I levels and excellent auxological response despite low doses of recombinant growth hormone in a GH-deficient patient with a heterozygous variant of the growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene

Laura Nicolosi Maria , Cattoni Alessandro , Maitz Silvia , Marco Santo Di , Biondi Andrea , Molinari Silvia ,

Introduction: Homozygous loss-of-function mutations of the growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene result in GH insensitivity due to a dysfunctional receptor protein. Heterozygous mutations may result in a variable clinical spectrum ranging from normal height to severe short stature. Gain-of-function variants have been reported rarely.Case Report: We hereby report the case of a Russian boy who was referred to our endocrine o...

Objective: KIGS (Pfizer International Growth Survey) was a large, international database of pediatric patients who received recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) as prescribed in real-world clinical settings. This analysis evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy data from all participants until KIGS close in 2012.Methods: Children with growth disorders and treated with rhGH (Genotropin® [somatropin]...

The effect of growth hormone therapy on linear growth and weight gain in children with growth hormone deficiency vs idiopathic short stature (ISS) a controlled study

Elsiddig Sohair , Soliman Ashraf , Alaaraj Nada , Khalil Ahmed , Ahmed Hannah ,

Introduction: Controversy still exists about the effect of GH treatment on linear growth and weight gain (WG) in children with ISS.Aim: To study linear growth and weight gain in children with ISS treated with GH vs those not treated in comparison with treated children with GHD.Methodology: We conducted a longitudinal controlled study on 78 children presented to a pediatric clinic with short stature...

Linear growth response top Growth hormone therapy in underweight versus normal-weight children with idiopathic short stature (ISS).

Elsiddig Sohair , Soliman Ashraf , Alaaraj Nada , Khalil Ahmed , Ahmed Hannah ,

Introduction: A multicenter clinical trial in the US showed that underweight small for gestation (SGA) children responded to GH treatment like non-underweight SGA children. However, data on GH response in short underweight children with the normal birth size is not studied well.Aim: To measure growth response to GH therapy in underweight children versus short normal-weight children with idiopathic short stature (ISS) bor...
