Background: The Global Increlex® Registry (NCT00903110) monitors real-world safety and effectiveness of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor (rhIGF-1; Increlex® [mecasermin]) in severe primary IGF-1 deficiency (SPIGFD). Patient characteristics, effectiveness and safety data from 2008–2023 are described.
Methods: Descriptive analyses of registry data from children/adolescents aged 2–18 years receiving rhIGF 1 for SPIGFD in the EU and US.
Results: At data cut-off (20 April 2023), 324 patients had enrolled. 59.6% were naïve pre pubertal (NPP) and 14.5% had Laron syndrome; 8.0% were NPP with Laron syndrome. For therapy-ended patients (n = 192/322) and patients who reached adult height (n = 102/324), median (Q1;Q3) treatment duration was 3.0 (1.5;4.5) and 3.9 (2.3;6.0) years, respectively. Height velocity was similar in NPP and Laron syndrome populations at Years 1 and 5, with greatest improvements in height outcomes observed in NPP patients with Laron syndrome (Table). Height standard deviation score (HtSDS) improvement in NPP patients from rhIGF-1 initiation to Years 1 (n = 144), 2 (n = 124) and 4 (n = 78) was greater in patients with lower baseline HtSDS (P <0.05). Overall, 64.0% (n = 206/322) experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE). Hypoglycaemia was the most frequent (25.8%) targeted TEAE. 19 (5.9%) patients withdrew treatment due to TEAEs; 1 fatal TEAE was reported (myelodysplastic syndrome, unrelated to treatment).

Conclusion: Long-term HtSDS improvements in registry-enrolled patients with SPIGFD are encouraging. Five-year treatment data are likely enriched by treatment-responsive NPP patients, especially those with Laron syndrome. Safety data aligned with previous reports.
