Background: PATRO children is an international, open, longitudinal, noninterventional study of the long-term safety and efficacy of Omnitrope®, a biosimilar recombinant human GH (rhGH).Objective and hypotheses: The primary objective is to assess the long-term safety of Omnitrope®, particularly the diabetogenic potential of GH in short children born small for gestational age, the risk of malignancies, and potential risks of...

Background: PATRO Children is an international, open, longitudinal, non-interventional study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Omnitrope®, a biosimilar recombinant human GH (rhGH).Objective and hypotheses: Long-term safety of Omnitrope® is the primary objective of PATRO Children (particularly the diabetogenic potential of GH in short children born small for gestational age, the risk of malignancies,...

Background: Children born small for gestational age (SGA) are predisposed to metabolic abnormalities. While the therapeutic benefit of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy in improving height is widely recognised, it can affect carbohydrate metabolism, potentially inducing diabetes.Objective and hypotheses: This ongoing, prospective study aims to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Omnitrope® (somatropin) in children ...
