Background: TransCon hGH is a long-acting prodrug of recombinant human growth hormone (hGH) that releases fully active unmodified hGH into the blood compartment. This presentation will detail the final safety and efficacy results of TransCon hGH in a Phase 2 study in children with GHD over a treatment period of six months.Objective and hypotheses: The objective of this Phase 2 study in GHD was to investigate 1) safety and tolerability, 2) pharmacokinetic...

Background: TransCon human GH (hGH) is a long-acting prodrug of recombinant hGH that releases fully active unmodified hGH. TransCon hGH was shown in phase 1 studies in healthy volunteers and a phase 2 study in adults with hGH deficiency to: i) be safe and well tolerated, ii) provide dose-dependent hGH levels, with same peak level and exposure compared to daily GH, iii) be suitable for a once-weekly dosing regimen, and iv) induce an IGF1 response within the normal range. This o...

GX-H9 is a long-acting form of recombinant human GH under clinical development for both adults and children with GH deficiency (GHD). This study was designed to compare 12-month effects of once-weekly and twice-monthly (every other week; EOW) administration of GX-H9 treatment to that of Genotropin®, in pediatric patients with GHD. A randomized, open-label, active-controlled, parallel study was conducted at 27 endocrinology centers in 10 countries (Europe and Ko...
