Background: CTP-modified hGH (MOD-4023) has been developed for once weekly administration in GH deficient (GHD) adults and children. Immunogenicity samples of once-weekly s.c. administration of MOD-4023 were detected for the presence of binding and neutralizing anti-MOD-4023 Ab’s in pediatric Phase 2 study.Objective and hypotheses: During the first year of the study, 53 pre-pubertal GHD children were treated with once-weekly s.c. injections of one o...

Background: OPKO Biologics is developing MOD-4023, a long-acting growth hormone (GH), intended for weekly dosing for the treatment of idiopathic GH deficiency in children. At ESPE2015, we presented pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD, based on IGF-1) models for weekly MOD-4023 administration in children aged 3–11 years. These models confirm that IGF-1 (and IGF-1 SDS) varies during the dosing interval. One critical clinical and research issue is when to optimally ...
