Outcome Measures

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Throughout the 52 week treatment period ]
    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of once-weekly lonapegsomatropin in adults with growth hormone deficiency


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline in Trunk Percent Fat [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
    Change from baseline in trunk percent fat (as assessed by dual-energy x ray absorptiometry [DXA]) at Week 52

  2. Change from Baseline in Trunk Fat Mass [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
    Change from baseline in trunk fat mass (as assessed by dual-energy x ray absorptiometry [DXA]) at Week 52

  3. Change from Baseline in Total Body Lean Mass [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
    Change from baseline in total body lean mass (as assessed by dual-energy x ray absorptiometry [DXA]) at Week 52

  4. Evaluate serum IGF-1 and IGF-1 SDS [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
    To evaluate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of once-weekly lonapegsomatropin in adults with growth hormone deficiency

  5. Evaluate serum hGH, lonapegsomatropin, and mPEG levels [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
    To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of once-weekly lonapegsomatropin in adults with growth hormone deficiency
