Main objective
Scope: Safety, Efficacy, Therapy
To compare near Final Height Standard Deviation Score (FH SDS) in the GH+ and GH- groups, Mid-parental Target Height (TH) (estimated from parental heights[1]), and TH-FH (in cm and SDS from FH reference data).
Secondary objectives 1
- To compare the lipid profiles (fasting lipids - serum triglyceride and serum total cholesterol) and bone health in the GH+ and GH- groups

Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD)
Eligibility criteria
Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor
Inclusion criteria 1
- Children (8-15 years of age for girls, 9-17 years of age for boys) with reversed Isolated Growth Hormone Deficiency (I-GHD) in established puberty (Tanner stages B2/3 in girls & 6-12ml testes in boys) and normal brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan result (incl. small anterior pituitary). Children will need to have completed a minimum 6-week period of discontinuation of GH medication prior to a GH re-test. Children demonstrating GHD reversal (defined as a peak stimulated GH equal to or greater than 6.7 μg/L using arginine or insulin tolerance test) will be eligible to participate in this trial. Written informed consent must be obtained.
Exclusion criteria 1
- Hypopituitarism with or without additional pituitary hormone supplementation, a known genetic cause for I-GHD, organic GHD, ectopic posterior pituitary, other indications for GH therapy, pregnancy or lactation, any malignancy, current participation in another CTIMP, receipt of prednisolone or dexamethasone during the (minimum) 6-week discontinuation period before GH re-test
Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 1
- Final Height in Standard Deviation Score (FH SDS)
Secondary endpoints 1
- Growth Related: The proportion of children reaching normal adult height (- 2SD) The proportion reaching mid-parental Target Height (- 2SD) Difference in child's Target Height minus Final Height (in Standard Deviation Score and centimetres) Bone Related: Bone age delay at Final Height Bone age acceleration between enrolment and Final Height Bone health index at Final Height Biochemistry: Serum IGF-1 and lipid profiles (fasting lipids - serum triglyceride and total serum cholesterol) at Final Heig

- Clinical trial has enrolled but is currently on hold. Following the conclusion of the trial’s pilot phase the Funder have requested that the trial is closed as feasibility targets were not met (the trial was not put on hold for safety reasons). The GHD Reversal Trial team are preparing the costs of closing down the trial, as well as continuing the trial with an observational arm, for the Funder’s review.
