E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Pharmacokinetics (PK): • Change in TransCon PEG hGH serum concentration from baseline to last treatment period • Change in hGH serum concentration from baseline to last treatment period
Efficacy/Pharmacodynamics (PD): • Primary efficacy: The mean absolute and percent change of plasma IGF-I from baseline to last treatment period • Secondary efficacy: The mean absolute and percent changes in plasma IGFBP-3 from baseline to last treatment period; alterations in GHBP from baseline to last treatment period
Safety and Tolerability: Adverse events, injection site reactions, physical examinations, laboratory measurements, with particular emphasis on changes in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood glucose, immunogenicity (anti-hGH antibodies; anti-PEG antibodies) and injection site reactions. |
