Introduction: Somatrogon, a long-acting recombinant human growth hormone, is approved in multiple countries as a once-weekly treatment for pediatric growth hormone deficiency (pGHD). This abstract describes results from up to 8 y of study (main study + open label extension [OLE]) evaluating the efficacy and safety of somatrogon in pGHD. Methods: This randomized, open-label, dose-finding Phase 2 study comprised 5 treatment periods. Subjects were randomized 1:1:1:1 to once-weekly somatrogon (titrated up to 0.25, 0.48, or 0.66 mg/kg/wk) or once-daily Genotropin (0.24 mg/kg/wk) for 12 mo of the main study (periods I and II), after which they were eligible to enroll in the OLE (periods III-V). In period III, somatrogon recipients continued at their previous dose; Genotropin recipients were re-randomized to 1 of the 3 somatrogon doses. In period IV (OLE Year (Y)2–4), all subjects switched to somatrogon 0.66mg/kg/wk; in period V (OLE Y5 onward), all subjects switched from single-use somatrogon vials to prefilled pen devices (somatrogon 0.66 mg/kg/wk). Results: Of 53 subjects who completed the main study, 48 entered the OLE. At OLE entry, 66.7% were male, all but 1 were pubertal Tanner stage 1, and mean (SD) age was 7.7 (2.1) y. At OLE Y6 end, there were 30 subjects with a mean±SD height velocity (HV) of 6.47±2.07 cm/y and a mean±SD height SD score (HT SDS) of 0.43±0.94. At OLE Y7 end, 26 subjects had a mean±SD HV of 5.31±1.68 cm/y and a mean HT SDS of 0.44±0.96. Four subjects achieved final height (defined as HV <1 cm/y). Their HVs in the last 6-mo interval and last assessed heights were: subject 1: 0.54 cm/y, 174.5 cm; subject 2: 0.7 cm/y, 173.2 cm; subject 3: 0.56 cm/y, 179.5 cm; and subject 4: 0.19 cm/y, 168.7 cm. Somatrogon efficacy was not affected by positive test results for antidrug antibodies (ADA). HV and cumulative ΔHT SDS (cΔHT SDS) were similar between subjects who tested ADA+ vs ADA-: at OLE Y6 end, 15 who tested ADA+ had HV 6.47±1.69 cm/y and cΔHT SDS 3.09±1.04; and 15 who tested ADA- had HV 6.48±2.46 cm/y and cΔHT SDS 3.62±1.40. At OLE Y7 end, 14 subjects who tested ADA+ had HV 5.22±1.52 cm/y and cΔHT SDS 3.06±0.98; 12 who tested ADA- had HV 5.42±1.91 cm/y and cΔHT SDS 3.75±1.39. In OLE Y7, TEAEs were reported in 35.5% subjects, which was lower than the main study (69.0%) and OLE Y1–6 (range: 41.9–57.5%). No serious TEAEs or TEAEs leading to study drug withdrawal occurred in OLE Y7. Study drug–related TEAEs occurred in 2 subjects: keeled chest acquired and scoliosis in 1 and arthralgia in 1. No deaths were reported throughout the OLE. Conclusion: Following up to 8 y of somatrogon treatment, including 7 y of the OLE, subjects demonstrated continued growth, 4 achieved final height, and somatrogon maintained a favorable safety profile. Testing ADA+ did not appear to affect subject growth. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01592500. Acknowledgements: The authors wish to thank all the investigators involved in this study.
