Somatuline Autogel: Acromegaly Self/Partner Injection Study

August 1, 2019 updated by: Ipsen

A Phase IV, Multicentre, Open Label, Controlled Study to Assess the Ability of Patients With Acromegaly, or Their Partners, to Administer Somatuline Autogel.

The purpose of this study is to allow patients with acromegaly, or their partners, to learn how to successfully inject Somatuline Autogel at home. Ability to perform unsupervised injections whilst maintaining adequate disease control will be assessed.
