Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Oral Toremifene/Oral Placebo
Oral toremifene will be given once on Day 1 and continue daily x10 days. A single combined IV injection of growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH)/ghrelin (both doses 0.3mcg/kg) will be given on the overnight visit. After at least 3 weeks, subjects will return to receive oral placebo on Day 1 and continue daily x10 days. A single combined IV injection of GHRH/ghrelin (both doses 0.3mcg/kg) will be given on the overnight visit. |
|
Experimental: Oral Placebo/Oral Toremifene
Oral placebo will be given once on Day 1 and continue daily x10 days. A single combined IV injection of GHRH/ghrelin (both doses 0.3mcg/kg) will be given on the overnight visit. After at least 3 weeks, subjects will return to receive oral toremifene on Day 1 and continue daily x10 days. A single combined IV injection of GHRH/ghrelin (both doses 0.3mcg/kg) will be given on the overnight visit. |
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Summed mass of growth hormone over 10 hours
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for an average of 2 months with growth hormone measurements occuring 10 days after initiating study medication administration.
|
Subjects will be given toremifene/placebo on Day 1 to take for 10 days.
For one night between Days 8-12, from date of randomization, subjects will undergo a 12-h overnight (2200-1000h) fasting, every 10-min blood sampling.
The primary analytical outcome is the summed mass of growth hormone (ie.
mean/min/max) secreted in pulses over the first 10h of overnight blood samples.
Pulsatile growth hormone is relevant, since sex-steroid hormones and regulatory peptides uniquely control growth hormone secretory-burst mass
|
Participants will be followed for an average of 2 months with growth hormone measurements occuring 10 days after initiating study medication administration.
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Growth hormone responsiveness over last 2h
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for an average of 2 months with growth hormone measurements occuring 10 days after initiating study medication administration
|
Subjects will be given toremifene/placebo on Day 1 to take for 10 days.
For one night between Days 8-12, from date of randomization, subjects will undergo a 12-h overnight (2200-1000h) fasting, every 10-min blood sampling.
The secondary analytical outcome is growth hormone responsiveness over the last 2 hours to bolus GHRH/ghrelin stimulation (ie.
mean/min/max).

Participants will be followed for an average of 2 months with growth hormone measurements occuring 10 days after initiating study medication administration
