A Trial to Compare the Safety of Once Weekly Dosing of Somapacitan With Daily Norditropin® FlexPro® for 26 Weeks in Previously Human Growth Hormone Treated Adults With Growth Hormone Deficiency (REAL 2)

June 23, 2020 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Multicentre, Multinational, Randomised, Open-labelled, Parallel-group, Active-controlled Trial to Compare the Safety of Once Weekly Dosing of Somapacitan With Daily Norditropin® FlexPro® for 26 Weeks in Previously Human Growth Hormone Treated Adults With Growth Hormone Deficiency

This trial is conducted in Europe and Asia. The aim of the trial is to compare the safety of once weekly dosing of somapacitan (administered with an investigational pen) with daily Norditropin® FlexPro® (somatropin delivered within a prefilled pen) for 26 weeks in previously human growth hormone (hGH) treated adults with growth hormone deficiency.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria: - Male or female of at least 18 years of age and not more than 79 years of age at the time of signing informed consent - Adult growth hormone deficiency diagnosed for 6 months or longer (defined as 180 days) prior to screening - Treatment with hGH (human growth hormone) for at least 6 months at screening - If applicable, hormone replacement therapies for any other hormone deficiencies, adequate and stable for at least 90 days prior to randomisation as judged by the investigator Exclusion Criteria: - Active malignant disease or history of malignancy. Exceptions to this exclusion criterion: Resected in situ carcinoma of the cervix and squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma of the skin with complete local excision. / Subjects with GHD (growth hormone deficiency) attributed to treatment of intracranial malignant tumours or leukaemia, provided that a recurrence-free survival period of at least 5 years is documented in the subject's file - For patients with surgical removal or debulking of pituitary adenoma or other benign intracranial tumour within the last 5 years: Evidence of growth of pituitary adenoma or other benign intracranial tumour within the last 12 months (defined as below or equal to 365 days) before randomisation. Absence of growth must be documented by two post-surgery MRI or CT scans. The most recent MRI or CT scan must be performed below or equal to 9 months (defined as below or equal to 270 days) prior to randomisation

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of Adverse Events
Time Frame: Weeks 0 - 26
An adverse event can be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of a product, whether or not considered related to the product. Presented results are event rate per 100 patient years of exposure.
Weeks 0 - 26
Incidence of Injection Site Reactions
Time Frame: Weeks 0- 26
Presented results are event (injection site reaction) rate per 100 patient years of exposure.
Weeks 0- 26

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Occurrence of Anti-NNC0195-0092 Antibodies
Time Frame: At week 0 (baseline), and at week 2, 4, 8, 16, 25 and 27
Number of participants with anti-somapacitan (NNC0195-0092) antibodies are presented.
At week 0 (baseline), and at week 2, 4, 8, 16, 25 and 27
Change in Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) Scores (Effectiveness,Convenience, and Global Satisfaction Scores)
Time Frame: Baseline (week 0), week 26
The Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) is a psychometric measure of a patient's satisfaction with medication. It consists of 3 subscales: effectiveness, convenience and global satisfaction. Items are rated on a 5 or 7-point scale according to participants' experience with the medication. Each domain score can vary from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating higher effectiveness of treatment, more convenient use of medication and overall greater satisfaction with the treatment.
Baseline (week 0), week 26
