Assessment of Adherence, Quality of Life, Clinical Response and Safety of Daily and Long-Acting Growth Hormone Therapy
Completed
The purpose of the study is to compare quality of life, adherence, insulin resistance, body composition and efficacy of long-acting growth hormone (LAGH) to daily growth hormone (DGH) in children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD). These objectives will be evaluated every 6 months for subjects prior to switch from DGH to LAGH, and 6 months after.

Human Growth Hormone Injections in the Knee Joint to Treat Osteoarthritis
Suspended
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if growth hormone injections can be used to treat osteoarthritis (OA) in the knee. Human studies have shown that repeated injections of human growth hormone leads to the production of articular chondrocytes, which are the cells that make up the cartilage in the knee joint. Restoring cartilage in the knee can alleviate pain, improve function, and postpone the need for a joint replacement procedure. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Do... Read More

Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone Analog to Improve Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Associated Cardiovascular Risk
Active Not Recruiting
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is common in individuals with obesity and is a significant threat to public health, because it can lead to impaired liver function and liver failure. Growth hormone is a hormone produced in the pituitary gland that helps regulate metabolism and growth. Individuals with obesity, on average, secrete less growth hormone than individuals without obesity. There are data to suggest that growth hormone may help to reduce the amount of fat in the liver, and may a... Read More

Growth Hormone Treatment in Children With Phelan McDermid Syndrome
Completed
Phelan McDermid syndrome (PMS) is a rare genetic form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) due to deletions or mutations in the SHANK3 gene. This is a pilot open labeled trial of growth hormone therapy in children with PMS targeting social withdrawal and repetitive behavior. This research study will include children with PMS between 2-12 years of age who will receive growth hormone daily for 12 weeks, if found to be eligible. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of growth hormone on beha... Read More

Growth Hormone and Insulin Growth Factor 1 Deficiencies in Children/Adolescents Following Traumatic Brain Injury: The Impact on Growth and Neuropsychological Development
Completed
The purpose of this study is to look at the relationship between growth hormones, and recovery from a TBI - traumatic brain injury. It is believed that a TBI may interfere with the body's ability to produce growth hormones. These hormones may be needed by the body for growth, mental development and sexual maturation.
