  Purpose

PREDICT Validation is a validation pharmacogenetic trial . The purpose of this study is to confirm that some genes can be used to predict whether a patient diagnosed with Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency ( IGHD) or Turner Syndrome (TS) will respond well or poorly to a treatment with recombinant human growth hormone (r-hGH).


Condition Intervention Phase
Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency
Turner Syndrome
Other: Blood sampling
Phase 4

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Non-Randomized
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Official Title: First Year Growth Response Associated Genetic Markers Validation Phase IV Open-label Study in Growth Hormone Deficient and Turner Syndrome Pre-pubertal Children : the PREDICT Pharmacogenetics Validation Study

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary objective of the trial is to confirm that at least one of the genetic markers associated to the amplitude of first year growth response to r-hGH treatment identified in PREDICT LTFU Study (28614) is replicated in an independent population. [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    The list of genetic markers associated to the first year growth response to r-hGH measured by the 3 following growth parameters:

    • Change from baseline to year 1 in Height (cm)
    • Change from baseline to year 1 in, Height SDS
    • HV SDS at 1 year


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To evaluate the contribution of validated genetic markers to the amplitude of first year growth response to r-hGH therapy in IGHD children using a model derived from the GHD KIGS predictive model of the first year growth response to r hGH [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The first year growth predictive value of the models including the validated genetic markers on HV (cm/year) at 1 year in IGHD children treated with r-hGH combined to well-established clinical, auxological and biological markers derived from the KIGS GHD predictive model of the first year growth response to r-hGH therapy

  • To evaluate the contribution of validated genetic markers to the amplitude of first year growth response to r-hGH therapy in TS girls using a model derived from the TS KIGS predictive mode of the first year growth response to r-hGH [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The first year growth predictive value of the models including the validated genetic markers on HV at 1 year in TS girls treated with r-hGH combined to well established clinical and auxological markers derived from the KIGS TS predictive model of the first year growth response to r-hGH therapy


Estimated Enrollment: 395
Study Start Date: September 2011
Estimated Study Completion Date: November 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: November 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Retrospective data collected from patients treated with r-hGH Other: Blood sampling
Blood sampling for genetic markers testing and retrospective data will be collected relative to the first year of the subject's r-hGH treatment. No IMP is provided during the trial

Detailed Description:

This study is an open-label, interventional, retrospective, multicentre, international study, single-arm, non-randomized, and non-controlled. The subject's trial participation will include a single visit. During the visit, subjects who give consent to participate in the trial will undergo blood sampling for genetic markers testing and retrospective data will be collected relative to the first year of the subject's r-hGH treatment.

The r-hGH treatment followed by the subjects are indicated for pediatric population, therefore most of the patients included into the trial will be below 18 years old.

This study is a non-Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) trial therefore no drug product data is provided.

  Eligibility

Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Pre-established diagnosis of IGHD or TS based on classical criteria with at least 1 year of r-hGH therapy and with Tanner stage 1 at treatment start
  • Retrospective availability of a complete set of clinical, auxological and biological parameters necessary for building the predictive model

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Acquired GHD
  • Any drug or disease that could affect growth during the first year of r-hGH treatment
