Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Investigational Therapy
Children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and bone ages of 2-13 years in boys and 2-11 years in girls were randomized to receive antiandrogen (flutamide 10mg/kg/day orally), aromatase inhibitor (testolactone - 20mg/ kg/day orally OR letrozole - 1.5mg/m\^2 body surface area orally), low-dose hydrocortisone (6-8 mg/m\^2/day orally), and fludrocortisone (100-200 mcg/day, depending on lab evaluation, orally). Participants received the four-drug regimen until the age of 13 in the girls and 14 in the boys and then were switched to standard therapy. Female participants on investigational drugs were continued on flutamide until attainment of final adult height or two years post menarche. Participants who experienced early puberty received GnRH agonist therapy: depot leuprolide 7.5-15 mg/kg monthly intramuscularly or deslorelin 4 mcg/kg/day (adjusted based on weight and response) subcutaneously.

Group 2Standard Therapy
Children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and bone ages of 2-13 years in boys and 2-11 years in girls received standard therapy/conventional treatment (with hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone). Participants received hydrocortisone approximately 10-15 mg/m\^2/day orally, not exceeding 25mg/m\^2/day, and fludrocortisone 100-200 mcg/day orally depending on lab evaluation. Participants who experienced early puberty received GnRH agonist therapy: depot leuprolide 7.5-15 mg/kg monthly intramuscularly or deslorelin 4 mcg/kg/day (adjusted based on weight and response) subcutaneously.
