Limitations and caveats
Results for secondary and other pre-specified endpoints (except IGF-1) are reported for only up to 3 years because data beyond Year 3 was not summarized as the study was terminated due to Good Clinical Practice (GCP) non-compliance issues.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score According to Chronological Age (SDS/CA) at Year 3Baseline, Year 3
Height was measured using a wall mounted device (example, Harpenden stadiometer). Height SDS/CA was obtained by measuring the height, subtracting chronological age- and gender-appropriate mean height and dividing the result by standard deviation of that mean (as obtained from chronological age- and gender-specific population reference data). SDS indicated how many standard deviations higher (in case of positive SDS) or lower (in case of negative SDS) participant's value was relative to the mean of the reference population.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Height Standard Deviation Score According to Chronological Age (SDS/CA) at Final HeightBaseline, when final height was reached (assessed up to Year 11)
Height was measured using a wall mounted device (example, Harpenden stadiometer). Height SDS/CA was obtained by measuring the height, subtracting chronological age- and gender-appropriate mean height and dividing the result by standard deviation of that mean (as obtained from chronological age- and gender-specific population reference data). SDS indicated how many standard deviations higher (in case of positive SDS) or lower (in case of negative SDS) participant's value was relative to the mean of the reference population.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Weight Standard Deviation Score (SDS) at Final HeightBaseline, when final height was reached (assessed up to Year 11)
Body weight was measured using a balance scale. Weight SDS was obtained by measuring the weight, subtracting age- and gender-appropriate mean weight and dividing the result by standard deviation of that mean (as obtained from age- and gender-specific population reference data). SDS indicated how many standard deviations higher (in case of positive SDS) or lower (in case of negative SDS) participant's value was relative to the mean of the reference population.
PrimaryPuberty Stage at Final HeightWhen final height was reached (assessed up to Year 11)
Pubertal stage (graded from I to V for breast development and pubic hair development) according to the Tanner's method was collected. A low stage (Stage I) corresponds to a pre-pubertal stage and a high stage (Stage V) to an adult stage.
SecondaryBone AgeBaseline, Year 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11Bone age was determined by the Greulich and Pyle method using left wrist and hand X-ray.
SecondaryLean Body MassBaseline, Year 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11Lean body mass, a measurement of body composition, was assessed by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan.
SecondaryAnnual Percent Change in Lean Body Mass at Year 1, 2 and 3Baseline, Year 1, 2, 3
Lean body mass, a measurement of body composition, was assessed by DEXA scan. Annual percent change: (Lean body mass at current year minus lean body mass at previous year) divided by lean body mass at previous year, multiplied by 100.
SecondaryPercent Change From Baseline in Lean Body Mass at Year 3Baseline, Year 3
Lean body mass, a measurement of body composition, was assessed by DEXA scan. Percent change: (Lean body mass at Year 3 minus lean body mass at baseline) divided by lean body mass at baseline, multiplied by 100.
SecondaryLean Body Mass as Percentage of Total WeightBaseline, Year 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11Lean body mass, a measurement of body composition, was assessed by DEXA scan.
SecondaryLean Body Mass Standard Deviation Score According to Chronological Age (SDS/CA)Baseline, Year 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
Lean body mass was assessed by DEXA scan. Lean body mass SDS/CA was obtained by measuring lean body mass, subtracting the chronological age- and gender-appropriate mean lean body mass and dividing the result by standard deviation of that mean (as obtained from chronological age- and gender-specific population reference data). SDS indicated how many standard deviations higher (in case of positive SDS) or lower (in case of negative SDS) participant's value was relative to the mean of the reference population.
