Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to assess and compare the efficacy and safety of two dose levels of somatropin over a long period (till final height is reached). This trial is an extension to trials GHRETARD/BDP/14/NL (a 2-year initial trial) and GHRETARD/BPD/20/NL (a 2-year extension trial).
