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 and Asia. The aim of the trial is to investigate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the exposure of the trial drug in the body) and pharmacodynamics (the effect of the investigated drug on the body) of a single dose of long-acting growth hormone (NNC0195-0092, somapacitan) compared to daily dosing of Norditropin® SimpleXx® (somatropin) in children with growth hormone deficiency.

NNC0195-0092 (somapacitan)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

somapacitan

Intervention Type DRUG

A single dose administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) of 4 different doses of NNC0195-0092 in an escalating order.

Each subject will be allocated to one dose level only. After completion of each dose cohort, a safety evaluation will be conducted prior to dose escalation.

Norditropin®

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

somatropin

Intervention Type DRUG

Administered subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin) once daily for 7 days. The daily dose is 0.03 mg/kg/day.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Confirmed diagnosis of GHD (growth hormone deficiency) as defined by two different GH (growth hormone) stimulation tests, peak GH level below or equal to 7.0 ng/ml. For children with three or more pituitary hormone deficiencies only one GH stimulation test will be needed. If in accordance with country specific practice, growth hormone deficiency can be defined by only one GH stimulation test, peak GH level below or equal to 7.0 ng/ml.
* Pre-pubertal children at screening. Boys: Tanner stage 1 and age above or equal to 6 years and below 13 years. Girls: Tanner stage 1 and age above or equal to 6 years and below 12 years
* Body weight above or equal to 16.0 kg and below or equal to 50.0 kg
* Stable GH replacement treatment for at least 3 months

Exclusion Criteria

* History or presence of malignancy
* Overt diabetes mellitus (fasting blood glucose above or equal to 7.0 mmol/l)
