Brief Summary

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

This study is conducted in China only. The purpose is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of once weekly dosing of TransCon hGH, a long-acting growth hormone product, compare to once-daily dosing of human growth hormone (hGH) after 52 weeks of treatment in prepubertal children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD).
