Summary

Malnutrition and altered protein catabolism are serious problems in renal failure and hemodialysis (HD) patients. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety of GHRP-1/AG in subjects with ESRD on HD; to characterize the pharmacodynamics (PD) of GHRP-1/AG in subjects with ESRD on HD by following GH and IGF-1; to describe the relationship between GHRP-1 PD and plasma concentrations of GHRP-1 and des-Ala-GHRP-1; and to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of GHRP-1/AG on nutritional status of subjects with ESRD on HD using subjective global assessment of malnutrition inflammation scores (MIS) and changes in caloric intake.
