Summary

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GB08 injection compared to Norditropin NordiFlex in pediatric patients with growth hormone deficiency (PGHD). It seeks to resolve the following questions:

* 1: Does GB08 injection demonstrate comparable efficacy in treating PGHD at 24 weeks compared to Norditropin NordiFlex?
* 2: Which dose (0.4 mg/kg, 0.8 mg/kg, and 1.2 mg/kg) of GB08 injection best balances efficacy and safety in treating PGHD at 24 weeks?
* 3: Does GB08 injection maintain its efficacy in treating PGHD at 52 weeks compared to Norditropin NordiFlex? To achieve these, GB08 injection will be compared to Norditropin NordiFlex to see if it provides a more effective or safer treatment option for PGHD.

This is a Phase II/III, Seamless, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Positive-Comparator Controlled Clinical Trial with two stages. Stage 1 answers questions #1 and #2 by comparing the efficacy and safety of GB08 injection and Norditropin NordiFlex intervention among PGHD at 24 weeks. It involves four groups (n=16 each): GB08 0.4 mg/kg, GB08 0.8 mg/kg, GB08 1.2 mg/kg, and Norditropin NordiFlex 0.035 mg/kg. GB08 and Norditropin NordiFlex will be administered once weekly and once daily, respectively. The primary outcome measurement is annualized height velocity (AHV) at 24 weeks. Other measurements include growth hormone levels, safety parameters, immunogenicity markers, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profiles.

The optimal GB08 dose will be further investigated in Stage 2, which answers question #3. At this stage, PGHD patients will randomly receive either GB08 injection or Norditropin NordiFlex intervention for 52 weeks (n=102 for each). After that, the efficacy and safety of GB08 will also be detected.

  • Growth Hormone

Interventions

DRUG

GB08

In Phase II trial, eligible PGHD patients will receive GB08 0.4mg/kg, 0.8mg/kg, or 1.2mg/kg subcutaneous injection, once a week for 24 weeks. In Phase III trial, the individuals will receive GB08 subcutaneous injection, once a week for 52 weeks. The dose of GB08 at this stage will be determined by the outcomes of Phase II.

DRUG

Norditropin NordiFlex

Norditropin NordiFlex 0.035 mg/kg subcutaneous injection, daily, for 24 weeks (Phase II) or 52 weeks (Phase III)
