Efficacy and Safety of an Oral Growth Hormone Drug in the Treatment of Fibromyalgia
NCT00116129Jul 2005 to Apr 2008
Registry summary
Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.
This is a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of an orally administered growth hormone stimulating drug, (code named MK-0677) in the treatment of female subjects with primary fibromyalgia. The basis for this study is the observation that many fibromyalgia patients are growth hormone deficient; an earlier study of injectable growth hormone had shown benefit in this population of fibromyalgia patients.
