Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

The investigators hypothesize that the anabolic effects of Genotropin (somatropin) will improve the height and weight of children with inflammatory based chronic illness who have failed to grow despite receiving adequate nutrition. The investigators will test the hypothesis by treating 32 chronically ill children (16 JRA and 16 Crohn's) with growth hormone (GH) for 12 months and comparing them to baseline.

Adverse events as posted: participants affected out of participants at risk, by group
GroupDeathsSerious eventsOther events
Somatropinsomatropin \[rDNA origin\] for injection: Genotropin will be started at 0.3 mg/kg/week administered by daily subcutaneous injection. Doses will be increased by weight at each visit. Additionally, we will monitor IGF-1 levels at month 3, and 6 and adjust the Genotropin dose to maintain IGF-1 levels in the 50th -75th percentile for ages.–0 / 00 / 0
