About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Hyperinsulinism focused on measuring endocrine disorders, hyperinsulinism, rare disease

Eligibility Criteria

3 Weeks - 3 Months (Child)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

PROTOCOL ENTRY CRITERIA: --Disease Characteristics-- Diagnosis of hyperinsulinism (i.e., evidence of fasting hypoglycemia with inadequate suppression of insulin, normal pituitary and adrenal function, and increased insulin action) Intractable hypoglycemia (i.e., persistent IV glucose requirement for maintaining glucose levels greater than 60 mg/dL) Failed standard treatment regimen of diazoxide, octreotide, and frequent feedings to control hypoglycemia No other major medical problems

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the dose of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I that minimizes or decreases the need for exogenous glucose support without causing hypoglycemia.
    Detailed Description
    PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study. Patients receive an escalating dose of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). IGF-I is given subcutaneously twice a day. The dose of IGF-I is increased each day for 4 days. Glucose is administered intravenously, when necessary, to prevent hypoglycemia. Following the study treatment patients resume prior medication and may undergo surgery. Completion date provided represents the completion date of the grant per OOPD records
