This is an interventional treatment trial for Central Precocious Puberty

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - 10 Years (Child)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participant is less than 9 years old for girls and less than 10 years old for boys at initiation of triptorelin treatment or at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • Participant must present evidence of CPP documented by:
  • Onset of development of secondary sex characteristics (breast development in girls or testicular enlargement in boys according to the Tanner method: Stage II) before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys.
  • Pubertal response of LH to GnRH stimulation test (stimulated peak LH ≥6 IU/L) in both sexes.
  • Difference between bone age (BA) and CA >1 year.
  • Girls with Tanner staging ≥2 for breast development and who have enlarged uterine length and/or ovarian volume and at last 2 follicles with diameter >4 mm in the ovary observed by pelvic type B ultrasound at the Screening visit; boys who have testicular volume ≥4 mL observed by testicular orchidometer at the Screening visit.
  • Girls who have already had menophania/menarche must have a negative highly sensitive (urine) pregnancy test as required by local regulations within 24 hours before the first dose of study intervention and should not be at risk of pregnancy throughout the study period.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Gonadotropin-independent (peripheral) precocious puberty: extrapituitary secretion of gonadotropins or gonadotropin-independent gonadal or adrenal sex steroid secretion.
  • Non-progressing isolated premature thelarche.
  • Presence of an unstable intracranial tumour or an intracranial tumour requiring neurosurgery or cerebral irradiation. Participants with hamartomas not requiring surgery are eligible.
  • Prior or current therapy with a GnRHa (Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Agonist) , medroxyprogesterone acetate, growth hormone or insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF 1).Use of anticoagulants (heparin and coumarin derivatives) within the 2 weeks prior to the Screening visit.

12. IPD Sharing Statement

Plan to Share IPD
Yes
IPD Sharing Plan Description
Qualified researchers may request access to patient level data and related study documents including the clinical study report, study protocol with any amendments, annotated case report form, statistical analysis plan, and dataset specifications. Patient level data will be anonymized and study documents will be redacted to protect the privacy of study participants. Any requests should be submitted to www.vivli.org for assessment by an independent scientific review board.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
Where applicable, data from eligible studies are available 6 months after the studied medicine and indication have been approved in the US and EU or after the primary manuscript describing the results has been accepted for publication, whichever is later.
IPD Sharing Access Criteria
