Background: TransCon hGH is a long-acting prodrug of recombinant human GH (hGH) that releases into the blood compartment fully active unmodified hGH. TransCon hGH was shown in two Phase 1 studies and a Phase 2 study in AGHD to be safe and well tolerated and inducing an IGF-I pharmacodynamic response within the normal range throughout the dosing period. This interim analysis consists of 25 patients completing all 6 months of treatment.Objectives: The obje...

Background: Adult GHD results from insufficient growth hormone (GH) secretion from the anterior pituitary gland and may represent either a continuation of childhood-onset GHD or GHD acquired during adulthood. Clinically, adult GHD is associated with central adiposity, decreased lean muscle mass, increased fat mass, decreased bone mineral density, and reduced quality of life. Current standard of care consists of GH replacement via daily injections. Lonapegsomatropin (SKYTROFA; ...

BackgroundHypoparathyroidism is characterized by insufficient levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH), resulting in hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypercalciuria, and a reduced quality of life (QoL). PTH replacement therapy should restore physiologic levels of PTH and restore downstream physiologic levels of calcitriol, promoting independence from Ca and active vitamin D supplements and normalization of QoL. TransCon PTH is an investigational long-acting p...
