- Objective: The European Increlex (R) Growth Forum Database Registry monitors the effectiveness and safety of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 (rhIGF1; mecasermin, Increlex (R)) therapy in patients with severe primary IGF1 deficiency (SPIGFD). We present data from patients with and without a reported genetic diagnosis of Laron syndrome (LS). Design: Ongoing, open-label, observational registry (NCT00903110). Methods: Children and adolescents receiving rhIGF1 therapy from 10 European countries were enrolled in 2008-2017 (n = 242). The treatment-naive/prepubertal (NPP) cohort (n = 138) was divided into subgroups based on reported genetic diagnosis of LS (n = 21) or non-LS (n = 117). Multivariate analysis of the NPP-non-LS subgroup was conducted to identify factors predictive of growth response (first-year-height standard deviation score (SDS) gain >= 0.3). Assessments included change in height and weight over 5 years and adverse events (AEs). Results: Height SDS gain from baseline was greater in the NPP-LS than the NPP-non-LS subgroup after 1 years treatment (P < 0.05). In the NPP-non-LS subgroup, 56% were responders; young age at baseline was a positive independent predictive factor (P < 0.001). NPP-non-LS-responders and the NPP-LS subgroup had a similar mean age (6.07 years vs 7.00 years) at baseline and height SDS gain in year 1 (0.64 vs 0.70), although NPP-non-LS-responders were taller (P < 0.001) at baseline. BMI SDS changes did not differ across subgroups. Treatment-emergent AEs were experienced by 65.3% of patients; hypoglycaemia was most common. Conclusions: In most NPP children with SPIGFD, with or without LS, rhIGF1 therapy promotes linear growth. The safety profile was consistent with previous studies.

- Context The European Increlex & REG; Growth Forum Database (Eu-IGFD) is an ongoing surveillance registry (NCT00903110) established to collect long-term safety and effectiveness data on the use of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 (rhIGF-1, mecasermin, Increlex) for the treatment of children/adolescents with severe primary insulin-like growth factor-1 deficiency (SPIGFD).Objective This analysis of Eu-IGFD data aimed to identify the frequency and predictive factors for hypoglycemia adverse events (AEs) in children treated with rhIGF-1.Methods Data were collected from December 2008 to May 2021. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictive risk factors for treatment-induced hypoglycemia AEs. Odds ratios (ORs) are presented with 95% CIs for each factor.Results In total, 306 patients were enrolled in the registry; 84.6% were diagnosed with SPIGFD. Patients who experienced & GE; 1 hypoglycemia AE (n = 80) compared with those with no hypoglycemia AEs (n = 224) had a lower mean age at treatment start (8.7 years vs 9.8 years), a more frequent diagnosis of Laron syndrome (27.5% vs 10.3%), and a history of hypoglycemia (18.8% vs 4.5%). Prior history of hypoglycemia (OR 0.25; 95% CI: [0.11; 0.61]; P = .002) and Laron syndrome diagnosis (OR 0.36; 95% CI: [0.18; 0.72]; P = .004) predicted future hypoglycemia AEs. Total hypoglycemia AEs per patient per treatment year was 0.11 and total serious hypoglycemia AEs per patient per treatment year was 0.01.Conclusion Hypoglycemia occurs more frequently in patients with prior history of hypoglycemia and/or Laron syndrome compared with patients without these risk factors, and these patients should be carefully monitored for this AE throughout treatment.

- BackgroundPuberty is delayed in untreated children and adolescents with severe primary IGF-1 deficiency (SPIGFD); to date, it has not been reported whether recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 mecasermin (rhIGF-1) treatment affects this. Pubertal growth outcomes were extracted from the European Increlex(R) Growth Forum Database (Eu-IGFD) Registry (NCT00903110). MethodsThe Eu-IGFD Registry includes children and adolescents aged 2 to 18 years with growth failure associated with SPIGFD who are treated with rhIGF-1. Reported outcomes include: age at last registration of Tanner stage 1 and first registration of Tanner stage 2-5 (T2-T5; based on breast development for girls and genital development for boys, respectively); maximum height velocity during each Tanner stage; and pubertal peak height velocity (PPHV). Data cut-off was 13 May 2019. ResultsThis analysis included 213 patients (132 boys and 81 girls). Mean (SD) age at last registration of T1 and first registration of T5 was 13.0 (2.0) and 16.3 (1.6) years, respectively, in boys and 11.6 (1.8) and 14.7 (1.5) years, respectively, in girls. Among patients reaching the end of puberty (25 boys and 11 girls), mean (SD) height SDS increased from -3.7 (1.4) at baseline in the Eu-IGFD Registry to -2.6 (1.4) at T5 in boys and from -3.1 (1.1) to -2.3 (1.5) in girls. Maximum height velocity was observed during T2 in girls and T3 in boys. Median (range) PPHV was 8.0 (0.3-13.0) cm/year in boys and 6.8 (1.3-9.6) cm/year in girls and occurred most frequently during T2. Overall, the adverse events seen in this analysis were in line with the known safety profile of rhIGF-1. ConclusionChildren and adolescents treated with rhIGF-1 for SPIGFD with growth failure experienced an increase in height SDS in prepubertal years compared with baseline. Despite 1.5 years delay in pubertal start and a delayed and slightly lower PPHV, height SDS gain during puberty was maintained.

- OBJECTIVE: To evaluate extended dosing intervals (EDIs) with lanreotide Autogel 120 mg in patients with acromegaly previously biochemically controlled with octreotide LAR 10 or 20 mg.DESIGN AND METHODS: Patients with acromegaly had received octreotide LAR 10 or 20 mg/4 weeks for ≥ 6 months and had normal IGF1 levels. Lanreotide Autogel 120 mg was administered every 6 weeks for 24 weeks (phase 1); depending on week-24 IGF1 levels, treatment was then administered every 4, 6 or 8 weeks for a further 24 weeks (phase 2). Hormone levels, patient-reported outcomes and adverse events were assessed.PRIMARY ENDPOINT: proportion of patients on 6- or 8-week EDIs with normal IGF1 levels at week 48 (study end).RESULTS: 107/124 patients completed the study (15 withdrew from phase 1 and two from phase 2). Of 124 patients enrolled, 77.4% were allocated to 6- or 8-week EDIs in phase 2 and 75.8% (95% CI: 68.3-83.3) had normal IGF1 levels at week 48 with the EDI (primary analysis). A total of 88.7% (83.1-94.3) had normal IGF1 levels after 24 weeks with 6-weekly dosing. GH levels were ≤ 2.5 μg/l in > 90% of patients after 24 and 48 weeks. Patient preferences for lanreotide Autogel 120 mg every 4, 6 or 8 weeks over octreotide LAR every 4 weeks were high.CONCLUSIONS: Patients with acromegaly achieving biochemical control with octreotide LAR 10 or 20 mg/4 weeks are possible candidates for lanreotide Autogel 120 mg EDIs. EDIs are effective and well received among such patients.
