Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Children With Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Suppression to Prepubertal Levels 30 Minutes After Leuprolide Stimulation at Month 6

    This is a lab test to see what percentage of participants were returned to normal before-puberty levels at Month 6.

    Month 6

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Percentage of Children With LH Suppression to Prepubertal Levels 30 Minutes After Leuprolide Stimulation at Months 1, 2, 3, 9 and 12

    at Months 1, 2, 3, 9 and 12

  • Percentage of Children Maintaining LH Suppression at Prepubertal Levels 30 Minutes After Leuprolide Stimulation From Month 6 to 12

    from Month 6 to 12

  • Percentage of Children With LH Suppression (LH ≤ 4 IU/L)30 Minutes After Leuprolide Stimulation at Months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12

    at Months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12

  • Percentage of Children Maintaining LH Suppression at </= 4 IU/L 30 Minutes After Leuprolide Stimulation From Month 6 to 12

    from Month 6 to 12

  • Change From Baseline in Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) at Months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 12

    Baseline to Months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 12

  • +11 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age2 Years - 9 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Onset of development of sex characteristics before 8 and 9 years in girls and boys, respectively (breast development in girls or testicular enlargement in boys according to the Tanner method), and candidate to receive at least 12 months of GnRH agonist therapy after study entry.
  • Aged 2-8 years inclusive (i.e. \< 9 years) for girls and 2-9 years inclusive (i.e. \< 10 years) for boys at initiation of triptorelin treatment.
  • Initiation of triptorelin treatment at the latest 18 months after onset of the first signs of precocious puberty.
  • Difference (Δ) bone age (Greulich and Pyle method) - chronological age ≥ 1 year.
  • Pubertal-type LH response 30 minutes following a GnRH agonist stimulation test before treatment initiation (leuprolide acetate 20 μg/kg SC) ≥ 6 IU/L.
  • Clinical evidence of puberty, defined as Tanner Staging ≥ 2 for breast development for girls and testicular volume ≥ 4 mL (cc) for boys.
  • Informed consent signed by one parent or both parents (as per local requirements), by the liable parent or by the legal guardian (when applicable); assent signed by the child if ≥ 7 years.
  • Gonadotropin-independent (peripheral) precocious puberty: extra pituitary 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. Patients with hamartomas not requiring surgery are eligible.
  • Evidence of renal (creatinine \> 2 x ULN) or hepatic impairment (bilirubin or ASAT \> 3 x ULN).
  • Any other condition or chronic illness or treatment possibly interfering with growth or other study endpoints (e.g. chronic steroid use \[except mild topical steroids\], renal failure, diabetes, moderate to severe scoliosis, previously treated intracranial tumour).
  • Prior or current therapy with a GnRH agonist, medroxyprogesterone acetate, growth hormone or insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF 1).
  • Major medical or psychiatric illness that could interfere with study visits.
  • Diagnosis of short stature, i.e. \> 2.25 SD below the mean height for age.
  • +3 more criteria
